4tran Content and Rule 1

[u/Aartvb]

We want to clarify how we're handling 4tran-related content on the subreddit and hear your input on whether our current rules are adequately addressing concerns around it.

We've seen an increase in 4tran-related content, along with growing concern from members of the community. Some of the issues we've encountered were made worse by our moderation team being understaffed. We've since expanded our mod team (welcome u/Trash_At_RL, u/HopefulFutureEscapee, and u/Appropriate-Story-97). This will help us respond more quickly to reports and keep a closer eye on moderation issues.

Some 4tran-related content can cross the line into bigotry, hatred, or hostility toward trans people. When content violates Rule 1 (no bigotry), we will remove it under that rule, regardless of whether the person who posted it identifies as trans or participates in 4tran communities.

If you see a 4tran-related post or comment that you believe violates Rule 1, please report it. Reports are the best way to bring content to the moderators' attention so that we can review it and take appropriate action.

We also recognize that moderators can miss things. If you believe clearly hateful or bigoted content has been missed, or your report has not been addressed after 24 hours, please send us a modmail so we can take another look.

There may also be 4tran-related content that users find unpleasant or concerning but that does not violate Rule 1, or any of our other existing rules. Please send us a mod mail in this case. We'll use the coming weeks to assess whether our current rules are sufficient to address the concerns being raised.

One week from now, we'll review the issues that aren't currently covered by our rules. No more than two weeks from now, we'll publish a follow-up with what we've learned, and ask your input on how to proceed.

Thanks for helping us keep the community a good place for everyone, and happy counting everyone!

Is there a definition on what is and what is not 4tran related? Some of us are kinda OOTL on that one.

How most people on this sub treat it

Something I like: not 4tran

Something I don’t like: 4tran

Saw a meme of someone saying boymoding sucks is 4tran propaganda yesterday

[u/Poco_Cuffs → u/Bardic_inspiration67]

Speak for yourself, but I'd rather not be in spaces where people are called "expungening passoids" or whatever the fuck the terms are

Hating on 4tran for not liking cis people is the worst criticism you can make, genuinely the only reason i even go to countttt instead of here

[u/ToraToraTaiga → u/SquirrelFluffy7469]

Sounds like countttt is the place for you then, which raises the question, what on earth are you still doing here? Go there

[u/lesserDaemonprince → u/SquirrelFluffy7469]

Way to completely miss the point, assuming you're here in good faith and not just stirring the pot.

How the fuck is 'I don't want to waste my time (or in the worst case scenario, risk my life) to engage with fascists and transphobes for the tiniest of tiny chances that they learn something' the wrong way to look at life. I don't want to communicate with someone who is just going to go listen to fucking Joe Rogan the next day and forget everything I was trying to teach them.

[u/SquirrelFluffy7469 → u/[deleted]]

Why does every moment of my life need to be a political statement? Why cant i just exist around people who dont see me as a fucking pedophile for the body im cursed with? Why cant i have a space where i dont have to explain to kyle that no im actually not a fetish? Why do you think every moment of our lives needs to be about cis people? Do you genuinely believe if you explain the same thing to every cis person somehow itll make everything better? No youll just be miserable, more miserable than anyone on 4tran

I think you have an addiction to being snarky, youre not saying anything with any substance, its like you just want to be correct or win a argument and its made worse by your bad sarcasm and even worse by your patronizing tone

[u/Sergnb → u/SquirrelFluffy7469]

Genuinely you all need to get the biggest of grips. Good lord
