you guys are out here deleting people who are against this stupid protest? Don't worry I'm gone. Like most of the community you're letting down with this. DE relied on the massive community for posts and engagement. Disappointed to say the least.
I removed the post because I didn't feel that a post that only mentions the blackout in general is relevant here. There was no intent to silence voices that speak out against the protest of r/Warframe specifically.
Discussing the r/Warframe subreddit specifically will be allowed on /c/warframe for now. r/Warframe will be opening up in a restricted form on June 21st, when the 7 Crimes of Kullervo update releases.
The blackout was aimed to build a better environment for every community out there, so that you don’t have to scroll through 3 “He gets us” ads before you can see your beloved Wisp’s assets. If you cared about the Warframe community so much then help build a good one here. Be the change you want to see in the world.
If you think you can do a better job than the mods you are free to open your own warframe-themed subreddit and moderate it. You have no right to demand anything of the mods when most of the community is backing them up in this too.
Most of the community? Hardly. How many members were in the reddit? How many are here? Edit. Just looked. Less than one thousand people. Can you do me a favor and remind me how many were on the reddit?
Why would I, it's not my argument to make. If you have problem with the protest open your own subreddit as you've already been told to, you are not entitled to free moderation services.
As for DE's reliance on the community, have you completely forgotten their own forums? Yes indeed, they have their own place for the community to come to give feedback. They don't have to rely on reddit for that.
I went to find Warframe info on Reddit yesterday and couldn't due to the lockdown (obviously). I just swapped my search criteria elsewhere and ended up in the Warframe forums with the answer I needed. People need to come to the realization that Reddit won't be around forever and you need to also be able to find information in other places as well, it's a good skill to have in life.
I would like to have the subreddit set to read-only so I could see old threads, but if the mods decide that a full blackout is better, hey it's their subreddit. (Until spez kicks them off and installs a puppet mod team at least)
There is no irreplaceable content on the original warframe sub, and a lot of people are more than happy to help/answer questions anyways. There isn't an excess of posts drowning anything out either so if someone has an answer to your question, there's a good chance you probably won't have to wait too long for a response.
You're probably better off looking at the wiki anyways for information, Reddit is horrible as an aggregator. Usually you have to use Google to find a specific post from Reddit, and even their search results have been returning less relevant results.
