Meme Channel Guidelines and Moderation Policies

/archive/votes/bots/ · last edited 01 Feb 2018 · Partnerships

The Meme Channel on Rizzaster is intended as a space for light-hearted, creative content that aligns with the community’s general tone. It should remain distinct from other channels by focusing on humor, pop culture references, and short-form content that doesn’t require extended discussion. Posts should be appropriate for all ages within the server, avoiding anything that could be interpreted as offensive, discriminatory, or otherwise harmful. Moderators should be prepared to remove content that falls outside these boundaries, even if it's in the spirit of humor.

We’ve agreed that inside jokes, local references, and low-effort humor are acceptable, but we must avoid anything that could be seen as mocking or degrading. This includes but is not limited to jokes about personal issues, mental health, or sensitive topics. The channel should remain a place where users can feel safe and welcome, even when they’re being silly. We’re also considering whether to allow meme formats that include images or videos—so far, we’ve leaned toward allowing them, but we’ll need to keep an eye on file size and spam potential.

One open question is whether to permit users to post memes they find online, especially those that might be controversial or have been previously removed from other platforms. This could lead to potential conflicts if the meme’s origin is unclear. Another consideration is how often the channel should be monitored—given the high volume of posts, we may need to rely on automated tools or assign specific moderators to check it regularly. We also need to decide whether to use the channel for server-wide announcements or keep it strictly for user-generated content.
