Archive link for the mod statement. From the statement itself:
Anyway, here are some things to keep in mind:
- Gore and pornography are still not allowed in /r/PICS.
- Remain civil toward one another.
- Do not violate the site-wide rules.
- This link directs back to this comment.
- It is normal to experience special feelings while looking at John Oliver.
There’s some chance that Reddit Inc. replaces r/pics mods with someone else, due to NSFW’ing the community, so they might need to give in.
Even then the move should show how fucking huge of a difference there is between the global rules being enforced vs. what they want you to believe on. i.e. that the mod code of conduct is toilet paper.
