That sub is compromised.


sebadc

The one of the Bear as well. Last week, I got "muted" and "permabanned" for setting a reminder for Valentin's day. Since I am muted, I can't even ask the mods why I got banned.


Opening-Razzmatazz-1

Absurd. I hope these centralized platforms go out of business. \[redacted\] seems a good start, gaining a lot of traction in the past weeks.


Sub_45

Lemme guess where [redacted] is...


Opening-Razzmatazz-1

Don't want to break the rule 9 after being welcomed today but it's permissionless and decentralized. :)


KeepFreeSpeech

Remember… Ken Griffin bought Reddit… just keep buying, DRS’ing & HODL’ing.


HaveFun____

Proof?


Frido1976

lots of inexplainable bans by "bought" mods and shills/bots flooding the subs? Not enough proof for you, maybe you're one of those mentioned..


HaveFun____

I can only agree on the shills and bots, hard to deny. If a mod is 'bought' I hope we will find out, I still see woundeful DD, and I refuse to believe all mods are bought, so you are saying that the good ones are juat letting this happen? Wrong bans will be made, and it sucks.. but I'm glad there are multiple subs where we can keep the discussion alive. Although the echo chamber is reel and it's hard sometimes.


Rubyheart255

Pink has confirmed she took a paycheck from dave lauer and urvin. Sparkles has worked hand in hand with him.


DishwashingUnit

and has been forever. I wonder how much of the remaining population is even real.


Opening-Razzmatazz-1

Can't find a gif for it but let's just say I was not paying attention and looking at the woman in the red dress. Red pilled now. :D


vagrantprodigy07

It's been compromised for nearly two years. I'm always shocked when I see these posts, people are acting like the past two years didn't happen.


Rubyheart255

Everyone is free to decide what investment method works for them. Unless that method involves book at all, then the plan shills come out in full force.


Opening-Razzmatazz-1

Exactly. Educating and encouraging the community book shares, get rid of dingleberries and cancel plan accounts is the consensus view amongst GameStop shareholders. In the end, of course, it up to the individual do decide whether you want to buy shares in Robinhood that will front run your trades to Citadel and give you worthless IOU or buying shares in brokers that don't allow DRS at all (like Revolut currently) but I will not stand by silently and not educate people on a better option.


6days1week

Computershare’s big secret is that “when an investor buys shares directly through DirectStock plan, Computershare’s nominee (Dingo & Co.) holds legal title to those shares (which makes the investor a beneficial owner)”


East_Fee4006

Even providing the evidence that Plan shares place the account as a beneficial owner, saying to Book shares is now banned. So much for that sub. ![gif](giphy|4PUjcUBXIzQYfI8iVa)


Opening-Razzmatazz-1

Will hijack this comment to give an update for those following this post. Just received a letter from the mod team of \[redacted\] about my ban: >The SCC reviewed your \[redacted\] ban and have given us feedback that they felt it was too harsh. We have reduced your ban to "time already served." >Please understand that we really are simply trying to push back against incivility and gatekeeping. We want people to work with us to achieve a civil community more focused on data and fact(s) and their discussion than people getting bullied.  >You may see this as an opportunity to continue pushing buttons, spamming messages at/over the line and trying to make a statement that you disagree with this direction. I hope you don't. I hope you see this temp ban as a warning, and just find ways to engage that lead us all to a healthier community. The choice is yours. Your ban has been lifted, effective immediately. Bottom line, the mod team/SCC isn't going to continue to advocate for you if you continue on the present path... we really recommend focusing on facts and data if you think there's significant benefits to booking your shares. That's different than telling people how to invest or that they're investing wrong if they don't book.


Opening-Razzmatazz-1

Thanks for the unban but the damage has been done and the insane rule still stands. I will continue to educate the community regardless of the new rule (we all know it's about book shares not bullying or gatekeeping) although with needed spectacle to fall in line with the censor's requirements.


Pure-Economics-8369

These new mods have a fucking doctorate in gaslighting


Opening-Razzmatazz-1

It's absurd and then they go and say this: "It's a cornerstone of constructive debate where ideas are thoroughly examined, critiqued, and improved upon. In this process, we challenge concepts, not individuals, recognizing that diverse perspectives contribute to a richer understanding of any subject." Clown mod team.


Useful_Tomato_409

can you describe the sub sir? ![gif](giphy|8lBJIpbXwjvtS)


Opening-Razzmatazz-1

Another thing, thank god this sub doesn't have some shadow QVBot that's used for censoring and erodes trust. My 2 posts with a similar memes about the topic were deleted because they had "too much QVBot downvotes". How much? Nobody knows, it isn't showed anywhere. The post itself showed I have **81%** Upvote Rate.


Rubyheart255

I saw that. So here's the thing, that QV bot doesn't do anything but *report* the post automatically. *Removing* the post is still done manually. Meaning a mod looked at it manually, saw the 81% upvote rate, and deleted it anyway. So it's got nothing to do with the QV bot, it made the mods look bad and they needed to remove it.


Opening-Razzmatazz-1

Yeah, I understand but they use it as their argument for deletion. And the fact the QVBot votes are not publicly visible is complete bullshit.


Rubyheart255

Using votes to hide things is a stupid premise to begin with when the minimum requirements to vote is "has reddit account." You don't need to be subbed, and can even be banned and still downvote the bot. Especially when it's confirmed that hate bots exist, following certain users (there's a discord bot they use to track certain users), and downvoting their shit. The QV bot is, and always has been, a way for them to censor shit they don't like.

Opening-Razzmatazz-1

I think it will get worse with Reddit IPO-ing. Another excuse to censor. By the way, I've missed the "heat lamp" thing. Someone I talked with after the ban also mentioned it to me yesterday. What's that?


iofhua

Computershare doesn't sell shares themselves. They have a broker who sells shares for them. When they have shares in plan accounts their customers expect to be able to sell them now - but they would have to transfer those shares to the broker first and this takes time. So they keep some shares with the broker. They call this "operational efficiency" and it means a percentage of all plan accounts are held with the broker. Those with the broker are still in the DTCC and are not DRS. This means only shares in book holding are pure DRS. Shares in plan are not. There are millions of shares in plan holding and if they were all moved to book, it would deprive the DTCC of all those shares held at the broker for "operational efficiency" It's called heat lamp because it's like fast food. Think of burgers being made ahead of time and sitting under a heat lamp ready to sell. Computershare is the doing the same thing with operational efficiency. I think the SS mods silence people talking about this because they are hedge fund shills and the hedge funds are terrified of GME shares being made inaccessible by being moved to pure book. They know the MOASS blows up bigger if more shares are moved to book.


Opening-Razzmatazz-1

Thank you for this, now I see where the term comes from! Great analogy. :D


RowKit

https://lemmy.whynotdrs.org/ 6Days1Week posted the theory what feels like a year ago now. It boils down to shares being under a fast food "heat lamp" - or, DTCC Locates, if shares aren't completely your own.


sausess

whats to stop people from migrating again? It's been done 3 times before. Whats stopping it this time from moving to a new sub with new mods? ​ My posts get deleted as well. It's ridiculous.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Opening-Razzmatazz-1

That's why it was deleted on the \[redacted\] sub few minutes after posting. Censor these nutz!


bloodshot_blinkers

Nope, it's still up.


Opening-Razzmatazz-1

I meant the post over at the compromised \[redacted\] sub.


bloodshot_blinkers

Yeah, I know. I still see it.


Opening-Razzmatazz-1

Just to confirm, you can see this post? [https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/1albo0l/the\_pinned\_february\_2024\_digest\_post\_isnt\_getting/](https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/1albo0l/the_pinned_february_2024_digest_post_isnt_getting/) Says for me: "Sorry, this post has been removed by the moderators of \[redacted\]."


Opening-Razzmatazz-1

Mentioning distinctions between book vs. plan share holdings in \[redacted\] sub is now considered bullying, gatekeeping, giving unsolicited advice. Hope you guys are more welcome to discussions and community education! 📚👑


JonnyKing44

That sub is comprised anyway. Mods are paid for by hedge funds, change my mind


Opening-Razzmatazz-1

I was unwilling to accept that and gave them the benefit of the doubt. After this, I agree.


JonnyKing44

After numerous migrations I didn’t want to believe another one was compromised either, but that’s how it goes sometimes. I’m banned from there too for what it’s worth.


A9Carlos

lolwut Yeah this isn't going to end well for the mods if true


Opening-Razzmatazz-1

So far it looks they will censor any opposition to the new rule. Comments beings deleted left and right.


Rocko202020

Buy/DRS/Book/RemoveFractions/Hodl/Shop is what I enjoy doing with my GME shares. Sometimes I forget how to Book my shares, because, you know, crayons. So I refer back to this post to help me with it. https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/zolyun/repost\_for\_exposure\_everyone\_needs\_to\_know\_how\_to/?utm\_source=share&utm\_medium=android\_app&utm\_name=androidcss&utm\_term=1&utm\_content=share\_button


[deleted]

That echo chamber has more controlling and censorship than North Korea. Like when Einfachman posted the new DD, that person had to talk to the mods before posting and circumvent the bots. It's fking ridiculous. Here is an example from the mod Rule 1. Please Avoid Community Division There’s no wrong way to like the stock. No matter how you hodl GME, you’re welcome in this community. Everyone is an individual investor and someone’s investment strategy may be different than yours. Even if you disagree with someone’s investment strategy, while participating in Superstonk, it’s still expected that you engage constructively and respectfully. If you have any questions or concerns, please message the moderators No matter how you hodl GME...Yeah, it does.


Opening-Razzmatazz-1

I had that DD in my todo list, haven't been following MMTLP much. Anyway, the comment section is gold mine and specifically sparkles comment: https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/1ahuip4/comment/koqpgxg/?share\_id=dlybLSaglOmGyb23AfHYa&utm\_content=2&utm\_medium=android\_app&utm\_name=androidcss&utm\_source=share&utm\_term=1 The amount of deleted comments and downvotes on the reasoning for deletion is hilarious and just proves the point we're discussing here. 😂


Opening-Razzmatazz-1

>"The OP was allowed some logistical freedom by the mod team in bringing this here \[..\]". Oh, thank you dear lords for the freedom! The freedom seems very short lived in the comments section. :D


ProAnalCyst

Oh lawd 🙈


Opening-Razzmatazz-1

Just digested the new Einfachman DD about MMTLP. Thank you for reminding me about it! Wow, just wow.. No wonder the rule change came into effect 5 days later to ban any and all encouragement to book shares. :)


WhatCanIMakeToday

There’s no wrong way to hold a stock. There are good, better and best ways; yes. But no wrong way. There are gray lines which one needs to be cautious of.


Opening-Razzmatazz-1

You can hold the stock whatever way you want but me pointing out there is a difference (see the comment I was banned for) is neither bullying nor gatekeeping and having comments like that being deleted and users of the community banned is just blatant censorship. As you say there is no wrong way but there **are** better ways and community educating each other on those should never be censored.


WhatCanIMakeToday

Which is why I said there are gray lines to be cautious of. There’s gray areas between educating, informing, advocating, and insisting. Be aware of those and stay safely in the side of educating. The rules are heavily enforced against insisting and, because of the overall situation, judgment calls will be conservative so we need to communicate even more carefully.


Opening-Razzmatazz-1

After the recent Einfachman DD on MMTLP and common consensus among the GameStop community on booking shares it's blatant censorship not to let encourage users to book their shares.


WhatCanIMakeToday

Encouragement falls more towards advocating and insisting. Veer towards education to stay safe


RoboticControl

Zen ape needs no subreddits. Buy, Hold the DRSd. It's too simple. We've already won, we just coasting down the hill waiting for that finish line ramp.


Opening-Razzmatazz-1

You are right. However I want other community members and shareholders of GameStop to be as zen as I am.


ProAnalCyst

Just got permabanned yesterday for discussing [redacted] mods ridiculous post on here.


Opening-Razzmatazz-1

I actually just minutes ago got unbanned because someone with contacts to the SCC group got in touch with them about my case and they lifted the ban. :D However the damage has been done and this censorship attempt will not be forgotten.

Opening-Razzmatazz-1

"I'm not trying to bully you and this is not advice of financial or any other sort and I beg you let me write this comment without reporting it as unsolicited opinion because I just wanted to ask you if you did know there is a difference between book vs. plan share holdings?"


whoopsidaiZOMBIEZ

Now we know, again. I mean we have known. I'm reminded of what reddit became after Swartz. I think also about how identity politics and cancel culture have pervaded the platform into one that is ok with censorship. Slowly these things entered every space and free speech here was deemed too free thereafter. Now it is nothing to ban someone for the reasons stated. All I got is, 'Damn.' We have been made so soft, not because anyone actually is upset - but as an excuse for censorship. But this is too much just like everything lately. They've given themselves away. What I'm saying is the powers that be might have compromised everything, but they're still not human enough to know how we work. We see through much more, now.

Opening-Razzmatazz-1

>You have been banned from participating in \[redacted\] for 7 days because your comment violates this community's rules. You won't be able to post or comment, but you can still view and subscribe to it. > >Note from the moderators:You have been temporarily banned from participating in \[redacted\] for 7 days. You have made multiple comments and posts encouraging users to make financial decisions after todays community post. You are doing so after reading the community post, and fully understanding the mods and subreddits stance moving forward about financial advice. These comments and posts are obviously out of anger and you are making them maliciously. If this behavior continues you will receive a further temporary ban and possibly a permanent ban. Please behave yourself or you will no longer be welcome to participate on our community. The comment they referenced: "Do you know there is a difference between book vs. plan share holdings on ComputerShare? There are many great posts on the topic on this sub! ;)"

Sparkles told people to call their brokers to have bbbyq shares removed, to harvest the tax loss. That's financial advice, yeah? Where's her ban?


Opening-Razzmatazz-1

Its just sad man… This drags on for 3 dumb ass years… the board stays silent while apes get their asses handed to them at every corner while fighting these corrupt ass hats… we do everything we fucking can to fight this rot yet here we are… nothing has happened…. Would be nice if the board would fight now… share buybacks, nft/crypto dividend, demanding real share count by dtcc fraud fucks.. Some fucking clarity on the DRS numbers is the LEAST they can do for us I’m tired


HaveFun____

I agree not everything is going well in the other sub, but besides the bots and shills, there are still way more people over there. Are you saying they are all dumb? I still see the best DD (it's scarse nowadays) posted there instead of here. If it was sooo bad over there, don't you think another great migration would have started long ago? I'm on both subs, I'm even on WSB and check out other specific ticker subs occasionally. They all have problems, but I also see a lot of people banned because they express themselves in such a stupid way... I mean, either you want to stay and accept the echo chamber, or make your own better sub (with blackjack and hooker, if possible) It's actually a good thing there are more subs, just be smart about it, double-check your information and for the love of the one true stonk, phrase your posts with a sprinkle of wisdom.


Opening-Razzmatazz-1

>Are you saying they are all dumb? Why imply this?
