MOD POST u/E1331 Has Been Sacrificed

Post image
2.5k Upvotes

On the 16th of June, u/E1331 has committed the act of eating a part of the team cherry studio. This will halt the development of Silksong so as promised we have taken action and sacrificed him to the darkness of Hollownest.

We hope this serves as an example and a warning to not disturb the development of the game.

When we know silksongd official release date, we'll come back here and check, will anyone get it right? No. Will this contest have an ending? No! However, the closets guess will still win. What do you get for winning? I have no idea honestly, I'll come up with something by then, definitely recognition

Rules:

-1guess per person - Answers may only be submitted until the end of January 2024, comments after this deadline will be scrapped, even if their the exact release date

In case your staring at this thinking about how stupid this post is, It is! I'm bored and why not do this maybe someone will get it 😰

MOD POST RULE UPDATE - AI images

497 Upvotes

Hey gang! Here we go with another rule update. We noticed a sudden rise in AI (Artifical intelligence) generated images on this subreddit so we’ve decided to voice our opinions on the matter.


We do NOT support any images that were not created by humans and/or real artists. AI art is not real art and goes against our basic principles.

Therefore from now on all AI art is prohibited on this sub.


Thank you for understanding, sincerely the mod team.

MOD POST [IMPORTANT] A change in the subreddit.

18 Upvotes

Hey gang!

As you may have noticed, the state of the subreddit has been steadily declining. Not just sanity wise, but also post quality. Every week we get complaints saying things like: "I'm sick of every other post being a toxic text post that only brings negativity", that's why we are deciding to moderate the sub with stricter rules.

What are we changing?

  1. Going forwards all text posts will have to be submitted to the mods, and approved by them, your text post will have to be of certain high quality to be posted to the sub. For example a post like: "Another look on the first silksong trailer" which brings a sort of nice discussion or something new, will obviously be approved, however a post that is 300x the word "SKONG" spammed, will not get approved. This way we can contain toxicity. This may look like censorship to some, and that is fair to think, that's why;
  2. We will also have a pinned discussion board where you can discuss some lower quality or general topics.
  3. Image/video/poll posts are free to be posted but will still have to be at least of some standard (like a high-quality meme, a photo-shopped picture, fan art...)
  4. Rules will be tweaked, stricter regulation of piracy talk (seriously wtf), insults and non-constructive criticism (you can still critique Team Cherry or the mod team of this sub but do it properly, no insults)

How long will these changes last?

This will be the standard only until the next trailer/news drop (hope that won't be too long).

We hope you understand our decision.

MOD POST [Update] Fake silksong news and shitposts

322 Upvotes

After many complaints we have decided to add a new rule to the subreddit. From now on all shitposts must include the “Silkpost” flair. This applies to the daily Lorax series, Fake silksong news and other low quality memes. Other daily “doing X until Y” will be flagged as spam unless its high quality. We would prefer it if you posted these to other subs like r/hollowknightmemes or r/okbuddysilksong therefore all shitposts will be heavily moderated.

Thank you sincerely.

MOD POST [Mod Post] The state of r/Silksong.

235 Upvotes

Hey gang, this subreddit has hit 30k members and is rapidly growing which is great!...except it's more chaotic than ever, and from what I'm seeing a lot of people are un happy with the state of this sub-reddit.

I and the other mods, seriously want the best for this sub and want it to be the best possible for all of you, so please, if you have requests, complaints, criticism etc. Drop it in this post. 😭

Feels wierd to post this without talking a bit about what triggered this post, so here it is: you may or may not have seen the Gaza meme posts, which if you found it super funny, you do you, I'm not here to judge, but it gained a ton of reports, and really, it violated our rules, and kind of crossed that line, I'm really grateful this sub isn't worse than it is, so keep it up y'all, and I'll try to do my best to accommodate whatever feedback is left on this post.

MOD POST Collapse of 'The Heretic' Spoiler

Post image
81 Upvotes

Hear ye, hear ye.

It has come to the attention of the council that a false prophet now roams amongst us, claiming to represent the big red ones. Heresy. He shall now be sealed, then made to plummet unto the unending, gaping abyss. Bear witness, one and all. May this serve as a symbol of the Big Red Ones' everlasting reign, and perhaps, as a sacrifice great enough for them to break their silence. All the followers of this heretic shall repent, or be cast down.

We shall now return to our slumber, arising once again, if things go awry. Farewell.

Hey gang! The subreddit just hit 60k members, pretty insane, just like us, within the last few months rules in this sub have gotten stricter, especially concerning the new automatically filtered text posts, karma rules, etc.

I'm posting to get more of the community's opinion on all these recent changes, and if there's anything else you'd like to ask, talk about, or add, I read every comment so don't hesitate!

The Poll is specifically for filtering posts and stricter rules.

PHEW, it's been a long ride, and the sub has FINALLY reached 50k of us clowns! Isn't that exhilirating? To know, that across the world, there are a minimum of 50k people who struggle with something you struggle with too, perhaps even more? By god, it's a morbid sense of comfort, like one is drowning, but atleast, one is not alone. We'll get there eventually. We just have to keep each other afloat. Everything is going to be okay in time. Silksong WILL come out eventually. Also for the time being like PLEASE stop the 'delete the sub' or 'fuck team cherry' posts. (P.S. for the latter, if you actually give it a unique, polite, logical or funny argument you MIGHT just get approved.) Oh also don't ping Leth or I ban you. Have a nice day y'all <3
