Here's how to get rid of SRS for good.

Amunium · 2012-07-14T09:56:08+00:00

I'm not sure I understand how this is supposed to help. Doesn't it just filter out anyone actively mentioning SRS, which is very few of their trolls?

LeSpatula · 2012-07-14T12:54:34+00:00

But I like SRS. It is like another r/bestof but with the added bonus of self-righteous and (often) misplaced indignation. I think it is hilarious. "Look how offended I am by this comment!"

"Oh my god! How terrible! But I am more offended than you!"

"Impossible. Nobody could be more offended than me, that is misogyny. You are banned."

SRS is great.

Edit: this comment got me banned pre-emptively. Awesome.

I have RES but have never needed to filter SRS because I'm still yet to see a single SRS post. How? I don't subscribe there. Problem solved.

Also, posts like these are just feeding trolls. Though 90% of /r/MR these days is just feeding trolls and it sucks.

Viktour · 2012-07-14T11:47:41+00:00

What has this got to do with men's rights?

Faryshta · 2012-07-14T10:33:52+00:00

Hidding the head won't make the problem disappear.

aidinabedi · 2012-07-14T12:55:41+00:00

I didn't even know SRS existed until this post. If you don't agree with them, or want to filter them, then why not just ignore them and stop giving them attention.

2012-07-14T13:34:55+00:00

Damn i always thought srs was just a collection of funny shit people said haha [8]

DramaDramaLlama · 2012-07-14T18:21:34+00:00

Or you could just like, ignore them anyway. Not posting and a handful of people blocking them from their Reddit view won't make them magically go away. It's like an ostrich burying their head in the sand.

Grapeban · 2012-07-14T10:49:48+00:00

I don't think SRS will care, it's not there for you, it's there for them, it won't matter to them if they live in a bubble. In fact, that's sort of the point, to create a safe bubble.

AmpyeriDracula · 2012-07-14T15:23:51+00:00

Just a little question: Wouldn't it be better to just not give a fuck about SRS? You're just bringing them the attention they need right now.

NoxiousNick · 2012-07-14T12:53:13+00:00

What? I browse /r/all pretty much everyday and end up going down into the top 500 or even top 1000 posts sometimes. If I absolutely hate a subreddit that shows up everyday, I add it to the blocked subreddits list. I've never seen SRS on /r/all before. Only the people who say they don't like it.

Klokateer · 2012-07-14T18:38:02+00:00

It took me one silly little comment after 1 minutes of discovering SRS to get perma banned for "having hate in my heart".

liberallysprinkled · 2012-07-14T11:40:08+00:00

Redditor for 2 hours? Agenda, much?

This won't get rid of SRS, it'll just stop you seeing them, or posts that mention them.

It's like thinking that if you close your eyes, the world disappears.

Rhynovirus · 2012-07-14T17:37:38+00:00

I subscribe to SRS. Contrary to their intended effect, they have a knack for finding the best and funniest threads on Reddit.

Thanks, SRS, for helping me find the best Reddit has to offer!

I hardly ever hear about this subreddit

Stereotypographer · 2012-07-14T16:11:27+00:00

Be sure to add r/atheism while you're there!

malignantbacon · 2012-07-14T16:59:08+00:00

Downvoted because SRS isn't that big a problem anyway and this does almost nothing for discussion of men's rights. Subreddit drama sucks. Let's not go there.

RC_5213 · 2012-07-15T02:29:01+00:00

But what if we enjoy watching SRS get steaming mad over everything and anything?

gustavocortez · 2012-07-14T19:21:49+00:00

Say what you want about SRS, but it gives me the unique ability to see the funniest comments on reddit without looking for them.

Windex007 · 2012-07-14T19:48:23+00:00

Frankly I don't think they go far enough: I want to start /r/shitshitredditsayssays so that I can grab all the stuff they're upset about and get upset about how they aren't upset enough about it.

ENTP · 2012-07-14T16:24:43+00:00

Actually, SRS hates transgender people, too. This is evidenced by the demodding and banning of a mod of SRSwomen due to their genderqueer identity. Zhe was banned for sometimes identifying as a man.

Also, the homage by their top mod, ArchangelleDworkin, to a famous transphobe and trans-hater, Andrea Dworkin, is PROOF that SRS hates trans people.

brainburger · 2012-07-14T15:48:12+00:00

Why bother? If SRS have something of worth to say, which they do sometimes, then read it. If not just ignore them. It's not like all reddit comments are full of value.

You are just advertising that they are getting to you.

glassuser · 2012-07-14T14:23:58+00:00

They still refuse to make RES for IE. Not much care until they fix that.

2012-07-14T16:25:27+00:00

Here's how to deal with SRS:

When you encounter an SRS'er, ignore them.
When you see someone talking about SRS, come at them with this:

Seriously? SRS? You know they're just a bunch of trolls that hide behind a thinly veiled act of fighting sexism and racism to legitimize their trolling, right?

That's it. Ignore them and implore others to do the same.

2012-07-14T21:20:23+00:00

Sarge shotgun blast to the face isn't a legitimate tactic- However, I'm wondering here.

fiffers · 2012-07-15T15:28:23+00:00

You misspelled "planet," and you accused them of taking fringe comments to get indignant about while you're doing the same thing here, taking a fringe subreddit to rally out of existence.

I don't think I'll check in again on this subreddit for a while.

kill_dano · 2012-07-14T17:16:43+00:00

Have all my downvotes

Dolanduckaroo · 2012-07-14T19:12:38+00:00

I think we should have someone infiltrate SRS and become an "archangel" mod. Destroy them from within. Bonus points if the mod is a white heterosexual male.

SSJAmes · 2012-07-14T17:09:58+00:00

This should be upvoted to the front page.
