Hello Everyone,

First, this is NOT the purge week announcement. That will be coming soon, at some point over the next 14 days. The exact date and time of the announcement is CLASSIFIED: NOFORN. But given purge week was confusing for some people last year we thought we'd give you a little heads up this time round.

Once a year, when the stars align, the moon is in retrograde, and the mods feel like it, PPD declares Purge Week.

The official announcement will come as a sticky thread like this one and will replace it over the next 10 days. From the moment of the announcement and for 7 days all PPD rules are suspended and mods kick back and open a cold one to enjoy the fun. During purge week EVERYTHING we normally mod away is allowed, with the exception of breaking permanent reddit wide rules.

So no kiddie porn or upskirt shots please. We still have to mod that lest we get the whole sub zapped by an admin.

Other than this, go nuts. Be Uncivil. Circlejerk. Settle old scores. Settle new scores. Settle scores of indeterminate length. Shitpost. Link Drop. Write really shitty OPs about how you're misunderstood and how the world owes you a break. Troll. Downvote. Whatever.

No need to report anything that doesn't break reddit wide rules because MODS NO LONGER CARE.

Then, when the week is up, there will be a "Purge End" announcement and Nazi Mods are back, baby! Refreshed, re-equipped with shiny new green jackboots, and itching to zap everyone breaking the rules all over again.

Please use this thread to say "Yassssssss" and/or otherwise ask questions or make plans for Purge Week.

It's coming.

Soon.
