[xpost]All that's wrong with the MR subreddit

Your criticisms would be a lot more effective if you didn't make it so obvious you were trying to steal readers away from this site to prop up your own.

You are the creator and mod of the competing sub where this was originally posted. By you.

I just have one question, what do you gain by trying to split us apart?

All that's wrong with the "rights4men" subreddit:

Stupid name. 4 = for??? What are you, 12?
Stupid logo. Oh look, an awkwardly positioned stock silhouette holding a scale. No, that's totally not poorly executed derivative work.
Stupid posts, like this one, or this one.
Nearly everything on the frontpage has a score of "0"...yet the mod is complaining about r/MR having "goofy up/downvotes".
A group of 24 people seem to think they're the only "true" MRAs...lol
They're obviously homophobic as evidenced by their strange fascination with excluding gays.
Since they only have 24 people -- as opposed to 23,000 -- they will be easily destroyed by trolls.

Oh wow a new men's rights subreddit.

It has 25 members and none of that pesky egalitarianism or equal rights. You are free to hate and despise anyone who isn't a member of your little clique.

Congratulations you just created /r/feminisms for men.

That looks like the stormfront version of /r/mensrights.

I don't see how the posts the number 3 are goofy.

I also don't see much wrong with the way MR mods operate, its a free speech zone in there so their personality doesn't really matter to me as long as they continue with the hands off approach.

Is not a reason to leave its a reason to stay so we can continue building up a solid user base to combat people who interfere with /r/mr in a hostile manner.

I do think we need a better logo though and a better phrase but I've been at a loss at what to recommend else I would have started a thread.

Also your userbase is clearly smaller than /MR is that not a weakness, won't you be more vulnerable to outside subreddits? Also to me your description seems a bit restrictive it will also keep you small in the future, what do you offer that /r/mr does not have and do better?

Quite frankly I'm glad that guys like this are alienating themselves from us.

Fuck off loser, if you can do better, then it's competition time!

You should have some balls to define your stance on men's rights issues, instead of being a bunch of bitches and whining about r/mensrights.
