Thank you to the moderators of this sub!

Meta

I think not many people know what work/effort is being done behind the scenes to keep this big sub going as good & clean as only possible.

There has been criticism in the past that trolls are not really being removed from the sub etc. - also from my end.

But I must really say that I have witnessed very good caretaking of many issues on a day to day basis over the last 6 months.

True shitposts get identified as accurately and as quick as possible, yet controversial discussions are not being censored or inhibited.

So yeah, not much more to say than Thanks! to the mods and keep up the good work. I didn't put much creative effort into this post, I simply think they deserve an explicitly stated "thanks" once in a while!

Yep the mods are great, and impartial. I know because I've been banned more times than I can count already. :D

Love your videos, you have a real talent for finding the truth and identifying trends among the sea of PR BS and flawed testing methodologies.

Don't let stuff like an occasional ban get you down.

Keep up the good work!

When did you say anything worth getting a ban for? Imo. you‘re only guilty of wild speculation. :D

But he usually announces it when he does. It's not like speculations are generally presented as facts.

i think they are too fast removing troll posts ;), there are some really good responses that dont get many upvotes because the post is removed within 10 minutes

but i think there shouldn't be any wrong signals sent out ;)

yeah i agree.it improved a lot. it used to be horrible a while ago. that was around the time the realAMD subreddit was created.

After a few weeks i never went back to realAMD not worth a visit i thought it was another useless sub reddit and still think so.

There have been some very strange decisions from time to time, banning things for not relating to AMD when they absolutely do.

If that weirdness hadn't occurred quite so frequently I would agree.

There's a reason we got r/realAMD/ too.

Maybe things have changed, if that's the case the moderators should announce it.

That said I agree r/amd is kept reasonably clean, but it was kind of frustrating when Nvidia shills were flooding r/amd while significant amd related content was removed when it criticized the competition.

TheDutchRedGamerAMDRadeon-Ryzen/RX Vega LQ•

Nvidia chills are also on realAMD lol. Thats why i never went back to realAMD.

Buffalox•

I get that it may be hard to keep the shills out, especially if some are professionals, which I absolutely wouldn't put past Nvidia.

We also have to consider that Nvidia users outnumber AMD, what I don't get is why an Nvidia user would do anything to discredit AMD, even for Nvidia users, they would get better products and better prices if Nvidia had to compete more for their market share, and it seems there are a surprising amount of Nvidia users who won't give AMD any credit for anything, even when it's objectively true that for instance 8 GB RAM is better than 6 GB, some feel strange urge to make weird claims that an RX 580 can't actually use that RAM anyway.

Often the way these issues are debated, reeks of being heavily influenced by professional Nvidia shills.

TheDutchRedGamerAMDRadeon-Ryzen/RX Vega LQ•

That's the mind share problem fanboys who just want there fav brand being the best being the only one. I never go over to Nvidia ever i'm just not interested in Nvidia at all so why should i go there discredit Nvidia that would be childish and narrow mined. It's not only Nividia professionals majority are blind fanboys of Nvidia who come here to troll and discredit AMD if possible.

Maybe it has changed?.. but realAMD was no different don't see any reason to go over there?

It's beyond me why they don't understand if good competition is good for all PC users?
