I recently had to ban someone for multiple violations of Rule #3. I don't intend for it to be a permanent ban, and will review it in a week or two (assuming I remember; if I forget, the individual in question is more than welcome to reach out to me).
Banning isn't something I particularly enjoy doing. Not counting obvious link-spammers, I've only ever banned one other person in my year-long history of being a mod on Voat. That being said, I don't and won't lose sleep over it.
I understand that people have different standards for fitness and attractiveness, and that's cool. But posts in the vein of "fatty that" and "nigger this" should be kept to /v/fatpeoplehate, /v/niggers or /v/coontown respectively. They love that kind of shit over there, and you won't even get banned for it. Feel free to even x-post content to those subverses if you feel the need.
Now, that being said, understand that when I delete one of your comments, it's not a punishment. It doesn't mean I hate you. It doesn't mean I think your political opinion is wrong (chances are I could care less). It means I think the comment detracts from the conversation rather than adding to it. That's all. You don't need to step on eggshells when commenting or anything-- just try to be relatively respectful, and try not to be too much of a cunt. That's the golden rule, really.
I now return you to your regularly scheduled masturbation cosplay appreciation material.
EDIT: Ban was lifted.

How dare you. Sir Madam, I understand that you have your opinions, but you don't need to sling about insults. Calling this place a 'subreddit'. Well I never!
In all seriousness, downvoats are fine. Comments that only detract from constructive conversation are not. I get enough bitching away from the keyboard. Personally, I draw the line at chicks who look like they're going to drop dead from diabetes or a heart attack. Unfortunately, I lack the salary and autism that would motivate me into performing the kind of detailed inspection it would take to figure out whether or not a cosplayer in any of the pics is wearing a corset.
If you or anyone else wants to see pictures of big-titted cosplayers whose other factors don't offend your senses, then by all means please post some pics. It's better than relying on me to happen across and post a picture of a cosplayer whose image meets your tastes. 'Cause to be honest, finding pics of big-titted cosplayers that aren't fat, Jessica Nigri, or the same handful of characters is pretty hard.
Lastly, thanks you for the feedback. But also for reminding me I need to unban that one guy.

Haha, sorry. I'm still pretty active on both sites.
