y'all were okay with the steady creep of antisemitic conspiracy theories to the point of exonerating dickless nazi tucker, and now you're upset because there's gore. imgur is just an edgelord amplification mechanism at this point, and the sooner it's dead the better.
They're not confusing them. The entire point of these arguments is to try to muddle the two together. But as much as they claim to hate pedos, then statistics show most pedos come from their own camp. As much as they claim to hate antisemitism, most antisemitism comes from their own camp. Mass murders, political violence, child grooming, voter fraud, and everything else they claim to be fighting against...in their case, every accusation is a confession.
As soon as Imgur is no longer useful to the corporate overlords, it’ll go the way of Amino. And all over the internet, and especially on Reddit, images that have been dutifully hosted for over a decade will break forever.
Are we talking about the dude getting his head chainsawed off and the other guy getting his head cut off with a knife? Because I saw that shit and that's fucked.
The only thing I can think of to do at this point is for tons of users to start reporting the site to various search engines as not doing enough to prevent users from posting gore videos on the site. If the actions of this troll start hurting their wallet then they'll probably finally do something about him.
Otherwise they probably don't give a shit what he does.
Our dear leader had made it clear last summer that this site is only still operating due to his graceful bidding, because it already operates at a loss.
And since his words of wisdom just could not win the hearts of the community, he went silent again. So you can expect he will most likely just turn off the lights instead of bothering too much with problems
Our dear leader is involved in ai companies himself (forgot if he owns them and how many there are). I am convinced his primary motivation is to use that data for his own companies either way.
Some dbag has been posting extremely racist shit in comments, and when that doesn't get the reaction he wants he switches to gore. Has made a few dozen accounts now.
Yeah those gore videos are so fucked up beyond belief. Didn't know what it was at first when I clicked on it thinking it might be some mannequin but then it turned out to be somebody getting their fucking heart cut out of their chest amd then the person eating eat. Fucking christ what is happening in this world where somebody actually posted this shit on this site.
Yeah, I used to take mice apart for a living (cancer research) so I've seen some nasty shit. I'm not phased by most things, so I've been working to report what I can to keep it out of other people's minds.
Apparently the resident troll who keeps making new accounts to get around bans was spamming gore and other really nasty shit the other day. And because the site owners replaced all their mods with buggy AI it took a ridiculous amount of time for anything to be done about it.
For real. I'm disgusted by the shit that PoS is posting. And, of course, because imgur's ai moderation is dogshit, it's been up for well over a half hour now.
Must be some kind of way it is being filtered, maybe cuz I use adblocking or something, but I have no idea what u all talking about, don't see ANY gore at all. Maybe it is region specific (I remember a time before when some posts were simply vanished for anyone in cali area, everyone else saw them fine but they were just missing for anyone inside cali, maybe a similar situation here)
That is good, I still remember, and was a (mostly) mature adult at the time, seeing them way back when it was a fresh new bullshit and to this day I am still somewhat traumatized by it(I cannot close my eyes and NOT have the full color videos playing in my head if I even for a second think back to it...) so ya.. glad I wasn't shown this shit/did not see it, and glad it gone, but feel bad for anyone who had to see.
Yeah. I mean, my soul is already dead, but that guy was uploading what I consider to be the worst shit on the surface web. It can be legitimately traumatizing and imgur just can't be bothered.
I think it cuts you off if you report the user vs individual comments. I was able to report multiple posts last time, but as soon as I reported the user it said I had already reported them on their comments.

We'll see if it does anything.
Californiajackson
I did as well, yesterday.
Antininny
It does nothing. OP is correct.
flamingflamingo
Gore and torture gifs? Omg we've circled back to 2003 where image sites full of unmoderated miscellany ran rampant.
etherbunny41
People, learning, history, repeating, etc.
Subsound
To be fair, AI doesnt need therapy for PTSD paid for by the business. Since they dont moderate content till someone complains.

To the front page.

That's going to happen soon anyway, just as soon as it stops giving them new images to sell to AI training groups.

GasolineRain
This was happening yesterday - is it back again now? I kinda gotta stay away when it's active gore
CrisprCAS
Yup. Got a reply with Obama and a noose, went to their profile to report it and it was a big block of people getting body parts cut off.
GasolineRain
Thanks for the reply - I'm gonna dip out for a bit then, as I don't handle that super well and get depressed. Appreciate the confirmation.

Usersub has been flooded with gore for days.
MrFancyPanzer
I haven't seen any
lightfoot2
Odd, I have not either.
SandyTentaclez
Yea be happy honestly. Its very vile stuff. Their favorite is a video of a living man being cut open...
akafluffy
It's a guy that a lot of sane people have blocked so a lot of folks, myself included have never seen it.
lightfoot2
oh ok. My life is a lot better due to the block lists. We should share them somewhere.
OmenJones
Lucky. The guy was posting Funkytown (don't look it up, but IYKYK), vids of a guy getting his heart cut out, and chainsaw executions.
PrincessWasabi
We know he is unwell, but I fear he could be violent irl to some unknown victims
MrFancyPanzer
Jesus.

Yeah.

Geez, I wish that was something that could be reported to the police.

For real. I'm disgusted by the shit that PoS is posting. And, of course, because imgur's ai moderation is dogshit, it's been up for well over a half hour now.
PolarHailStorm
Oh, this explains the nude Sylveon and Judy Hopps I just scrolled past.
CurbYourClassWar
Half hour? I was reporting that shit like a day and a half ago
Badgerbadgerson3
There were posts that were up for over an hour before. I made a post callingbthem out. My post got deleted before they did
JohnnySilverballs
That's fucking infuriating. The ai moderation of imgur is yet another example of ai being absolute shit.

It was all in comments. The comments are, thankfully, gone now because the shit-ass moderation finally took care of it. Be glad you missed it.
AtmaDarkwolf
That is good, I still remember, and was a (mostly) mature adult at the time, seeing them way back when it was a fresh new bullshit and to this day I am still somewhat traumatized by it(I cannot close my eyes and NOT have the full color videos playing in my head if I even for a second think back to it...) so ya.. glad I wasn't shown this shit/did not see it, and glad it gone, but feel bad for anyone who had to see.
Edgarflaps
In the past I was warned for saying poo poo.
Now I'm seeing people being gutted.
RyvaTheRenamon
I get yelled at for mildly suggestive artwork of drawn characters but a guy can post videos of dudes being beheaded and it's fine apparently.
OmenJones
Yeah. I mean, my soul is already dead, but that guy was uploading what I consider to be the worst shit on the surface web. It can be legitimately traumatizing and imgur just can't be bothered.

I saw it just scrolling on the app and I’ve been struggling with processing it for two days now
ATLandNerdy
I'm gonna log out for a bit, I think this is enough Internet
Khanamana324
Thank fuck I missed that.
PoorBoyChevelle
As someone who has been trying to process it for years, Im sorry. Its horrifying what people are capable of, and heartbreaking in its senselessness
Larktonguesinadicecup
What was it?
OmenJones
Cartel torture and executions.
Larktonguesinadicecup
Oh. Like "funkytown" etc. I don't want to see that yeah
LifeIsADanceOfMinds
If we report every time we see it, the Virtual Mods might/should take action.
trippingthelightfantastic
I was told I'd already reported that user so one report and they're still up. Totally useless
LifeIsADanceOfMinds
I have been reporting every comment.
yougotredonyu
How do you report the comments? I tried but couldn’t figure it out.
PrincessBatCat
If you're on the app, tap the three dots next to a comment and it's one of the options.
rabbihimself
Same here.
trippingthelightfantastic
That worked last time, I reported every comment. This time they only allowed just one report
rdmage11
I think it cuts you off if you report the user vs individual comments. I was able to report multiple posts last time, but as soon as I reported the user it said I had already reported them on their comments.
ThePostPenultStraw
Something I noticed, is they are usually commenting on left leaning posts or any post against Trump or Maga, so this behavior was targeted.
Clockworkdancerobot
That and one of the furry cosplayers. Sounds like the usual right wing anti-politics trolls.
ThingsThatDontJustifyGenocide
Mars marsing about, huh
PresldentClef
I think its Akistos, personally. Not usually Mars' MO, but Akistos makes a ton of alt harassment accounts and is MAGA.
ThingsThatDontJustifyGenocide
They're both child-rapists and nazis, yeah. Akistos has muted me, which is nice.
I still think everyone that sees him should treat him the same way as I say folks should treat mars.
PresldentClef
I am not surprised to find them down in bad comments even here.
