we may be next (self.zoophilia)

sorry for being slightly off topic, but when this sub gets banned and we move to voat, can we please NOT do what the people from /r/fatpeoplehate are doing and nuke the servers?
thank you.
and trust me, judging by the way things are going now, i would be surprised if we DIDNT get banned sooner or later.
Maybe someday, but not for harassment. We don't organize raids or encourage hate. The most we've done (from what I've seen here) is browbeat people who annoy us in this subreddit to the point where they can't post here. And it's usually a justified reaction to ignorant posts.
Has it really gotten that serious?
its getting there. and pretty quickly too
It's not gonna happen, this sub is too much under the radar. I never even see it referenced. If anything, it's going to be SWD, because that gets brought up in the subs all the time for shock value, but I don't expect that will be banned either.
Can someone fill me in on what exactly is happening? Why the sudden fear of being banned? I guess I'm out of the loop.
there is no loop. just a gut feeling i have that this ship is just gonna sink lower and lower
/r/outoftheloop does a great job at filling you in with all reddits continually evolving nuances.
Harassing and inflammatory subs got banned, people who forget reddit is a commercial/private entity are all up in arms about censorship or free speech. Zoo subs are probably safe, they're not doing anything illegal for the most part and nobody is harassing anyone.
Don't be silly this isn't a toxic subreddit,
They have no reason to ban us.
pretty sure theyll find a reason
yeah I agree. As I saw someone mention in a comment, we're more like r/relationships but with animals. I quite liked that analogy.
The problem is that even though fatpeoplehate garned alot of hate, a lot of people were sad to see it go. If this subreddit were nuked most likely the only people who would care would be us. Which probably makes it easier to get rid of since there would be much less of a backlash towards reddit for doing so.
thats one reason why im so worried. who would notice? whos gonna stop them?
In general there is a lot more tolerance for a group like this than SWD or something similar. Even Yahoo! has avoided deleting blogs on Tumblr that don't post pictures. Considering Yahoo!s track record on being the arbiter of what is moral... I'm not terribly worried about reddit.
The only problem I have is the star chamber like banning of things. Will we know and be able to make a case before hand or just one complaint and we're gone.
Mostly I think this is a non-issue at this time for this sub
might be for now...
i know where this is going. first they'll ban the "offensive" subs. then, they'll move on to the next thing. which i think is the sexual subs. such as /r/sex /r/porn and us, /r/zoophila
thats what i mean by "we might be next". i seriously doubt its just gonna stop at /r/fatpeoplehate and similar stuff.
I doubt it since sexual subreddits are allowed as long as they don't involve minors.
not for long
Says what reddit admin?
none
as if they'd tell us
Chill out, there's no reason to believe this is turning into a massive witch hunt, they just got rid of subs that were harassing people and giving reddit the image of a site that allows or promotes bullying. A few others were banned for similar reasons, but they all shared the common thread of stirring up trouble. Don't be a fear monger or you may set in motion exactly what you're afraid of if people begin to panic.
The only way zoo related subs would get banned is if people here were harassing others or the mods were allowing posts that promote abuse and anti-social/sadistic behavior. I don't see either happening, and /r/zoophilia is a discussion group about a very real sexuality. Whether people love it or hate it, they would have to get rid of a lot of others that deal with unpopular fantasies and discussions about unusual sexuality, probably all of /r/sex by those criteria.
People would leave reddit long before it got that far. This is a privately owned website by a commercial entity that can do what they want, but they also know they will sink and die if they drive off too many people.
its already dying. the first mass migration out of this place already happened
Switch to decaf.

It would not be the first mass migration of zoos.... and from my understanding it would be the third from reddit.
third?
I hope this subreddit does not get banned as it is the only good place to talk to zoophiles I know of, the rest just were either not as good a communities are were bit to obssesd with the sex part for me, at least that I have found. I am sure there are other good communities but I would not know where to find them if this was gone.
voat
you know what? Even if, they can't ban my thoughts and feelings.
yes they can
:)
And how?
by making it illegal
yeah but... it's still inside my head. How are you planning to get into my head?
with a bone saw
I am sorry to say that I need to downvote your thread now.
why? 2 punny 4 u?
As long as /r/zoophilia or any other bestiality related subreddit never makes it to the front page of /r/all, we're totally 100% safe.
Also, Voat's servers are hosted in Switzerland, and therefore, they remove bestiality content (discussion is fine, but video/pictures are not). The Bestiality subvoat has a pathetic 1 post in total so far.
they dont remove bestiality content.
