I am currently sick and have a number of things going on. As soon as I've recovered from round 2 of being sick 2 months after previously being sick, we'll get to work on resolving the issues with this subreddit.
No more funnies, slow moderation, etc. Speaking of which.... MOD APPLICATIONS ARE OPEN! By the time I start looking at them I should be better and we will begin a reforming process and start tossing ideas to revitalize this community. I'm thinking a lot of things but the ones that probably most interest you would be community events, days of the week for specific things, etc. If that's a terrible idea, by all means say so! Your opinion matters.
If anyone has any ideas, please share them below!
Mod Applications: https://www.reddit.com/r/ComedyCemetery/comments/z22etg/mod_applications_are_open_for_rcomedycemetery/?sort=new
UPDATE: I had covid, it's 95% over. I'm ready to start checking mod applications and begin a reform. I'll be checking mod applications and adding new mods over the next 1-3 days as I want to give those of you coming from the automod comment a chance to apply.
UPDATE: Applications are closed. New mods have been picked and are actively being added as they respond. A few are already here and moderating content. You should see a noticable uptick in quality and your reports should be resolved within a reasonable time frame now.
Discussing things such as community events and other changes now. Two rules have been added to account for things that don't typically fall under existing rules, such as content policy violatons.

I think the point of those comments is that the post is funny. I’ve used those a lot as well as other comments to gauge how the community sees a post. When 100+ people upvote the comment and others are saying the post is funny too, considering the majority of people don’t comment or bother upvoting comments, I consider that good odds that the general opinion is it doesn’t fit the subreddit.
I figure they will be less common once we fix the sub issues and funny posts stop slipping through
Why don’t they raise money for autism prevention? Because there’s no cure for poor parenting.
I believe you can add u/repostsleuthbot as a mod and set him with certain parameters to automatically delete/remove reposts. Not sure though, but I feel like that will at least get rid of most of the reposts.
Sorry, I don't support this post type (text) right now. Feel free to check back in the future!
I didn't mean to put you to work bbg dw
It's on the case!
It's okay buddy, you tried your best
We already have a bot that works better IMO. We had sleuth originally and switched for the current one. Reposts aren’t too concerning unless they were recent. I have the current bot set to only remove ones from the last 3 months
Oh shit I thought this was r/4panelcringe lmao, no I don't think I've seen many reposts on this sub at all; great job on that!
I would recommend implementing something about cross posting with actual normal meme subs. I see a good number of people who will post something here but also to 15 other subs that are for normal memes, and it's hard to believe they genuinely think it fits this sub if they're posting it in all of those.
Might be hard to seriously implement and enforce tho
Agreed. Thanks for the mention I’ll bring it up and add it to the #to-do list!
I'm never really sure if my stuff's funny to others or not. So there.
Ive been seeing a recent surge in content that is offensive/uses slurs, which seems fair to post as its not funny. However the comments are often full of people who think it is and may repost it, and also the post itself serves to spread around hateful content. I would like to suggest that we put a ban on things that are just offensive so as not to pay any more attention to them
What does “no more funnies” mean? Does that refer to newspaper comic strips?
this is a subreddit for un-funny content. thus we are trying to cut down on the funny content because it doesnt belong. therefor, no more funnies.
Gotcha. Thanks
Happy cake day!
well this aged like shit
don't bother anymore, your bots are dumb as a stone
bye CC
