    It’s better than the The time someone posted OC and then said it was doxing when people talked about who had taken the photo.

    It was her. She was a photographer that has posted it in many places. With her name.

    Well my Google results return only Iain M. Banks, and nothing about this T.S. Eliot guy. (It's possible Banks was better read than I am, and was making the same reference you did.)

    Especially with the whole "what's the sub for this?" two comments after someone posted it

    parent root
    18 points Splendidissimus

    Actually, since the one that is just this sub name is the OP of this post, that means that comment was already there when OP made his comment and then (presumably immediately) took the screenshot. Since their time stamps are within the same minute, I'll assume that neither comment was there when the other was typing, but technically that guy's comment was up first.

    But the second comment is a response on the first one, so they couldn’t have been posted simultaneously right?

    parent root
    3 points Splendidissimus

    The second comment is a reply on "Well that was resolved quickly", which is a comment at the same level as the OP's comment. When you make a comment it initially shows at the top of all of that level's comments.

    They absolutely couldn't have been. They posted that slop purely for attention and shouldn't have been given any.

    There are two threads; the first goes “OP doesn’t know what OC means” “it’s my photograph” “well that was resolved quickly” and then “what’s the sub for this sort of thing”. The second goes “OP doesn’t know what OC means” “it’s my photograph” and then the comment linking just the subreddit. That comment was made by the OP of this post, meaning that on their screen, it populates first, regardless of when it was posted. It’s most likely that both were posted within moments of each other, but if you HAVE to order them, the odds are WAY more in favor of OP coming in second

    Edit: something else I just saw; there’s what looks like a clock next to a 15 in the screenshot under OP’s comment. I use the official app bc I’m lazy, so I might be wrong, but I would assume that’s a client side timer for just your own posts/comments? In which case OP posted their comment 15 seconds before the screenshot, and the other comment was 100% already there

    parent root

    I'm really not sure where this timing thing is coming from. All of those comments are single childs of their parent comment. I can't be born before my parents and neither can a comment.

    u/wine_n_mrbean is correct - it means Original Content.

    I.e. something you actually made yourself, whether that be a photo, a drawing, a poem, a story....
