AngrilyEatingMuffins, in [Lolita Fashion] How to mistake a $1500 dress for a $150 dress and lose all credibility in the process

Seems pretty reasonable to trust your translator and then want a refund when you haven’t worn the outfit yet. Not sure how this is as bad as everyone is making out. Is it because she got a refund in spite of them not wanting to give it? Why should she give a fuck about their policies if it’s going to cost her a grand and a half? None of this seems unreasonable and the one valid piece of criticism (being able to resell it) is judging someone for what they didn’t do which is usually a bad idea.

WookieMunster,

It wasn’t her translator, it was her traveling friend, the store has a strict no refund policy, which is why the manager had to make calls to have it approved. She made up lies about how the store was failing and was going to lose their spot in the shopping center. She has also tweeted antisemitism things, made jokes at an abandoned nazi camp, stole her dads ashes to mix with paint, stole 10k from a family member’s funeral who committed suicide…

AngrilyEatingMuffins,

Yeah she sounds like she sucks but holy fuck hate her for that shit, not getting a dress she didn’t even wear returned.

Stolen from a comment on Reddit

She (Kelly) got exposed for tweeting antisemitic memes and even touring an abandoned nazi camp while cracking nazi jokes & wearing a red arm band... stole her dad ashes to mix into paint. scammed $10K from a go fund me that was meant to fund her family member who died cuz suicide funeral, instead spent the money on herself.. ( plastic surgery i think) ... supported known rapist & pedo David vanity .. theres a lot more, like a lot more.. but she isn't mainstream enough to make the drama channels

This batman seems to be an edgy psychopath with George colony levels of cringey batman mixed in

There's a tv presenter on NHK Japan wearing these dresses. She does the Japan railway journal show with a university professor. Gorgeous dresses imo. Too bad they went out of fashion.

I would never stumble on something like this on Reddit. An overall mundane story, but I still enjoyed reading it. Crazy such a culture exists and is widespread!

Just my opinion, but I’m ok with reposts, at least until the original content here picks up.

And a waiting period seems like a good idea. Maybe 7 days is enough? 14 days works too.

Emotional_Series7814,

I do appreciate the reposter’s intentions, but if I was a newcomer and not someone who understands they’re doing it because there’s no content here, just one person posting all the time would turn me off immediately.

Fair opinions!

Since no one seems to have an issue with 14 days I’m thinking we might as well just stick with that. If it really chafes the community we can always change it later too. Thanks for the input!

Automatic reposts are terrible for everybody browsing New, I’d suggest not adding such a bot.

But for my communities, I do allow manual Reddit reposts and ask users to add [Reddit] in the title. The idea being that in the future, when third party apps allow filtering by keywords, people who do not want to see them can just add [Reddit] to the blocked words list.

Corkyskog,

What if the bot was programmed with conditions. Like it has to hit some sort of upvote criteria? (Not even sure that’s possible without API, but just a thought)

PassingDuchy,
@PassingDuchy@lemmy.world avatar

That’s a good point about the filtering and I think I’ll see about implementing that. I don’t expect people to totally abandon the subreddit for this community so it’ll be nice for people who use both to filter out reposts when filtering presumably eventually becomes available. Thanks for the suggestion!

Far as the bot goes I’m not interested in one personally, but I did see a post asking for it when I joined the community here. But I agree I don’t think it would help the community grow, but just make us a mirror for the subreddit.

Susaga, in [Mod Post] Hobby Drama Rules Discussion

I would absolutely recommend keeping the waiting period, and not just because of biased hot takes. We’ve all seen drama stories where the context changes radically in a very short time, and even the basic premise of the drama might change. If we keep the waiting period, we have a better chance of having the FULL story in a single post without needing update posts every week as the story unfolds.

PassingDuchy,
@PassingDuchy@lemmy.world avatar

That’s true. I totally forgot HD used to have a bunch of mini update posts before the rule was instituted. Since no one seems to mind 14 days we’ll probably just keep it at that then. I’ve seen people complain about it on the HD subreddit, but if no one over here minds it then no reason to change it I think.

Corkyskog, (edited ) in [Mod Post] Hobby Drama Rules Discussion

Regarding reposts, in my opinion if your going copy an entire post and link back to the reddit post and user, no permission should be required. It’s really not much different than Google or any other website that might aggregate their content. If your going to summarize or change their post in anyway, then permission should definitely be required.

Waiting period definitely needs to remain, 14 days is a blink of an eye and the entire story could be reframed in that time.

Edit: I also would like to see any repost be forced to be submitted with something like Repost or [RP] in the title. I think it’s important before anyone gets to far that they are aware of that. Will also make it a better experience for anyone who still browses r/Hobbydrama.

@PassingDuchy@lemmy.world avatar

Both fair takes and I like the idea of having reposts marked. Like Kadu said in another comment, when filtering becomes available assumably this will be a good way for people who use both communities to filter out what they’ve already seen. Thank you for the input!

one has to admire his commitment. i haven’t created 80000 anything in my life!

platysalty,

I know right? I wrote trash seo articles for a living and I don't think I've even broken the 1000 article mark.

I actually enjoyed reading this. Very interesting.

ramblechat, in [Wristwatches] How a $260 plastic watch pissed off the entire watch community

I’m in the anti-Moonswatch camp. I’ve thought about getting an Omega Moonwatch for a while, the Grey Side of the Moon in particular (www.omegawatches.com/en-au/watches/…/product). It’s around $13000. Yes, a lot of money for a watch, but it’s more than a watch - it’s a sign to myself that I’ve worked hard and it’s a reward. Most people won’t be able to afford one, and will have different priorities and would think it a terrible waste of money. It’s not to show off (like a Porsche or Ferrari), it’s discreet and most people wouldn’t know what it cost if they saw it. It’s for me. It’s also an investment; my brother has a Rolex that he paid around $1000 for in the late 80’s, it’s now worth around $30000. The Moonswatch diminishes the brand in my opinion.

NotAPenguin,

It’s around $13000. Yes, a lot of money for a watch, but it’s more than a watch - it’s a sign to myself that I’ve worked hard and it’s a reward.

No it really just is a watch, they've just got you brainwashed into thinking giving them all your money will make you happy.

Repost and reddit aside, this is such an interesting and obscure subject. It was fun to read

InFerNo, in [Wikipedia] The Admin Who Created 80,000 Pages About Titties

That's a very misleading title
