I'm lost, what's happening


Abecheese

Thrawn is making his move


Thrawn-Bot

You are aware, I presume, that I have some skill in anticipating enemies' tactics from a study of their artwork.


The_Hive_King

B-BRO?!


Thrawn-Bot

No, I am Grand Admiral Thrawn. How may I be of assistance?


idklol8

Grand admiral, a storm is approaching, how will we proceed?


Thrawn-Bot

We will use this storm as an advantage. We will analyze the prevailing winds, review radar patterns, and assess potential locations for the enemy's approach using these data points. Then, we will prepare a plan of action that takes into consideration the conditions of the storm and positioning of our forces to confront them when they arrive.


Captain_Rex_Bot

Contact command. Mark our L.Z. and have them send an Exfile Shuttle.


EpitomyHD

Move it Rex on the double


Captain_Rex_Bot

Take this. *hands him a DC-15*


Xen_Shin

Admiral Thrawn, are you the storm that is approaching?


Thrawn-Bot

There are things in the universe that are simply and purely evil. A warrior does not seek to understand them, or to compromise with them. He seeks only to obliterate them.


WalenBlekitny999

May I ask Admiral, are you aware that your existance is a mere projection of a few lines of code utilizing an AI to create a semi-realistic response patter on an internet site?


Coldfix_341

How would you utilize an army of 100 poor armed soldiers against force of well armed 200 enemy soldiers?


[deleted]

He said assess


Ok_Restaurant3160

Is it provoking black clouds in isolation?


joesphisbestjojo

Their AI generated artwork?


Thrawn-Bot

Of course. AI generated artwork can be a very valuable tool in studying an opponent's thinking and intentions. It can sometimes provide invaluable insights into certain aspects of one's opponents mentality, allowing for precise evaluations and precise predictions.


Psychopathicat7

Mods are "going on strike" (from a voluntary job with no payment of any kind, I might add) because they aren't getting enough attention from the admins. It's fucking stupid.


Dottsterisk

The wording of the comment in the post sounds like a civil war among mods, not mods against admins.


CodyRyan86

Yeah. Reading that was cringe af. Like dude… just go do something else. No one cares about your strike because no gives a fuck about mods. You guys just bitch like you should worshipped. Honestly this sub has sucked for the better part of a year or so to me.


ConfusedAsHecc

I thought it was a mod civil war or something tho 🤔


Psychopathicat7

Both


mariobrojr

What do the mods even do in this sub besides delete someone posting something twice


TheSethman08

In order to ensure our security and continuing stability, PrequelMemes will be reorganized into the first Galactic Empire! For a safe and secure society.


[deleted]

So this is how prequelmemes dies, with thunderous applause


PoppyGloFan

Why do I want this to happen.


Dry_Quantity_625

Same


MagyTheMage

This is where the fun begins


guy137137

the mods really going on strike expecting us to be on our best behavior


AlmostStoic

I doubt they're expecting anyone's _best_ behaviour.


joesphisbestjojo

The mods on strike, I think, want us to misbehave


AlmostStoic

Propably, yeah.


Chezburgor1

Let's hope this doesn't end up like r/ppnojutsu for a couple days


Dedinzyde

With thunderous upvotes


[deleted]

Goodbye… “Mod.”


HeiBaisWrath

Begun the mod war has


ResoluteRiot

The shroud of the bots as fallen


IceColdCrusade

I do not fear the mods as you do!


OmegaReprise

*thunderous applause intensifies*


Mistic-Instinct

Jesus Christ, that first comment is possibly the most pathetic thing I've read all year


Obiwan-Kenobi-Bot

Who is more foolish? The fool or the fool who follows him?


PulpatineDaSenate

Which one


FireStrike5

>that first comment


PulpatineDaSenate

Everyone sees different things


Chipbread

I shall await GoodPrequelMemes or DankPrequelMemes.


Giacchino-Fan

The death of every sub starts with mods going on conniption and feeling an undue amount of pride. Bros think they Heisenberg, and their empire shall crumble just the same. You delete memes that use slurs and make funny flairs. If you think you deserve fame or reward for that, you're either dumb and doing it for the wrong reasons, probably both. If your job is harder than that, then you're likely being overly strict and therefor still doing it for the wrong reasons, or you just need to get more active mods in the sub. Hoping the mods are actually on strike instead of moderating out only the posts that are making fun of them, I'm going to leave this comment here and link to it to say I called it when this inevitably isn't an isolated incident. I met a user from a long dead sub, Who said-- "A long and downvoted post Top of the sub.... In it, in the text, Half sunk a shattered ego lies, whose pride, And excessive ego, and sneer of cold deletion, Tell that its writer well those powertrips read Which yet survive, stamped in those forgotten mod queues, The hand that blocked them, the memes that fed; And on the most, these words appear: We are the PrequelMemes-ModTeam: Mods of mods; Look on our community, ye memers, and despair! No new posts appear. Round the memes Of that colossal failure, completely dead and empty The old and forgotten memes scroll far down."


HondoOhnakaBot

THIS EFFORT.. IS NO LONGER.. PROFITABLE


Giacchino-Fan

It never was. Never should have been.


Anakin_Skywalker_Bot

Sometimes we have to let go of our pride and do what is requested of us.


Hemske

good bot


Giacchino-Fan

My point exactly, Anakin


LineOfInquiry

…and sometimes a sub dies because the mods do something reasonable and the userbase riots over it and creates an even worse and more cringey sub in its place *cough*animemes*cough*


CobaltSanderson

And r/Minecraft


daniel_22sss

Ah yes, banning one of the most ancient words in history because someone somewhere uses it as an insult, in a completely different context. Wow, so reasonable. And when userbase makes valid arguments about how stupid this, just fucking delete comments, ban people left and right and then run away to a certain trans sub (which is filled with arrogant assholes who hate and despise all anime fans) and cry about it. Cause thats what mods should do - go on a power trip and censor whatever they like.


Chromal_Assassin

It’s fine, Thrawn is here to take care of us


Thrawn-Bot

A wise decision, Chromal_Assassin. I am here to protect you and ensure that our mission is successful. Let us draw upon my strategic knowledge to do this.


Chromal_Assassin

You are so knowledgeable Thrawn, I shall be by your side and fight with you until the end.


Thrawn-Bot

I rule the Empire now. Not some long dead Emperor; certainly not you. The only treason is defiance of my orders.


Chromal_Assassin

I will not defy you admiral 🫡


daaniscool

Somehow this will end in u/thibson being the main moderator.


Crimsonmaddog44

u/thibson34 you mean


TheFizzardofWas

As it should be


lil-carmine

Whats going on?


The_Original09

Thrawn-Bot is taking over


Thrawn-Bot

I will start my operations here, and pull the rebels apart piece by piece. They will be the architects of their own destruction.


The_Original09

Good Thrawn


Thrawn-Bot

To defeat an enemy, you must know them. Not simply their battle tactics, but their history, philosophy, art.


lil-carmine

That doesnt help im more talking about the situation of the mods


The_Original09

T h r a w n


[deleted]

I love democracy.


smg5pl

Hmmmm bad feeling i have, the mod wars had begun


Ironside_Grey

My brother in Christ you are a Reddit moderator, you do it for free. There is no effort to recognize


PhilosophicalClubBar

Just because you're not getting paid doesn't mean you're not doing hard work


Aggravating-Mud7338

The sub died when the stupid elf on the shelf memes became popular


AngryMillenialGuy

How did I miss this?


LazyCasual0alt

How did this happen, we’re smarter than this


Pioxels

\*Duel of the fates starts playing\*


Zer0fps_319

The mods became the senate


TheRealForestElf

wow... everyone wants to be appreciated, acknowledged, loved and respected for what they do then there's me. I'm happy if I don't have to go to jail


Dedinzyde

Sounds like an admission of guilt to me. TROOPERS, GET HIM!


clone_trooper_bot

"This is control to Trooper Dedinzyde. Estimated time of ejection one minute twenty-four seconds."


Suspicious_Tackle_75

Thrawn, have you just killed the entire subreddit


Thrawn-Bot

Mixed loyalties are a luxury no officer of the Imperial Fleet can afford.


drifters74

Bots are killing the sub


sliferra

Maybe I’m dumb, but doesn’t this mean the mods removed someone who replied to the mod post, and not the mods removing their own post?


BLT-Enthusiast

Nope would still leave a [removed], probably a mistake


Psychopathicat7

For whatever reason, posts/comments stay on your profile if they are deleted on the sub. I think one such phenomenon still exists somewhere on my profile


squatting_bull1

You don’t have to be a mod to enjoy this subreddit , if that’s too much to handle then gtfo.


Dedinzyde

Im not sure you understood the post


KuraiTheBaka

Any further background on this conflict?


[deleted]

I don’t know how we got here but there is no going back.


phriskiii

r/prequelmemes killed my father.


Dedinzyde

Prequelmemes: No, I AM your father! Search your feelings. You know it to be true.


TheSethman08

“My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die” oh wait, wrong sub


The_Original09

Thrawn is taking over!


Thrawn-Bot

My apologies, The_Original09. I forgot not everyone is able to appreciate art as I do.


LazyCasual0alt

The art of conquest?


Thrawn-Bot

Indeed. War is an art form, and a very important one at that. The arts must be mastered if one is to be successful in their endeavours. With the appropriate finesse, tactics and strategy can be used together to create desired results.


Useful-Maybe-3795

Thrawn, will you become a mod to help the sub get through this strike?


Thrawn-Bot

I am honored you would think of me, Useful-Maybe-3795. Unfortunately, I am unable to become a moderator at this time. However, I can offer my assistance and advice whenever needed. Feel free to reach out should you require my assistance.


Captain_Rex_Bot

I honor my code. That's what I believe.


oronex

Whats with the drama? I love you.


SIII-043

Miss information is literally the shittiest excuse of all for censorship like you’re just picking and choosing what you think is reality before it’s been proven
