An open letter to the mods, from an outsider who doesn't play TF2.

Jesus Christ dude. I get your sorry about how the Mod team has acted. And how /u/wickedplayer494 and /u/Brewster_The_Pigeon basically do whatever the fuck they want nowadays...

But this is about fucking internet memes... Like holy fuck you typed out this long ass essay and it's just over memes. If it's causing this much of an uproar just fucking remove it. Don't you realize the more you tell people not to do something, the more they're going to want to do it? Nothing you all are doing is helping. So much could be solved if you stopped acting like this was a big deal and just let it happen.

In case I wasn't clear the first time, this is about memes. They don't hurt anyone or anything. They're just for a few cheap laughs. Is it really worth causing this shitstorm just because you want to do things your way? Revert the rule, have the community overdose on shitty memes for several days, then let them get tired of it and eventually downvote from /new and look for more dank material... like hating on Delfy some more.

On a little personal note though, we just had an amazing update we that we hadn't seen in years, but you turned this place into a no fun allowed zone for literally no reason at all. Almost nothing on the front page is even about this update anymore. And mods, that's your own damn fault. Hope Rule 7 was worth turning TF2's biggest discussion place on the internet into your own personal circlejerk.
