It'd be fun for about a year, then I'd get bored of being in charge of people and try to ghost everyone

The second team you're talking about isn't Kansas, it's Missouri

Their other posts are decent to good

Who cares? I don't understand the hostility to making a separate comm, comms are free. Beanis has been around for months, if not longer, and if another meme gets this stale and played out to the point where there have been multiple struggle sessions about containing it, there's literally no reason not to make a containment comm.

No, because the beanis spam drives people to block the comm when they'd otherwise enjoy badposting. Just look at the number of people in this thread who've said they've done so

Beanis has been going on forever

Make c/annoyingposting for that then, there's a difference between bad and annoying

Sure, why not? Comms are free

Check the mod log

Less funny after someone unironically said that asking beanis to get posted in a dedicated comm is just as bad as queer erasure today

Bad things happening to the dumbest rich assholes alive, love to see it

Didn't expect it to turn into a full blown struggle session tbh and I think I missed the others, but if it's come up more than once that's a great sign it should have a separate comm

It sucks that a few petulant posters are determined to make it so other people can't shit in it

Again, it's not about the posts themselves, it's the volume of them, and the fact that the spam increases when people ask the posters to slow down

Kinda sucks that a couple users can decide it's their own personal trash can and make it unusable for others though. I've said elsewhere I like that there's a place to try out low-effort bits that may or may not land.

Making badposting unusable for anything other than beanisposting is just going to move those low-effort bits back to other comms, undoing the idea of the containment comm.

I don't mind one or two posts here and there, but it's just outright spam at this point

Worse, whenever anyone points out that the amount of spam is annoying, the spam doubles

The joke itself isn't the problem, it's the volume of the posts

The first four or five pages of the feed have been majority beanis spam all day

The whole thing was in response to a request that beanis posting gets its own comm, so the beanis people can keep posting as much as they like. Not even asking to ban it or limit it.

I'm getting to that point but I honestly like 80% of the non-bean-spam bad posts, and it's nice to have a low-effort comm to post stupid bits in when I'm not sure if they're going to land

The culture of posting even more bean spam in response to people asking for bean containment really sucks though

The irony of this getting buried under petulant bean spam for asking that the bean spam get its own comm so the bean people can keep enjoying it
