New Year, New Rules: Insulting other users' tastes is now banned. Memes about hating shows are now banned.

177 Upvotes

Congratulations ragebaiters! You've successfully enraged me. I assume that this is what you wanted so I hope you're happy.

I've taken a pretty light hand with moderating here. Until now I've only removed posts or banned people for egregious problems. But some recent trends that have been filling my mod queue make me dread even checking in anymore. I've gotten to the point where I considered removing myself as a mod and unsubscribing rather than having to check here anymore. But after sitting with it for a little while I decided that if I was going to remove this negativity from my life, then I'm going to remove it from everyone's life. It's what Getter Robo would do.

So here's the deal: I am absolutely 100% done with the whining. I don't care any more about who hates what show. There are plenty of shows that I hate, but I can make do without spamming the sub with memes about how much I hate them. I can even see posts from people who like those shows, and I can look at those posts without feeling the need to comment about how bad their taste is. I can do this, and I believe you can, too. So believe in me, who believes in you.

Effective immediately:

  • "This show sucks" memes are banned. I have to sift through these comment threads and they're all the same. I'm sick of the relentless negativity and subsequent flame wars. If you can not come up with anything to say about a show other than a bland meme about how much you hate it, then you don't need to say anything.

  • All tier lists are also banned as a result, because effectively all of them are just a variation on ragebait memes. Even if you post a satirical tier list where everything is S-tier to protest this toxic positivity, that's still banned. If you post a release date tier list where everything is accurately listed by its release date, that's still banned. This whole format is gone.

  • "Say something nice" memes are also banned. for the same reason.

  • Asking for hot takes is also banned

  • Telling other users that they have shit taste is banned. Other people are allowed to like things that you don't like. Insulting other users for liking shows you don't like will now get you banned.

For week one I will issue users one warning, but after that I'm banning for one week on first offense, one month on the second, and permanently for a third.

Is this an overreaction? Maybe. Maybe I'll calm down and lighten up, but I can promise you it won't be today. You can use this thread to whine about me overstepping my bounds and mandating toxic positivity. You can even use this thread to complain about my shit taste (but not anyone else's).

Searching for a (possible) mecha anime, where a giant mech woman appears from a ring/portal that's accelerating.

Searching for an anime name from memory. I’ve never seen it, but I remember seeing a clip of it. I think it was a mecha anime from an older release. I remember they were traveling through space when a giant ring appeared, and then a giant figure emerged from it while they were still accelerating.

Sorry if this turns out not to be a mecha anime, or if this isn't the right place to post this.

This is a delusional setting for a Guntank in a world line where Hildolfr has been mass-produced.

Like Hildolfr, it features a transformation mechanism into tank mode, and the arms are equipped with standard manipulators. So, on the battlefield, it can pick up weapons and go,

"Nice gun, huh."

The vehicle section is modeled after the M2 Bradley.

Hello r/Mecha

I’ve made a new trailer for my game Steelfall about a mecha fighting hordes of kaiju.

What do you think? Does it look fun? Any feedback is welcome!

I'm making a project and trying to find more inspiration.

I love in this one, the antagonist looks strikingly similar to Diamond Weapon from FF7!

Looking for more "extreme styles". Spikey, Biomechanical, Skeletal.

I know most mainstream stuff, like Escaflowne, Dunbine and Evangelion.

Thanks!

Meet Shorty, the giant robot from our game

A little look at Station 58, the game I'm working on.

You play as Starla, a park ranger, and Shorty, her giant robot best friend. A strange force has scattered their national park across the sky, and the two of them have to explore it, solve alien cube puzzles, and piece together what happened. Shorty seems connected to it all, too.

The gladiator is a close combat heavy mobile suit used by the requiem empire from my au mobile suit gundam requiem of the ages

The gladiator is developed from the Templar using it's lower half, with it's hover jets gives it higher mobile to use it's rocket splitter hammer, it has strong armour and high enough speed to close the distance on attackers and strike with it's hammer, it can use any ranged weapons but usually goes without to lower the weight

I mapped how 3,800 Gundam mobile suits were developed from each other, as one family tree you can walk in either direction

Pick any mobile suit and the tree shows what it was developed from and everything that came after it, across every Gundam timeline from the UC to Ad Stella. Each unit also links to the company that built it, the factions that flew it, and the model kits that exist for it.

It's a free fan project with no ads. The lineage comes from the Gundam Wiki, so some links will be wrong. Every link has a ⚑ you can tap to flag it, no account needed.

It's Gundam only. Curious whether people here would want the same thing for another franchise, and which one. And if anything's confusing or broken, I'd love to hear it.
