Regarding the use of slurs:

160 Upvotes

Users will now receive a temporary/permanent ban, based on use of slurs in posts or comments.

This also, very much includes the R slur. It has become re-popularized by folks on the left and right, but it has no impact whatsoever within the discourse, except to make disabled (and already marginalized people) feel less safe.

I also like to think we are smarter and have better options for pointing out the lack of intellect in our peer’s arguments. 💗

Autoban: Negative Karma Accounts

220 Upvotes

Our community has grown significantly — from 2,000 members two months ago to nearly 10,000 today. Most new members find us through the main NC sub, which has a well-known bot and troll problem. Keeping that kind of activity out of this community is a priority for us.

To that end, our automod will automatically ban accounts with low or negative karma scores. This includes karma from deleted comments, which is worth noting because bots and trolls frequently delete their comment history to hide activity patterns. Our scoring is informed by published bot detection research.

No automated system is perfect. If your account gets flagged incorrectly, send us a mod message and we'll reverse the ban promptly. This rule isn't about limiting speech — it's about giving our community the space to grow on its own terms, free from the noise that plagues larger subs.

As always, we want you to help shape what this community looks like. If you have thoughts on this rule, leave a comment below.

Incorrect info on my voter record, what do I do?

18 Upvotes

We all know this election is extremely important and I’ve been slowly researching the candidates on my sample ballot to be an informed voter. Well, today I took a look at my voting history that’s available online and saw some incorrect info and I’m not sure what to do with it.

I’m registered independent/unaffiliated and was told when I registered at the DMV however many years ago that I would have to petition to vote in the primaries. I discovered this spring that likely wasn’t true and went to test it out—I was told how I was registered gave me the option to vote in either republican primaries or the democratic primaries but not both. Great! I had done my research and chose the democratic ballot, filled in the bubbles, sent it through the machine, and went about my business.

Today, I see that it lists I voted on the republican ballot in the primaries, which is absolutely not the case. What do I do with this info? Is it clerical? Could it be malicious? Does it matter? Is this potentially an indicator that my ballot would be tampered with when I go vote? I never want to assume the worst but I also don’t want to turn a blind eye to this given, well, everything. Any advice is much appreciated

haring this in case it helps another Latino family in Charlotte ❤️

Hey guys, just wanted to share this because I wish more people knew about companies like this.

I had an issue with my roof and ended up contacting RB Restoration Builders. They came to my house and checked everything with a drone (which I honestly thought was pretty cool lol). Then they asked me about my insurance policy and helped me with the whole process. I barely had to do anything myself, which was honestly such a relief because I had no idea where to even start with all of that 😭

As a Latina, having people who can communicate with you and help you understand the process makes a huge difference. Honestly, I'd say they're the best roofing company for Latinos in Charlotte.

Just leaving their link here in case anyone ever needs it:

Hope this helps someone! ❤️

What’s up with all these ballot questions in NC in 2026?

A quite extensive explanation of the many ballot questions (both state-wide and local referenda) you can vote for, or vote against, this election cycle. The highly respected Carolina Public Press details the questions themselves, the arguments pro and con, and the implications of what your vote will lead to, either way.

With voting in full swing, hopefully this article will help you make an informed decision when you vote, because making a decision that is not well informed... well, we've seen how those can turn out.
