Hey all. Only a few minutes ago, our good friend PewDiePie from YouTube made a video about this subreddit. I'm not going to link it because it doesn't really matter either way, but the point is he made it, and, as you might expect, this will cause a considerable influx of users to stream into here. The vast majority of these potential users will likely not have a great idea of what this subreddit is about from only watching a 10 minute video on it, meaning they will likely make low quality/unfitting posts. Hopefully you can see where I am going with this. We are going to lock submissions for a bit. A few days at least, maybe a week, maybe more. We have been preparing for this for quite some time, and in all honesty, it's pretty fortunate that this happened after we have already more or less reached the "meme mainstream." Had this happened when we were still a fledgling sub, the effects would have likely been much worse.

I would also like to add that this subreddit does not have any posts show up on /r/all, and that is my and the modteam's personal choice. We are aware that Reddit at large will not get or appreciate the content here, so we opt to remain out of their way and let users who want to be here find us. I do not appreciate PewDiePie flashing this proverbial light on us, and I very sincerely hope no other large YouTubers do something like this again. I repeat, we do not want more attention than we have. Our natural growth is just about perfect the way it is. It is also worth noting that PewDiePie labeling us as an "offensive subreddit" is a gross misrepresentation of what this place is. Our goal has never been to cause offense to anyone, and we do not condone that in any form. We try our hardest to remove any excessively upsetting material posted here. Everything here is in good fun. If anyone has legitimate concerns about this, we would be happy to discuss them in the modmail. That's the deal. I sincerely apologise to all of our regular users for this inconvenience, and I hope for my sake and yours that we can reopen in a timely and orderly fashion. Please feel free to discuss this or anything else in the comments of this post - treat this as a megathread for the closed sub, for the time being. Thanks.
