Star Wars Memes

Hello there. Somehow, Star Wars memes have returned. It's not a trap, this is where the fun begins.

Oh hey some real SW content for a change (perhaps):

IMPORTANT

Please do not post the "good friend" or similar copypasta

Our galactic citizens have requested more specific rules, so here are a few.

The general idea is, if you're looking here for rules, you're probably someone who doesn't need to have them spelled out. You're fine. But anyway:

  1. This is a community for Star Wars memes. This means typically screenshots of Star Wars media with some text or context that's meant to be funny and/or thoughtful. All SW media is welcome: movies, games, comic books, fanart... Other kinds of content, like video links or meta memes (about this community, or Lemmy), are fine as well, just keep it on topic.

  2. We are all friends here, and love (sometimes love to hate) Star Wars. Be nice to each other.

  3. As fans of fictional media, we can be passionate. If you very strongly disagree with something or someone, take a deep breath before reacting. Anger leads to the dark side!

  4. Everything in Star Wars has happened a long time ago, in a galaxy far away, and it's a rich universe of millions of words and millions of years of history. So current Earthly matters really shouldn't concern us here. In other words, leave politics, philosophies and convictions behind the door. This applies even if it's about something related to Star Wars.

  5. Original content is preferred. Reposts are fine, just please limit to a maximum of 3 per day, per citizen. It is recommended, but not required, to mark original memes as (OC) and reposts as (repost).

  6. Local mods are the Jedi council. They may take actions that are necessary to maintain peace and stability of the Republic, even beyond the rules outlined here. Follow their guidance.

  7. Regular rules of the Lemmy.world instance apply.

I had over 10k karma on my old account, it is a meaningless feature and a sign that you need to touch grass.

[–] NickKnight 1 points 1 year ago

This and the waves of thirst bots "following" you every day pretty much makes this a non issue.

[–] kratoz29 8 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Is my karma of 10k?

What does this supposed to mean? I honestly don't see any utility on this lol.

I want my money back, it did not work.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Yes, it's mostly the sum of your upvotes. Anything over a few hundred is useless, it helps see if you're a bot to prevent you from posting to big subs

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I have 45,581 karma. It’s just internet points. Doesn’t really mean anything.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

It would only mean something if you could cash out in real money lol

Dwellers of the Fediverse: "Goooooood! Goooooooood!"

Thanks! I hate sand. It's coarse, rough, irritating. And it gets everywhere.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

The only point of karma and account age is to be able to post in subreddits that have minimum karma requirements and so people don't think you're a shill. But if you don't plan to post anymore, there's not anything to regret.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Might want to keep accounts for a bit to vote in community polls for what communities should do

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

I'm waiting until the API changes actually take place to delete my account. I want it to be clear they are still bleeding users weeks from now.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I've lost multiple accounts with karma in the six figures to bullshit bans. I don't care. If Reddit cares so little about it's users, then why should I care about my karma & long standing accounts?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Yep that is one reason to leave Reddit account as just build up bullshit bans usually in a thread asking why don't you like xxxxx

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

I dumped four of my accounts ... one had 200,000 karma ... two had 50,000 karma and one had a few thousand

I felt like Darth Plaguis The Wise

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Honestly it's for the best. Don't dwell on the past, these are different times so look forward

I didn’t delete mine yet, but I know that I have 5.4K karma. No idea if it’s a lot, what to do with it or what it does.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

I have roughly 26,000, which is honestly pretty sad. At the very most, all it does is allow you to post on certain subs. It can act sort of like captcha. Otherwise, it does absolutely nothing but encourage addiction.

I just shreddited everything

The look of a man who could have sold his account to a spammer.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Liberation Anakin, it's going according to the planakin.

[–] master_tallness 3 points 1 year ago

Lmao, almost certainly going to be me on July 1st when the 3rd party apps die. 120k+ comment karma down the proverbial drain; though I'm liking Lemmy, so don't think I'll be that upset if I do it.

[–] WereCat 2 points 1 year ago

Well, I'm about to do that in a day or two after I sort some things out. This will definitely affect me as 90% of my karma is from Prequel Memes.

[–] Bard195 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Does deleting a reddit account also means deletion of post and comments tied to that account?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I'm pretty you can still see them, but your username won't be shown. It'll display as "[deleted]"

[–] house_of_questions 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Not as far as I know. But you could use something like PowerDeleteSuite to delete/edit all your comments before deleting your account. That's what I plan on doing. Just turn all my posts into Lemmy advertising, or just to tell Spez to go fuck himself. ;)

Edit, whoops, didn't see how old your post was. But hopefully it still helps!

@brihuang95 all i'm reading is a bunch of children continuing their pathetic little childish tantrum.
