The problem? Since 2009, rage comics have had their very own home ( r/fffffffuuuuuuuuuuuu) on Reddit, a site with the most ravenous hunger for new content on the planet. In fact, there’s something undeniably appealing about the creative democratization that rage comics represent, and there were some pretty funny examples of the form in its heyday. That’s not necessarily a recipe for intractable cultural sludge.

R RAGE COMICS FREE
The comics are essentially emoticons-a set of faces that represent common emotions and reactions-that users cobble together into stories using free “rage making” tools available online. You could even insert the images in Facebook chat. Teachers use them as instructional tools. If you ever heard some use “le” or “derp” or “herp” or ( shudder) “sexytime” in daily life, you can thank rage comics. The cartoons bubbled up out of imageboard 4chan in 2008 before spreading like a crudely drawn cancer to Reddit and humor sites 9GAG and FunnyJunk, then popular culture at large. If you’ve never heard of rage comics, be thankful. We now have hard data that proves rage comics are plummeting in popularity. When we feel we need more moderators, we recruit from a list of people we have identified as being helpful and positive role models for the community.The Internet’s long communal nightmare may finally be ending. Therefore, requesting to be a moderator will actually result in you getting banned instead. If it still doesn't work, it was probably removed for breaking a rule (read them!).Īs much as we love when community members want to help out, we can't accept requests for becoming moderators, or we'd be overwhelmed with nothing but such requests. It was probably caught by the evil robotic spam filter, but we've created an even more powerful robot to save everything from the filter it just can take a couple of minutes. If a comic is removed by a moderator, even if it doesn't seem to violate any of the other rules, it remains removed Also, please link directly to the imageĪvoid tropes of rage comics, including, but not limited to, Extra Panel, and Made for Reddit If your comic is from some site other than imgur or Reddit, then it is not permitted, and will be removed as spam. Your post must be relatable, not a personal anecdoteĭo not mention cakedays, karma, upvotes, or anything similar These often take the form of a full-panel stare face lecturing someone, posts about how your dog/cat/grandpa died, and similar. Please use NSFW tags for anything that might have the remote possibility of getting someone fired or in troubleīlogposts are preachy, self-serving, boring comics. Additionally, don't make comics to “introduce” a new rageface This subreddit is for quality content only, meaning comics that are funny or at least will make the reader smile on the inside, also only repost 6-month old posts or olderĭon't make a comic complaining about another user, comic, or the moderators. Good reposting only, and mention that if your post is a repost. No good ever comes out of them, they are unfunny and trash If you aren't telling a story, there are no characters, action, or similar, then it is not a rage comic. If you need flair to post, use old Reddit! also,take your ironic comics to r/True_reddit, and if you comic isn't telling a story, take it to r/ragecomics.
