i have a serious post i probed someone for linking to a tweet that lead to a beheading video it wasnt intentional but i would like the mods and cspam admins input on what the punishment should be god bless

I went to take a look at the thread and the post was quoted a couple times so I was able to see what it was originally. It looks like that was 3 accounts deep in a tweet chain of somebody complaining to Twitter support that they hadn't suspended the account that was posting beheaded pictures? And then they edited in a content warning because a poster told them "wtf dude I followed the chain back to that account and saw beheaded people"?

in the past it hasn't been a clear policy but some problems arose from that so it is a good thing to do. one example i can think of is when a bunch of gbs posters wrote posts threatening to go after cspam using offsites and the gbs mods at the time just edited the posts and saved no record, and so when the admins wanted to see what happened later they couldn't figure out who said what specifically
somehow less problematic than the forums software supporting admins being able to ninja edit posts with no user visible trace of an edit

the account that posted the bad content was hyperlinked in the tweet that was directly embedded in the site, so it wasn't that many layers of indirection.

anyways I don't think a long punishment is necessary but if someone tells you that you accidentally linked to a beheading the correct response isn't to post a content warning it's to delete the tweet from your post

ok thanks

sounds more negligent than intentionally harmful to me and I can believe they really didn't know it was there, maybe queue a day on top with a reason telling them to please be more careful checking what content is right there in the tweets they post and I'll run it for you to overwrite the sixer


e: and yeah also what speng said about deleting the post instead of adding a content warning if somebody says hey there's some hosed up poo poo there

agreed it's bad, but expecting anyone who posts a tweet to have clicked on every involved person's profile and check for beheading videos is silly, there was no negligence here and it shouldn't have been punished (just removed or warnings added)

yeah, but after the fact if you find out you accidentally linked to that stuff don't just edit your post to say "content warning, you might see a beheading"

i would have let it go with a sixer under normal circumstances but i dont think you should go unpunished for leading snuff accident or not. please read the stupid tweet you are reposting first to make sure they dont lead to anything actually hosed up or better yet dont post tweets from random accounts to dunk on

i was gunna say i dont think most people read anyhting below the first tweet, especially a big account like bloomberg or something. i don't use twitter and if i see something i personally never read below it.

but then this is more than fair and the better route, dunking on random nobody twits is stupid

in this case it wasn't a related tweet or a reply, the chain was: twitter employee post responding to angry guy asking why she hasn't banned somebody by linking to the guy who should be banned, and then apparently if you clicked through the link to the guy who should be banned you see beheaded people

edit: ^^^^ yup that's why I think it's dumb to even consider it negligence EXCEPT that they learned it was bad and didn't edit out the tweet completely

but also that tweet wasn't dunking on someone random, that's a twitter employee who was saying twitter doesn't have rules against posting hitlers
