PSA: reddit can't solve your problems for you
Post Body

To the people that are coming here with problems, you need to do something about it in real life. This subreddit can give you resources, advice, and perhaps a meme, but it's up to you to do something.

  • Echo chamber posts: "These people need to stop doing X". Yes, we all agree. It's fun to complain as a group sometimes, but if you're serious about your grievances you need to talk to these people in real life. The people that you have problems with don't use reddit, and they won't see your post.

  • Actual crimes: seriously. Call the police. If you're not willing to call the actual authorities then you make yourself look like a scam. Which reminds me...

  • Scams: kindly fuck off. We may be naive but we're in university for a reason. (I don't see many around here but they crop up sometimes)

While I am all for having more subscribers here, these posts really don't accomplish anything. I don't want to discourage other kinds of similar posts, but I'd just like to remind people that reddit doesn't substitute for learning how to talk to people. Also it's way faster rather than waiting for the 5 regulars here to respond.

You may now resume cramming and complaining about the cold. Thanks
