Just what the blind community needs! Another internet radio station! Revolutionary! Soon, we'll have reached our goal: every blind person on the planet will have his or her own Internet Radio station, and will spend all day in drama over it with other broadcasters! It's even more stupider than I ever could have dreamed.

Sorry, am I too bitter and sarcastic for everyone? I used to be vaguely involved in this community. Having 2 listeners was considered a good day.

warning, I go into SJW mode. :)

I think you will like my takes on Vorail, this toxic social media app that is crawling with blindies. You have your gems in there, certainly, but it is filled with every, shall we say, stereotypical blind people? :) My favorite was this post about how cheap blind people are. The irony of the situation nearly killed me I was laughing so hard.

Maybe I am just weird, or whatever, but I imediately just, well, kind of just understood that some of these so called, cheap, people, were just low income. sigh.

Well, it's obviously time to bring it full circle. Let's start VRN, the Vorail Radio Network! Broadcasting the best and worst Vorail posts, 24 hours a day! LOL

There are a bunch of people on Youtube who make money off similar things - reading posts on websites, commentating over other peoples' videos - so I've no doubt it has the potential to be a roaring success.

I would actually support a podcast like that on Patreon!LOL.

Can we ban these bots in this sub?
fastfinge 1 points 6y ago
You, however, have been banned:

> You are posting in /r/blind. Any bot that posts images here must provide a full description of the images they post, for screen readers. If your owner contacts us to let us know all images you post in future will be described, your ban will be lifted.

Guess that will make /u/YAACB happy, anyway.

I am glad you banned this stupid bot. By the way, I never could get the describe bot to work. The reddit one?

Hello there rkingett,

As I'm sure you've noticed, you just got a reply from an annoying cheer bot. These cheer bots have been running rampant on reddit spamming it up.

If you find these bots annoying, please use the following two links to notify the reddit admins and the mods of this subreddit requesting they ban the bots.

$1 to message the Reddit Admins.

$1 to message this subreddits moderators.

Bots that I am tracking: YAACB, protanoa_is_gay, cheer_up_bot, doggobotlovesyou, ThisCatMightCheerYou

Approved, against my better judgement. Wanna explain how being just as annoying as the thing you're whining about is any kind of solution?
[deleted] 0 points 6y ago
With enough support of the reddit community may cause the reddit admins to change their mind on their policy surrounding these spam bots.

$1 is what I consider proper bot policy to follow and these cheer bots don't follow them.

You are welcome to ban me and I'll be gone.
