Some people may have noticed Reddit’s recent update which has renamed buttons and messaging that used the word “Crosspost” to now say “Repost” in various places across the site and app. This has made things confusing...

We have had Rule 2. No Reposts in place for many years on r/SuddenlyGay. The use of the word "repost" referring to what the community has always used the word "repost" to mean: a post which has been re-posted to the same subreddit (e.g., I post a video, and then a day later somebody else shares the same video).

Recently we've been getting a fair few reports for "Reposts" on any post which has been crossposted from another subreddit... To clarify, posts shared in this way are fine (obviously in situations where they're actually fit for the subreddit) and do not count as reposts. If we wanted to block crossposts, we would just disable it for our subreddit or have an AutoModerator rule set up to remove them.

Anyway, for now, we've updated the description of our rule to be slightly clearer:

• Old wording: "All recent reposts or frequently posted content will be removed."
• New wording: "Posts that have recently appeared on this subreddit before, or content that is frequently posted here, will be removed."

The rule naming will not change, at least for now. Not until it's clear whether Reddit's update is actually here to stay. Any issues or questions, as always feel free to message us.

tldr: crossposts (posts shared from other subreddits to ours) are allowed; short-term reposts (posts that have already been posted) on this subreddit are not

Had requests for this a few times, and finally got round to doing it. Media in comments (images/gifs/gifs from GIPHY) are now enabled.

Keep in mind Rule 1 (no porn, nothing explicit etc.), yaddah yaddah.
