Would be funny to only allow pictures of John Oliver wearing an eyepatch; so as to not give admins the excuse that the name is unrelated or something.

Then a link to this lemmy comm for 'discussion' around actual online piracy on the sidebar or a pinned post; this is our main hub now after all.

A subreddit poll like what r/pics and r/aww would be great, because then you're just doing what the community wants.

pictures of sexy pirate john oliver

Why would sexy pirate john oliver pix in r/piracy bother reddit more than posts about piracy?

I don't know, ask u/spez who seems adamant to keep the sub open

keep the sub open

Reddit wants content and clicks, 'site engagement,' which r/piracy provides. It couldn't care less if you post John Oliver pix, the Unabomber manifesto, or plot cunning ploys to oust u/spez -- 'long as you do it & do it on reddit.
