dlockers: "Help! HELP! I'm stuck in a well!!!"
Goons1-4: "Climb! Climb up and take our hands!"
dlockers: "I'm thinking I should dig... should I dig?"
Goon5: "NO! I was trapped in a well, and digging is a bad idea! Climb out!"
Goons6-8: "Were lowering ropes! Take hold of a rope!"
Goon9: "I've even tied a harness to the end of this one!"
dlockers: "I can feel the ropes, but I don't want to hold onto them... should I dig?"
Goon10: "No! If you dig, you'll hit water, and then you'll be proper screwed. I should know, I almost drowned."
dlockers: "I dug a little bit just now, and I haven't hit water. I'm gonna keep digging..."
Goons11-18: "No! Climb! Climb out!"
dlockers: "Guys, I'm seriously stuck in this well! Help! HELP!!!"
Goon19: "I was trapped in a well once. It took me two years, but I managed to build a climbing machine that pulled me to safety out of a well bucket and a pocket watch. I'm dropping the blueprints, extra buckets, and an assortment of pocket watches."
Goon20: "I've engineered a jet-pack that will rocket you to safety. Stay where you are and we'll lower it down!""
dlockers: "Thanks for your help, guys. I'm gonna keep digging. I'll find the Mines of Moria and I'll just walk to the surface."

**Goons1-20 pee in the well**

Goon21: "Guys, seriously... stop peeing in the well.""

Obviously I don't read the same high brow subreddits you do, as I've not seen a single mention in any that I read regularly

Why are you being antagonistic? I thought mods were supposed to set a good example?

r/all just shows a list of the most popular posts. I haven't even visited most of the sub reddits that have said they won't be allowing twitter links. The sub reddits that are banning twitter are very diverse ranging from Liverpool and Manchester United football clubs to Formula 1, Steam deck, balatro, Warhammer, WoW, r/phoenix, r/Arizona, r/Massachusetts, r/Georgia, r/South Carolina, r/Philly, DND...

The list goes on and on.

I'm under no illusion that BBC journalists get things wrong sometimes, but they are posting under thier real names and what they post is accountable to those higher up in the company and UK law.

It is Irrelevant that they post under their real names if they face no consequences. UK law is irrelevant if the fines are simply sweeped away as the cost doing business.

The reason for that is clear, Reddit is a largely US based membership whereas Overclockers is not.

That is untrue. r/Scotland, r/Scottish football, r/northern Ireland, r/Liverpool, r/liverpoolfc, r/reddevils and many more have or have signaled they probably will ban twitter.

This is a worldwide thing and Overclockers seems to be a bit of an outlier as most subreddits seem to be strongly for a ban.
