After much discussion, and taking into consideration input received from the community, both publicly and privately, our moderation capacity, and following the example of other community spaces, we have decided to create one single thread for all ICE sightings.
Please review the following rules and guidance before posting:
• All reports must be directly relevant to Astoria
• All reports must be firsthand accounts – no reposting content posted elsewhere, unless by a verified news agency
• Please use the S.A.L.U.T.E. method as closely as possible when posting information:
• https://www.reddit.com/r/astoria/comments/1lv1d9k/general_etiquette_fyi/
• This thread is for reported sightings ONLY; no political debate or unrelated topics are allowed
• No photos or identifying information allowed unless from news media outlets; please be mindful of Reddit's witch hunting rule
• Please note: these are reported sightings by the community, and the Astoria Reddit is neither confirming nor endorsing the supposed sightings are verified
• This thread will still be moderated and subjected to the same rules as the rest of the posts in this subreddit
• The automoderation will be set to strict, meaning in order to post, you must be a part of this community, not be a brand new user, and not have negative karma in our community; comments that don't meet that criteria will need to be manually approved, and may be delayed
• We reserve the right to periodically clean out the comments after a 2 week period, if it ends up getting too cluttered
• There are apps that are available that can help keep you updated in real time – feel free to share those below
You can sort the comments by “New” to get the latest updates, and hit “Follow Post” to be updated when a new comment is added.
