Hey everyone,

We want to be completely transparent about what’s been happening behind the scenes.

Over the past few weeks, Reddit admins have started cracking down on subs that post political, off-topic, or “low-effort” content — even when it’s obviously satire or harmless shitposting. Unfortunately, r/CirclejerkSopranos got flagged in that wave.

We were told, directly and indirectly, that if we didn’t clean things up, the subreddit could be taken down permanently.

What This Means

To avoid a ban, we’ve had to remove a lot of posts that don’t fit Reddit’s updated enforcement standards. That includes:

Political jokes or memes — even if they use Sopranos screenshots

Non-Sopranos posts, current-event edits, or general internet memes

Some of the more “random” or off-topic shitposts the sub used to allow

We know that kind of content was part of the sub’s identity and humor. We didn’t want to change it — but Reddit’s moderation team made it clear that if we didn’t comply, the entire community could be wiped out.

The mod team isn’t happy about this either. None of us want to over-moderate or kill the vibe — we’re just trying to keep the sub from getting banned.

Anyways $4 a pound. It's up to you guys if you'd like to keep this sub around.

EDIT:

Whatever happens to this sub, thank you for the last 8 years. It’s been an honor to be joined by men of honor.

Ah salud
