Introducing Shipping Flairs & New Rule

84 Upvotes

Hello again, lovely people.

By far the most common piece of feedback we've had lately is to tackle the negativity that's been plaguing ship posts. Everybody's tired and frustrated and just wants the opportunity to celebrate their ship without unwanted comments appearing under every contribution they make. So we're going to try and make that happen...

...using our fancy new "Wenclair" and "Wyler" post flairs!

Initially, the plan was to add "Shipping/Discussion", "Shipping/Art", etc, as flairs, but on closer inspection, we feel having specific flairs for the two most popular ships is the simplest solution. This way, you can just filter by "Wenclair" or "Wyler" and have everything in one place. It does mean scrolling past discussions if you're looking for art, but at least they're discussions relevant to your particular ship.

New flairs mean new rules. You can find it with the others and the automod will post a reminder in any submission that uses these flairs, but I'll include it here for clarity:

Shipping Flairs

Posts that use shipping flairs require all contributions (both posts and comments) to be positive in nature.

• No arguments surrounding the validity of a ship.

• No promotion of a different ship.

• No making assumptions about the followers of a ship.

Similarly, you may not use one ship flair to create a post attacking another ship.

...and naturally, new rules mean new report options. This one is listed as "Negative Shipping".

I should clarify that debate surrounding characters and their relationships is not banned from the sub entirely. You can still use the "Discussion" flair for (polite and respectful) critical analysis, but if that kind of thing stresses you out, you now have the tools for finding criticism-free ship content.

We sincerely hope these changes mark the start of a new era for shipping on this sub, so feel free to comment below with your thoughts.

Meta Discussion & Feedback

21 Upvotes

Hey everybody! This could get lengthy, but please read the entire post before commenting.

Let me start by sending out a massive THANK YOU to every one of our members for their part in making this sub what it is today. I'm gonna be real for a moment, we were sitting on this place for years and it was D-E-A-D. Nobody really paid it any attention, then suddenly, the Netflix show dropped and we found ourselves catapulted into the top 1% of all subs on Reddit. Wild. Except we didn't actually do anything. That was your achievement and we're immensely grateful for all of the positive contributions, theories, fan art and everything else you've been entertaining us with these past few years.

But here's the thing... r/Wednesday doesn't belong to us, it belongs to you. We've been moderating the way we think you would want us to, our intention being to benefit the largest number of people possible and to paint our community in a warm and welcoming light. We're not perfect and we've made a few mistakes here and there, but we're trying, we're learning and we're committed to making this sub the place you want it to be.

With that in mind, the aim of this post is to open up a more casual line of communication between mods and members. We want to hear your thoughts, ideas and feedback, with the goal being to shape our community into one that best represents its amazing contributors. If you have a question about a rule, you can ask about it here. If you think a rule needs to be reworded, you can suggest it here. If you think a new rule needs to be implemented... you get the idea. It's not just about rules, but I imagine a large part of the conversation will revolve around that.

Before we start:

• Respectful discussion only. We know some of you have concerns and you're welcome to highlight them here, but we ask that you do so in a calm and polite manner. Undue negativity doesn't help anybody and harassment towards mods or other users will be dealt with in the same way it would elsewhere on the sub.

• Similarly, this is not the place to call anybody out. We will not be discussing individual users, comments or mod actions. If you have something specific to report, please do so either through the report button or the Message Mods button on the main page.

• Please don't be offended if your comment is locked. It's not a punishment, we simply need to keep discussions tidy and on track in order for any of this to be useful to us. A debate going round in circles with no progress being made is only going to waste our time and your energy.

• A highly upvoted comment or a positive response from a moderator in this thread does not guarantee any changes. Everything posted here is to help give us an idea of where the community stands and what to prioritise, but actual discussion regarding potential changes will be done privately.

• This should go without saying, but we will not be favouring any one ship over another. Either everybody is in, or everybody is out. Preferably in and on your best behaviour.

With all that said and done, let's get down to business!

Discussion First Time Watcher of Wednesday Season 2 Spoiler

12 Upvotes

Season 2 Ep 4 - Spolier Alert Ahead but don't spoil the rest of the episodes thx:

Knowing I'm way behind and now catching up on popular Netflix series from this year and 2024, including Wednesday Season 2, and knowing I'm very late to post this, but I'm curious for those who are watching Season 2 right now and have gotten to around Episode 4 or 5 of the series, that I'll keep this post up.

was coFirst off, can I just say WOW I did not at ALL expect the candy lady assistant (Judi) to Dr. Fairburn to turn out to be the Avian and the daughter of the doctor who had been keeping some of the Outcasts imprisoned. That my jaw was literally on the floor once it was revealed that Judi was behind the crows and was still keeping the Outcasts imprisoned along with volunteered for her father to experiment those Outcast's abilities and injected into her to control the birds. That I did NOT at all expect to be Judi because I thought she was just Dr. Fairburn's assistant and only a side, unimportant character. But boy, was I wrong. Honestly, best plot twist ever!

Before moving on to finishing the rest of the series, I have a theory on why Tyler threw Wednesday out the window from the asylum (as Jenna confirmed that he did). As he had the chance to kill her right there, but instead he threw her out the window. Even though he's bigger than her.

I think I know why he didn't. It goes back to what he said in Season 2, Ep 2, when Wednesday visited him at the asylum to tell him about his dad's passing while also trying to figure out who the avian was behind controlling the crows that were killing the victims, with Enid being the next predicted vicitim.

During their talk, Tyler thought he was successfully taunting Wednesday and getting the last word. But then later on Wednesday goes on completely uno reversed him and had the final say. That during it, Tyler specifically said: "Say hi to Enid for me. Tell her I'm gonna kill her the next time I see her. Make her pay for sticking her snout in my business. I want her scream to haunt you for the rest of your life." (Season 2 ep 2)

When he said that, I think he means it as then he's going to kill Enid, but wants to do it in front of Wednesday for her to witness Enid's death. As he wanted Enid's scream to haunt Wednesday for the rest of her life.

What do you think? Do you agree?

Discussion I love Tyler being the only villain to survive both seasons so far

Crackstone is dead in season 1, Laurel survived but fortunately got put down by Tyler, Judi was killed halfway through season 2, Dort in the penultimate episode and both Issac and Francoise died in the season 2 finale.

The only one who appeared and survived both seasons is Tyler. His character has a lot of potential and I'm excited to see where they take him in the future.

Discussion what if Nevermore had a football team?

1 Upvotes

As a Wednesday and a NFL fan, I’ve been thinking about what if the academy had a football team. What do you think they’d be called? Raves? Nightshades? Or something else? I’m also gonna make a concept of what the field and uniform would look like if anyone is interested in seeing the outcome.

Discussion “Wednesday must die” and Rowan

24 Upvotes

So I just started rewatching S1, and I had a thought concerning all the talk around the “Wednesday must die” theories and Ophelia.

Obviously, Rowan says Wednesday has to die back in S1 because she’s going to destroy the school based off his mother’s premonition. For the premonition to have come true, Crackstone would have won and Wednesday would have died, either when she was stabbed or in that final fight with him. But, this never happens.

Could Ophelia’s writing be related back to this and how Wednesday was supposed to die and Crackstone was supposed to win. A case of messing with what was fated to happen. It’d be interesting for this to come back to a full circle moment where what happened with Rowan and the premonition was really never addressed again.

Also to add: At the closing of S1, Wednesday asks “Were Laurel Gates and Tyler just pawns in a bigger game?” But this question was never answered in S2. Is there still more here, and if so, is it connected to the “Wednesday must die” declaration?
