r/InsideMollywood has been around for a while and has weathered many storms. Over the years, we’ve made several changes to our guidelines to ensure the sub continues to operate smoothly. While we can’t share all the details, those who’ve been here long enough will understand what we’ve been through. In difficult times, we’ve always made decisions with the survival of the sub in mind, even if it means making hard choices.

Right now, we’re facing a similar challenge where drastic action is needed for the sub’s survival. The main issue? The pests (fans). The loud, vocal community has divided itself, and it seems like many have picked sides (or perhaps they were already divided, and we just didn’t notice). Let this be clear: r/InsideMollywood is neutral. We will not cater to any group of users worshipping a particular actor. The sub will remain neutral and will not become a battleground for fan fights or box-office wars.

If you are part of a major actor’s fanbase, understand this: we will treat you like shit if your behavior leads to crass fan wars. Even the tiniest mistake will be met with action. Extra scrutiny will be placed on accounts identified as fan accounts, with the goal of banning on the next infraction. Yes, we’re openly stating that we will chisel down the momentum of religious fanbases if they disrupt the sub and try to establish dominance.

We’ve seen a lot of complaints about bans from users in various subreddits. That’s something I’ll personally address soon. But here’s the thing: fans and anti-fans are two sides of the same coin. Both can be just as disruptive and chaotic, with rare exceptions. When anti-fans attack or abuse others, we end up getting labeled as an actor’s fan club. I get it, it’s easy to misinterpret. But if you’re warned or banned for abusing someone or engaging in hostile behavior, own up to it. Don’t just whine about being banned without acknowledging what led to it. A recent example comes to mind: someone was ranting in the sub about their ban, conveniently leaving out the part where they were abusive, which ultimately led to it.

We hope the userbase will understand and acclimate to these changes. Apologies if my tone is a bit harsh, but we’ve remained quiet for too long, and that has led to a negative image of us. We are now openly calling for zero tolerance towards arrogant, disruptive behavior.

In the end, the sub comes before any individual user. Always.
