Why was this post on an YLE article on mining locked?

5 comments

1. Now it was removed as well, what is going on here? 

   EDIT: here is a link to the YLE article in question.

2. Zero content

3. No idea about that one but this sub has been totally fucked for the past week, endless troll posts every day.

4. There’s been a lot of trolls and weird stuff here, but also the mods have been off as well. I’ve seen a lot of posts removed (such as someone with a nice picture of a fish, and some good comments about fishing in Finland) that were removed without comment. Not really sure what’s happening, but it’s very clearly noticeable and not cool.

5. I’m happy to admit I locked it. Posting any old article from YLE with zero comment or attempt at engagement is low effort bullshit posting that deserves to be locked. Try actually adding an opinion of your own, a comment on the article, or anything to actually get a discussion going rather than just trying to farm karma without making any actual contribution to the sub. 

   In the past couple of days I also locked some posts about tourism and studying that were equally low effort and asking the same boring questions that have been asked and answered hundreds of times, with no effort by the OP to get that info that is already widely available. I was happy to see that others also locked or removed similar posts.
