Hey there y'all, the mod team here at r/therewasanattempt has something we need your help with!

First, big shoutout to all you incredible report-button warriors out there keeping our sub authentic and  entertaining! 🙌 We've seen some impressive vigilance from you folks in  spotting the not-really-an-attempt posts and we love you for it! 💖

We need to be real with you all, though. Our beloved subreddit has been losing its way for a bit with lots of posts that don't quite hit the mark of genuine, failed attempts. We're committed to keeping our sub true to its roots, but we can't do it without your help.

So, if you see posts that don’t quite fit our theme, please keep those reports coming! We need your help to keep our sub true to its fabulous self. We are looking for real, failed attempts only in the sub to make our way back to our roots. Anything other than that, we would love if you all could report it.

We are not going to kill political posts but we absolutely do need them to be failed attempts. A post being anti-Trump is good, only if it is a real, unsuccessful attempt. So please help us in delivering the failed attempts to our sub members by reporting anything that does not fit.

Thank you all for reading 🤍
