Which of these blond boys does the honorary knight maid go the best with, fellas? And why?

Neither or someone else is fine too, of course. But I'm curious to know what Noellemains thinks. ^^

First of all, apologies for the lack of posts the last few months. Life has been busy, but I want to make it clear that I have still been actively moderating the subreddit behind the scenes ^ ^ 

Recently, an incident occurred that led to a discussion within the mod team. I am writing this post on behalf of the entire moderation team to explain what happened, acknowledge where things went wrong, and clarify the changes we are making going forward.

·········⋆༺𓆩❀𓆪༻⋆·········

What Happened?

u/Sardonyx-Animation posted a picture depicting Noelle and Barbara kissing on top of a car.

The post was subsequently reported as “sexual or suggestive content involving minors.”

The moderation team reviewed the reports. The majority of us felt that the post did not constitute NSFW content, as a kiss by itself is not inherently sexual or explicit. Based on that interpretation, we ignored the report and let the post remain up.

However, some members of the moderation team were concerned that leaving the reports unaddressed could potentially make it appear that the subreddit was not being adequately moderated and could result in action from Reddit administrators. As a result, the post was removed, and the rest of the moderation team was informed through our mod chat. This led to a broader discussion among the moderators about how the situation should have been handled.

During this period, some members of the community voiced their concerns through posts and modmail. Unfortunately, because of a lack of consensus and ongoing discussions between the mods, some of these posts were removed or locked, and some users were also temporarily muted.

After discussing the matter further, we ultimately reached a majority decision that the original post did not violate our subreddit rules.

As a result, we recognize that the actions taken against the post and the subsequent handling of the situation were unjustified.

We sincerely apologize for taking so long to reach a conclusion and, more importantly, for the way the situation was handled in the meantime. We understand that the inconsistent decisions and lack of clarity understandably caused frustration within the community.

We also want to make one thing particularly clear: Content that follows our rules is welcome on this subreddit, including shipping content.

·········⋆༺𓆩❀𓆪༻⋆·········

We decided to take this opportunity to clarify our existing rules as well as add a rule about spoilers. The updated rules can be found below:

1. Treat Others With Respect

Golden Rule: Treat others the way you would like to be treated.

Please be respectful and considerate toward other members. Harassment, hostility, or deliberately disrespectful behavior will not be tolerated.

2. No Explicit Content and Mark NSFW Appropriately

Explicit sexual content is strictly prohibited.

Content containing slight nudity or suggestive imagery must be appropriately marked as NSFW. This also applies to fanfiction or other written content containing NSFW material.

When in doubt, err on the side of caution and use the NSFW tag.

3. No Reposts

Please avoid reposting content that has already been shared within the community. We encourage members to put effort into creating or sharing fresh and original content related to Noelle.

4. Always Credit Your Sources

If you are sharing someone else's artwork, please give proper credit to the original artist and provide a link to the source where you found or obtained the work. The same applies to fanfiction and other forms of submitted content.

Most importantly, always ask the creator for permission before reposting their work. Credit alone does not replace the creator's permission.

5. Keep Content High Quality

AI-generated content is not permitted in this community. Posts containing AI-generated content will be removed. We want to maintain a high-quality community focused on genuine artwork, writing, and contributions from creators.

6. Mark Spoilers

Please use the spoiler tag when posting leaks or in-game content related to new events or story quests that are 7 days old or less.

To help prevent accidental spoilers, please also keep your post title completely spoiler-free.

Further, we expanded our post flairs to better organize the subreddit and make it easier to find the content you are interested in.

Existing Flairs

Art
For artwork, videos, scenic in-game screenshots featuring Noelle, handicraft, etc.

For discussions about lore, characterization, builds, buffs, and other Noelle-related topics.

Guides & Tips

New & Updated Flairs

Shipping
A dedicated flair for shipping-related content. This makes it easier for members who enjoy this type of content to find it, while allowing those who prefer not to see it to easily browse other flairs instead.

IRL
Formerly the Cosplay flair. This flair is now broader and includes cosplay, cooking, merchandise, and other Noelle-related content from the real world.

·········⋆༺𓆩❀𓆪༻⋆·········

We hope these changes will make the subreddit a more welcoming, transparent, and enjoyable place for everyone who enjoys Noelle!

Thank you for your patience and understanding!
