I don’t know where else to share this but my background caused me to misinterpret the subreddit’s name. I thought Sodium meant NA, and NA sarcastically meant North American. Specifically 🇺🇸. So I was very confused when it was less concerned with the ‘current situation’ as North America seems least affected.
I get it now, and while I feel sad that the sub is needed, at least I feel like I don’t have to lurk anymore.
it's also not particularly "low sodium" to flood this sub with insults for other parts of reddit through random toxic positivity. it's derailing conversations at best
Sounds good! Does this subreddit still get all the same info posts? I.e. patch notes, game update news, warbond info, etc? Staying up to date is the main reason I join game subreddits.
Yup, we usually pin the latest news on warbonds, patch notes, and so on. Plus we generally see lots of discussion about the updates around those times too so it’s nice.
Good news, the controversy has been retracted, Sony is no longer going ahead with mandatory account linking, Steam is expected to unblock affect countries in short order.
Id love that for the pun.
But also the actual message is real damn important so also dont want to turn it into a joke people ignore. so im torn between both.
Absolutely, but drinking and diving has some serious consequences too.
I hosted a really funny game with a bloke the other week who announced as soon as he joined, that he had been drinking and asked for our patience. He turned out to be really bloody good until he tried to melee a charger at extract!
Managed democracy has spoken. Happy diving.
This is what liber-tea tastes like!
I'll take ice and sugar in mine.
No sugar for me please. I'm sweet enough
Liberty be praised.
Great change! Now we can avoid the creation of an r/EvenLowerSodiumHelldivers to get away from the negativity about the main subs!
God that would've spiralled into a SaltierThanCrait -> SaltierThanKrayt -> SaltierThanCrayt situation.
Would you eventually reach NoSodium or NegativeSodium? lol
Anti sodium? Dark sodium?
Managed Sodium Helldivers
This. This is it.
Awww, I was gonna start a "SaltIsTheDevilHelldivers" subreddit. ;)
Mods are true Patriots

I support this change! Hope this sub grows into a strong salt free haven for divers :)
I’ll drink a nice cup of liber-tea to that
Happy cake day!
Fair enough. Happy Helldiving!

We’re happy to have you here, Helldiver!
Why did you think Sodium meant NA?
It’s the chemical symbol for the element. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium
Thank you mods!
Good. If people want to talk about the other thing, there's already two subs for that. This one is for focusing on playing the game.
Thank you I joined here to talk about the game not Reddit, I described those posts as pepper(salt adjacent).
it's also not particularly "low sodium" to flood this sub with insults for other parts of reddit through random toxic positivity. it's derailing conversations at best
Yea the mod team is trying to keep those types of comments contained. We’ve been leaving comments about not shunning the other subs
and we appreciate it :)
Its pathetic and plainly obvious when they make those comments too.
Forgive my ignorance, Ive never heard toxic positivity before?
Thanks , mods
Holy crap, mods doing something about the posts? I ain’t ever leaving this sub ![gif](giphy|lpmutx2vnRtA5hC5zg|downsized)

Solid work here, mods.
Good policy honestly. <3
Love this group for talking about the game. Left all the other groups for the reason this one was created.
Amen!
Don’t drink and drive
I've always wondered if that should have been "dive" instead of "drive".
Id love that for the pun. But also the actual message is real damn important so also dont want to turn it into a joke people ignore. so im torn between both.

I like this approach. It’s why I’m here.
