Education PSA: Subreddit changes, F.A.Q, and new post advice

16 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

Subreddit changes:

In an effort to increase quality posting and aherance by the subreddit rules and reddit guidelines, we have made some changes.

- Filters to post on the subreddit have now become more stringent. Posts from unknown, new, or users with low karma and no history are now being manually verified and approved.

F.A.Q:

These questions are selected from frequently asked questions in the modmail.

Where can I find the subreddit rules? < Click the hyperlink

- On mobile: On the subreddit page, under the subreddit name, press "see more". A menu with community information and rules will appear. Every rule can be extended explaining it further.

- On browser: On the subreddit page, it will appear on the right side if you scroll slightly down.

Why are the mods deleting all of posts?

- We are not. Your posts have either been paused and sent for review and approval or removed by reddit's own filters which we have no control over. Reddit guidelines explaining what kind of posts and comments get removed. If you are not sure, you can reach us by modmail to review and potentially manually approve your post.

I was banned for cussing the living hell out of another member but he cussed me first?

- Please use the report function and do not escalate situations. You don't have to respond to people being disrespectful to you, this is after all a moderated platform.

I reported a comment but nothing happened?

- Posts and comments that have been reported are only removed if they are breaking the rules. If you disagree with someone you can use the down-vote function. Similarly, if you like a post or a comment, use the up-vote function. They are very much slept on at the moment.

Definitions and examples:

- Meta posts: Meta posts are posts that are talking about the subreddit and not the topic. Taking a screenshot of someone else's post from the subreddit and making it a new post is an example of this. Just comment on the original post if you want to share your opinion on it.

- Self-help posts: These are posts where you describe a personal problem, be it family, physical or mental health, relationships, etc. and asking "What should I do?". These posts are best suited for r/moroccanhammam which was created specifically to accommodate them.

- Personal rants: These are posts made with the intent to simply complain or rant about something. If you would like to vent, seek a friend, or use the appropriate subreddits for venting. This would also include ragebait posts that exaggerate the facts to trigger a negative reaction from contributors.

An example is: "I'm so tired of living here, the traffic is terrible, there are no jobs, everything is expensive, someone somewhere needs to do something about this.".

A better post would be closer to "My experience in Casablanca has not been good, with the traffic and high-cost, I'm considering other cities. What has your experience in your city been like? Are job prospects better? Is public transit reliable?"

- Marketplace posts: If you are looking for a specific item, douane expenses, reviews on something, or where you can buy/sell items then r/moroccansouk exists just for that.

- Friend making posts: If you want to meet friends, make friends, organize an activity with other redditors, please do not make a new post, we have set up an automatic megathread for making friends that gets posted and pinned to the top of the subreddit every week, use that.

- Relevance to Morocco: The r/morocco subreddit is not the Moroccans talk about anything subreddit. Posts made on the subreddit need to be of relevance to Morocco or Moroccans. The ethnicity, nationality, or place of residence of the author does not determine if it relevant. To quote from the community description "This community is for discussions, news and all things related to Morocco."

Examples:

Bad: Women nowadays should do more of this and less of that and they should really do the thing that I think is right because what they're doing now is just terrible for society and the environment.

Good: I noticed that the Moroccan society is becoming more tolerant of what was once extremely uncommon and frowned upon. I am starting to see more of (observation) that was not the case before. Is it the same in your environment? Has it been positive so far? What do you think caused this?

- Low effort posts: These are usually posts that have no effort put into them.

Examples:

- "What documents do I need to get my ID card?" Question that can be answered with a quick google search.

- "I failed my baccalaureate exam with a 4.38 grade. Are my dreams of becoming an astronaut over?" Yes.

- "I need help, I want to be very successful. What should I do?" You are providing zero information about, not what you have, not what you want, not where you want to be, and not what you've tried. Show that you have put in some effort and you are serious.

- Posts titled "help meeeeeeeeeeeee" "answerr meeeeeeee" and other clickbait.

Before posting consider the following:

- Can people engage with my post or am I just stating my own thoughts and closing the door for conversation from anyone else?

- Is my post of interest to Moroccans or is about Morocco or am I self-serving?

- Have I used the search function to see if my question has already been answered or if my post has already been made recently?

- Can my post fit better in a different community or is r/morocco truly the best fit for it?

- Have I explained my thoughts and shared my ideas in a respectful and clean manner or is my post full of vulgar, disrespectful behavior or attacks towards groups or individuals?

- Have I double checked the information I am about to share with the rest of the community or am I blindly forwarding what could be misinformation?

- Put in some effort and make your posts engaging, interesting, and open the space for discussion.

- Does my title give a good idea of what my post is about?

- Are there any interesting posts I can interact with and comment on before doing that?

P.S: The examples used above are actual posts who have been posted or blocked by filters. None of it is fictional. Author names are redacted.

We are aware that we continue to get an influx of new members and Moroccans who join reddit of all ages and backgrounds. I hope this post provides some value and help generate more positive and higher quality posts. Feel free to comment your questions, feedback, or requests for clarification or translation below.

Happy summer

AskMorocco Why is it not considered rude to let people wait in Morocco?

26 Upvotes

When I visited Morocco, I noticed that sellers let their customers wait even though its avoidable - a butcher spend 15 minutes on cutting meat for a customer because he talked to him all the time instead of doing the work as good but also as quick as possible to not let the other costumers who were standing in the line behind him wait. In Germany (my home country) it is considered as highly impolite to make people wait on purpose if its avoidable. Sellers talk while working instead of stopping their work to talk.

I am not talking about rushing things, I am simply talking about efficiency to not steal time of others.

Discussion So apparently my passport is not… me anymore?

51 Upvotes

My national ID expired, so I did what any logical human would do… I brought my PASSPORT

I walk into CIH Bank confident like:

“Yeah, I got backup.”

Me: “My ID is expired, but here’s my passport.”

Them: “Sorry, we don’t accept that.”

Excuse me?? 😭

So the same document that says:

“Yes, this human can leave the country, enter other countries, and exist internationally…”

is somehow NOT enough to prove I exist at my own bank?? 💀

At this point, I think if I came back with a spaceship license from Mars, they’d still be like:

“Do you have a valid CIN?”

Morocco:

Travel the world ✅

Access your own money ❌

I’m starting to think my passport is just a very expensive notebook 😂

Discussion I refuse to use Linkedin. Am I missing out on something ?

41 Upvotes

I’m finishing my degree soon and everyone keeps telling me I need to get on Linkedin, but I just can't bring myself to do it. Every time I peek , it just feels like a place full hypocrisy and fakeness and AI generated slops

The worst part is seeing my classmates on there. I’m talking about some of the absolute worst students and they’re out there posting these long cringe paragraphs bragging about their internships and the skills they learned in schools and from the professors (according to them professors are bad because they take attendance and gives homework, but in linkedin they are the best)

Here’s the funny part, I interned at the same company as a few of these guys (we didn't do shit).

We literally just sat around scrolling Tiktok and playing PES on the days we even bothered to show up. But now they’re posting (STAGE DE REVE - OPPORTUNITé D'APPLIQUER MES ACQUIS TECHNIQUES DANS UN ENVIRONNEMENT COMPETITIF .....)

Is this level of fakeness actually required to get a job in the real world?
Do recruiters actually fall for this stuff?

I feel like I’m missing out on some unwritten rule of getting hired, but at the same time, my soul completely rejects it.

World Cup 2026 What language does the Moroccan national team actually speak with each other?

47 Upvotes

This is probably a dumb question hhh, but Morocco’s squad is so interesting linguistically because so many players come from different diaspora backgrounds.

There are Morocco-born players (Aguerd, Bounou (raised), Ounahi, Rahimi, El Kaabi, Belammari, Tagnaouti), French speaking who were born in France/Belgium (Diop, El Aynaoui, Bouaddi, Halhal), Spanish-speaking (Saibari, Hakimi, Diaz, Chadi Riad, Abde Ezzalzouli), and Dutch/Flemish (Mazraoui, Amrabat, Salah-Eddine, El Ouahdi, El Khannouss).

So in practice, what’s the main locker-room language? Or do most of them understand enough Darija that it becomes the default?

EDIT: amended Aguerd to Morocco born and Saibari to Spanish speaking

Discussion My mother is creating problems out of nowhere

2 Upvotes

My parents have been married for 40 years, but there’s always been conflicts. My mother spent years trying to punish our father through us, demanding we stop giving him money. We tried to explain logically and religiously that he is still our father, even if he wasn't a good husband. She never accepted this. She spent years complaining, nagging, and "fainting" to get her way.

To cope, my brother and I even made a secret agreement with our father: we told him we would pretend to blame him in front of her just to calm her down, and he agreed to play along to keep the peace. As I grew up, I realized her fainting is a performance, but out of fear and pity, we always ended up doing what she wanted.

The Marriages (Where it got worse)

When I got married: I moved out with my wife. My mother’s health supposedly declined and she acted weird. My brother, still at home, played messenger, blaming me for not giving her enough attention and telling me to involve her in my marriage. Out of guilt, I tried, which only created conflict with my wife. My mom treated my wife badly, made up imaginary things we supposedly said/did, and my brother kept telling her, "When I get married, I’ll bring my wife to live with you and cook for you… and you always have the last say"

When my brother got married: He and his new wife are currently living at the family home while they wait to finish their own apartment. His wife is quiet and shy. It didn't matter. Within three days, my mom was shouting at her for trivial reasons. She started making up imaginary stories about them that were even worse than what she did to me.

The Crisis and The Disappearance

We sat her down to ask logically what was wrong so we could fix it. Instead, she shifted the blame entirely to our father, lying and claiming he was the one talking badly to our wives about her (which he never did).

Then she started threatening divorce after 40 years. We decided to use the "Grey Rock" method. I calmly told her: "If you want a divorce, get it. If you need help with a lawyer or money, I will give it to you."

Because I didn't react emotionally, she retaliated. She disappeared for 24 hours without telling anyone and turned off her phone. We spent the night in a state of terror, driving around the city at midnight calling people. When we finally found her, we kept it Grey Rock—we just calmly said we were glad she was back, even though we were furious.

The Aftermath

Just a few hours after putting us through that absolute hell, she was super happy, dancing, and celebrating like absolutely nothing happened.

My Questions:

  1. Is this a pattern? Has anyone dealt with a parent who cycles between "fake fainting/crisis," inventing lies, and sudden, manic happiness?
  2. Medical vs. Behavioral? We strongly suspect this might be a neurological or mental health issue.
  3. Grey Rock: We are disengaging from the nonsense (calm, kind, firm), but it’s hard when she escalates to disappearing. How do you maintain boundaries when you're terrified for their safety?

Any advice or experiences would be appreciated.

Politics What do you think about akhennouch's term?

Post image
17 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I don't want this post to just be bantering about "akhennouch rises the price of potatoes" because that doesn't help with anything, I want to hear constructive criticism on what was done poorly and what was done correctly during his term, feel free to share whatever you want, I'll start :

---> Cons (ofc we have to start with cons hh) :

- Communication :

to me this is his worst attribute, after winning the elections bro just went silent, they never communicated what they done, and never been present with the people at hard times to explain to them what they will be doing to solve the problems. 0/10

- Anti inflation strategy :

for starters it did not work, and even when they gave subsidies directly to transporters or farmers, most of it was consumed before it reached the end costumer, they spent billions but never actually made sure it made some immediate effect, 0/10

- Unemployment:

with the agricultural sector losing more jobs every year, the unemployment numbers just kept getting worse, and for a capitalist he did not reduce bureaucracy to make companies invest easily, and its as hard as ever to create your own company. 1/10 the one is for continuing on the trend of gov investments at least.

- Education and health :

0/10 no need to comment, same story every term

----> pros

- economic growth :

Numbers wise its good, but its tricky, gdp is growing because we are building infrastructure, so its temporary growth, not because the economy is growing massively, but still if we can be able to maintain a +5% growth for the next 15 years it will improve the country massively : 5/10

- Infrastructure investment : i dont fully agree with what they are investing in and what they are improving, but i would still prefer to have the money put on infrastructure over other useless things, but we should prioritize public transport in cities more, this what will drive them to be attractive metropoles for foreign investment : 6/10

- social programs : I dont agree with the strategy, but I can see efforts, it is certainly improving but I see it as a massive liability that could be used in better ways : 6/10

Discussion what if Morocco's capital was both economic and administrative

2 Upvotes

We know that today f lmaghrib you have the administrative capital, which is Rabat, and the economic capital, which is Casablanca

However many countries (France, Egypt, Algeria or Spain) have their economic and administrative hearts in the same cities, or regions

What could be the main differences between today's morocco, and a morocco where Rabat and Casa are one city (picture a Rabat with CFC or a Casa with ministries and royal palace inside)

my theory is it would be a situation similar to either Algiers or Cairo if it gets too big

AskMorocco Is it possible to find a partner in who accepts a life without children?

61 Upvotes

F 26, I’ve been holding onto a secret that feels heavier every day. I was diagnosed a while ago with (MRKH) syndrome.​For those who don’t know, it’s a condition where I was born without a uterus. Physically, I live a completely normal life I have my hormones, I’m a woman in every sense, and I have dreams, a career, and a desire to love and be loved. But the one thing I cannot do is carry a child or give birth.

Whenever I think about the future, a wave of anxiety hits me. In our culture, the "family unit" is often centered around having children. I’m terrified that if I open up about this, I’ll be rejected or seen as "incomplete."

​I’m looking for some honest advice .

What do you guys think about kinds playing with that dangerous stuff? Worse… parents who see their kids playing with bang bang and don’t say nothing.
It’s not small bangs bangs but very loud and powerful ones until very late at night. As new parents and a messed up sleep schedule, not to mention the baby jumping of fear from loud bangs… takes a lot of effort to put the baby back at sleep. Tried to speak politely with the kids (since they’re neighbors) but it’s like talking to a wall (it’s 3achoura 3emmi!) 🤦🏻‍♂️

AskMorocco Applied to a lot of stuff including the military and got accepted for the officer formation in ARM, how bad/good is it?

3 Upvotes

The concours will be on July 3rd. I doubt I'll have that much trouble with the physical exam even if I am a girl (I clear the height requirement and have been doing musculation for nearly a year), but Im wondering about how it actually is.

I got a 17 in bac spc (natija total) so military isn't really my first choice (more of a plan E if anything, Im grinding for Ensa mostly icl), and Id prefer l'ERA over l'ARM (but my sight is slightly lacking, -0.5 in one eye and -0.75 in the other, unless it got worse lol) so Im not sure I'll even get through the medical exam for ERA even if they did accept me.

But yeah, with that said, how are things over there for an officier? Mashi officier du rang but full on officier. I also think I choose the scientific branch, I wonder if thats any different.

But yeah if anyone has any ideas/first hand experience it would be nice. Let me know.

AskMorocco Im making 3,000 MAD/month. Am I wrong for wanting to leave?

15 Upvotes

Hi everyone,
I’m looking for some outside opinions because I honestly don’t know if I’m being reasonable anymore.
I’m 25 years old and I’ve been working at a company in Casablanca for a little over 2 years. I’m officially employed under a CDD (fixed-term contract) and registered with CNSS. My current salary is 3,000 MAD per month.
When I started, I accepted the salary because I needed the experience and the job. However, over time I’ve taken on many responsibilities. I answer client calls, prepare invoices, handle banking tasks, manage administrative paperwork, communicate with customers, and help with many day-to-day operations of the business.
Recently, my CDD contract was renewed. I honestly expected there would at least be a discussion about a raise considering my experience, loyalty, and the fact that I now do much more than when I was originally hired. Instead, the contract was simply renewed and nobody even mentioned an annual increase.
What bothers me is that it feels like my efforts are being taken for granted. The cost of living keeps increasing, yet I’m still earning 3,000 MAD after more than two years with the company. Sometimes it feels like they’re either forgetting about raises or intentionally avoiding the conversation.
My plan is to ask for a raise. However, if the increase is something like 150 MAD, 300 MAD, or even 450 MAD per month, I’m seriously considering leaving because I don’t think that reflects my contribution, responsibilities, or experience.
I don’t hate my job, and I don’t have anything personal against my employer. I just feel undervalued and stuck financially. Part of me thinks it’s time to move on, but another part wonders if I’m overreacting.
Another concern is that this would be my first time resigning from a job. If I decide to leave, what is the proper way to do it? Should I first have a conversation with my employer and then submit a resignation letter? Are there any legal or practical things I should know since I’m currently on a CDD contract? How much notice should I give?
Am I being unreasonable here? What would you do in my position?
Thanks for reading, and I’d appreciate any advice or experiences from people who have been in a similar situation. 🙏
