FAQ

Hi, /r/fantasyfootball.

You may remember our State of the Subreddit post from a month ago. We hope that it provided some clarity on our vision for the subreddit and how you can best utilize the collective knowledge of this awesome community.

As the subreddit continues to grow exponentially (almost 10% over the past month!) we are constantly looking at ways to clarify and streamline the way things are run around here. To that end, we wanted to introduce you to our newly created FAQ portion of the wiki. We hope it provides a clear and concise layout of the way the subreddit operates and (obviously) gives answers to some of the questions that we moderators see most often. In it, you'll find the official stance on questions like "Hey I have an idea for flair, why can't we...", "Why was I banned?", "How do I get better answers in the consolidated threads?"

CHECK IT OUT HERE

We hope you find it useful. As always, if you have questions, concerns or suggestions that are not covered in the FAQ, don't hesitate to message us.

PSA

As you may or may not know, we encourage everybody to post in the consolidated game threads while watching football. These threads help keep the subreddit clean and important information visible.

However, many of you decide to forego these threads and start your own. Some are reactionary threads. Some are appreciation threads. Some are upvote threads. Some are injury reports.

During a game

Here are some images from this past week to help you determine if you should post outside the game thread:

This = bad

Notice that all these posts are a reaction to a player's performance. All reactionary thoughts belong in the game thread. Standalone reactionary threads will be deleted.

This = perfect

Notice that this post is organized and helpful to all. Timely-updated and well-detailed injury report threads are welcomed. If you see a player go down, only post an injury report thread if you plan on keeping it updated (and one doesn't already exist).

After a game

The same rules apply as during the game. However, if you'd like to make a post about a player, frame it such that it encourages meaningful analysis and not excessive circlejerk. Here are more examples from this week:

This and This = bad

These types of posts are reactionary or thinly veiled request for roster advice. These will not be allowed.

This = perfect

These type of post asks a broad question, inviting analysis of a player performance, without a hint of roster advice. Some even provide some basic analysis. These types of posts are welcome. Make sure one has not been previously posted.

We hope you understand our desire to inflate quality. Feel free to ask any questions.

This distinction has been incorporated into Rule 7 of our Rules and Guidelines.
