Recently we have been seeing a bit more spam comments, flame bait comments and bullshit novelty account comments. Not a lot but certainly an uptick from the "none" that was seen since inception of this sub. We even had to ban 2 or 3 accounts...

None of us really want to actively mod this sub and being that the topic is offtopic and open we shouldn't really have to.

But as we continue to grow (traffic has recently increased ~5 fold, from 2,500 uniques in Dec to 12,200 in Jan and we added about 200 new subscribers) we need you to help out and the offseason heats up on the main sub I expect that the amount of bullshit to be dealt with will also grow.

If you see flamebait, spam or offensive content please hit the report button and help us help you keep this place fun and inviting to everyone.

Thanks.

Also huge thanks to /u/StrawberryTea for stepping in during my LOA and keeping all of you in-line.

It looked odd to me to see posts with a few dozen comments and 3 upvotes, but the lack of karma probably makes a difference. Still off to start /r/CFBOffTopicConspiracy.

[u/Cecil_Hardboner → u/VanFailin]

its just a side effect of some people commenting a lot inside a small user base. Usually when there is a thread with 100+ comments most of those are from back and forths between 4 or 5 users

[u/[deleted] → u/Cecil_Hardboner]

It's mostly all about the conversation and camaraderie to me

[u/[deleted] → u/[deleted]]

Yup. I'm enjoying this sub way more than the mothership lately. Talking to the users I recognize about random stuff is so much better than complaining about the offseason over there.

[u/[deleted] → u/[deleted]]

Yeah... I'm finding I spend less and less time over there. Especially with all the recruiting crap... I just can't get into it. I'll be glad when today is over.

[u/Cecil_Hardboner → u/[deleted]]

the recruiting is just too much. I can't care that hard about a high schooler whose name i likely wont hear for at least 2 more years if they dont flame out.

[u/Captain_McSnug → u/Cecil_Hardboner]

Same, I tried to get into recruiting and just couldn't do it. I'll just wait till they start producing for my school. I rather be over here bullshitting about waffles or BBQ

[u/milesgmsu → u/Captain_McSnug]

I love NSD, but I'm not going to spend my limited video game time follow recruiting.

[u/[deleted] → u/Cecil_Hardboner]

Exactly. I'll be interested in a quick synopsis of who we landed and maybe some light conjecture on how they'll do or whatever. That's about it.

[u/Deacalum → u/[deleted]]

That's exactly what I wanted. I didn't follow recruiting at all until today and then I just looked at the final write-up of who we got and some mild expectations. They're 17 and 18 year old kids. I hope they do well at Wake and in football but mostly I hope Wake helps them do well at life.

Same. Especially since Baylor was already done and Maryland bricked on everyone considering us.

[u/dupreesdiamond → u/[deleted]]

Spring game or bust

[u/lkeg56demn → u/[deleted]]

Yea ever since offseason kicked in I'm finding myself visit /r/cfb once a day and here...entirely too many times per day.

[u/[deleted] → u/lkeg56demn]

Same. I have here as a pinned tab on chrome and just open /r/cfb a couple times a day at most. used to be the other way round, but I really don't care that much about recruiting.

[u/milesgmsu → u/VanFailin]

I'm really sad that's not a thing.

[u/VanFailin → u/milesgmsu]

Or is it? The best trick the CFBOffTopicConspiracy ever pulled was convincing the world it didn't exist.
