Please Use That Rec Button

by southjersey89 on Jan 10, 2010 10:44 AM EST

Within the past 12 hours, and probably the next few days, there will be a lot of new fanposts on this site. As I'm sure you all have noticed, 90% of them are a steaming pile of incoherent garbage. Furthermore, these shitty posts (which reminds me of the Eagles performance last night) are being put up so fast that they are bumping out possible legitimate fanposts so that we may never see them.

Please, let's start rec'ing the good posts so we can have some quality football discussion, instead of having to sift through the debris to find it.

Good call

I feel like I’m wasting a butt load of my time reading some of these garbage fan posts.

someone with a sense of mind in all this maddness, thank you southjersey.

Wish

There was a non-Rec option so that stupid posts that basically consistent of “McNabb sucks/McNabb stays” and other pointless ones could be quickly moved off the list that appears.

you could flag it i guess

Nah

No reason to flag unless it is some jacka$$ Cowboys/Yanks/Lakers fan who posts some cr@p about how the “Cowboys rule!”

I'd like that option too

but I guess you open up a can of worms as far as hating goes. Technically, if we actually used the rec button right, we’d accomplish the same thing by having stuff with recs and stuff with zero recs

i have preached this for over a year now …. i even criticize people most of the time when they put +1 in a comment telling them to +rec and it hasn’t really sunk in completely but ive slowly but surely converted a small amount of our population … so lets hope constant reminders will help enforce it …
