NFL on Reddit
Rules
- PLEASE DO NOT DOWNVOTE AN ARTICLE BECAUSE YOU HAVE ALREADY HEARD/DON'T WANT TO HEAR ABOUT IT
- Likewise, if you want to submit breaking news, please sort by NEW to see if there is already a submission concerning said news.
- Read and follow the Rediquette before posting/voting.
- Trash talking is allowed, that is half of the fun in sports. But don't be a dick and make it personal.
- Please don't downvote opinions just because you disagree with them. The down arrow is for comments that add nothing to the discussion. NEVER downvote because of the logo next to a commenters post.
- No politics. Political posts or comments that have reduced themselves to political debate will be deleted.
- While these rules should be a copy of the rules in the sidebar, the rules in the sidebar trumps these rules (because a malicious user could edit these, but not the sidebar).
Posting new stories
Before posting, please visit the new tab and see if your story has already been posted. Duplicates will be deleted without warning to make sure all discussion about a topic happens in one thread.
Game threads
During playoffs, the mods have been posting game threads using the NFL_Mod account to avoid the mess of multiple people posting game threads and ensure the quality.
- Game threads may be posted no earlier than one hour before scheduled kickoff. This is to avoid them getting lost in the flood of posts on game day.
- Anybody can make game threads, but please check to see if one already exists.
- They must start out with the text "Game Thread:" to get the sweet football logo and green title.
- The title and text area of the game thread must be completely free of bias.
- Any game threads not following these guidelines will be deleted.
- Please use the following template (you can omit the Weather and Headlines sections):
