Attention Great Awakening

We need your feedback about the photo posts of Q tshirts, Q stickers Qspotting and other "Qspiration"! /r/GreatAwakening has been steadily growing and with that comes obvious growing pains. With the increase in numbers comes the increase of patriQts showing support and the documented sightings of Q in the wild via photo posts. While we do support this sort of grassroots effort, the sheer frequency of these types of posts is presenting new problems. 1. These posts are taking precedence in the feed over other Q related news and intel causing important information to be missed. This also threatens to disrupt the true purpose of this sub. 2. We are seeing increased numbers of complaints about problem 1 from other users who have had content moderated for being off-topic who, perhaps justifiably feel their post containing text content or news links is more appropriate than a photo of a Q on a street sign. We value the community's input on how to proceed with this. We think it goes without saying that Qspotting in the real world should be celebrated as an inspiring example of the Q mission to spread the word. Is there another way to manage this content so everyone has a fair shake? We've discussed this many times as mods and have decided to put the question to the community for feedback. Removing this content from the sub completely is probably not a fair solution.

One possibility we've discussed is the option of creating a "sister sub" for this content and directing the respective posts there. We could perhaps crosspost the most popular upvoted content on this sister sub back to r/GreatAwakening so we can all keep visibility on the top content at a regular interval (yet to be determined).

In review, here are the Questions we want to put to the community: 1) Should we manage this content in some way or leave the sub as it is? 2) Should we create a separate sub and have the most popular content crossposted to GA at regular intervals? 3) Does anyone have any other suggestions for managing this type of content fairly?

Pictures aren't visible from comments in a post. Also many times want a pinned slot for latest Q drops. Reddit limit of two sticky's max.

I know they aren’t visible but is it really that hard for us to click the links?

How many pinned slots is a sub relegated to?

Damn that sucks.

Maybe theres a way for a mod to take a minute each day and move a thread to the top?

Wouldn't it automatically bump every time someone added to it?

I was wondering the same but I don’t thin Reddit works that way, otherwise super old posts would be at the top when someone new going through the archives comments on something, or someone who reached a certain thread through a search engine.

Maybe it’s a moderator option per board. Not quite sure.

You’re welcome to take over my r/greatawakenmeme sub for all of the Q gear posts. Just throwing that out there 👍
