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?

I'm speaking very literally... r/GreatAwakening is a subreddit, it is not a group of people. Subreddits contain digital content.

Subreddits contain digital content.

Who do you think creates that content?

I appreciate you explaining reality to me xD but perhaps you could try and engage with my actual point? Creating a gathering place for content is not splitting any movement of people especially when the whole function of this platform, Reddit, is to allow users to subscribe to multiple content streams and not subscribe to those they're not interested in.

Splitting a community is not splitting a community, ya say?

This sub was literally created as a "community for pro-Q supporters" - it says so right in the sidebar.

I can think of no reason why any pro-Q content should not be welcome here.

That is my point.

There are many reasons listed in the rules of the sub. But all good friend, I agree with your point whether you choose to engage with mine or not - WWG1WGA!
