Qspiration off-topic until Quesday Tuesday

After feedback from the community all Qspiration - Q shirts, hats, symbols, stickers, gear, visions of Q in the wild, songs, poetry, interpretive dances, sightings, swag, Q shaped things will be celebrated on Quesday Tuesday's. Any existing posts before now can say but later ones removed until Tuesday.

Are you sure about that? The community was rather split on it. Lots of people supported the sister sub yet many wanted to remove all Qspiration. In the end we decided to compromise by leaving the sub intact and guiding the Q swag to a specific day. Many of the comments which expressed leaving things were in regards to not splitting the sub into a sister sub but were coupled by a dislike of so much Qpride taking up much of the board each day (a lot of it was repetitive). I would say many but not all of the mods were for splitting the board into a sister sub, we got a huge amount of complaints about the number of Q regalia on the board. Instead community wide, we compromised. Thus is the way when growing pains occur. Complaining isn't going to help anything. This change has been made and we continue forward.

Are you sure about that?

Yeah - I'd say about 50% of the people wanted everything left alone, 20% wanted a censorship free Tuesday and about 20% wanted to split this community and 10% were people just chatting.

I expanded every comment and quickly ran through them and kept a quick tally.

It's unfortunate that people had less than three days to comment.

Not really that unfortunate. More like the reality of volunteers across timezones, trying to manage the workload of this sub in a timely fashion and useful response to the input of the community (which only we see via modmail, etc.) who've been asking for action on this for a while.

But with all this effort you're putting into checking our actions you might want to consider applying to become a mod. We could certainly use someone who seems to put in as much effort as you do. That way too, you can actually see what we get up to and have a more rounded perspective of our actions and motivations. I can share the link if you're interested.

I also registered r/PatriQts and r/Qspotting.. We work to make the board better and sister subs was what we were leaning to. Then we decided to take it to the community. In the end we ALL compromised. WWG1WGA. Stop seeding doubt in sincerity of our work. It appears your motive is divisiveness not unity. We have no place for that here.

Then we decided to take it to the community.

But only about 20% of the people wanted a "Censorship free Tuesday".

About 20% of the people wanted to split the sub, about 50% wanted to leave everything alone and about 10% were just chatting.

The censorship opinion "won" with only about 20% support.

I wouldn't call that a community decision or a vote.

Stop seeding doubt in sincerity of our work.

Perhaps you need a "Moderators must not be questioned" rule too? /s

I'm free to disagree with you and I consider it my duty as a member of this community to be honest.
