Yeah I suspected that, although nothing in the rules forbids posts like this. But if the mods don’t like it, that is okay. But I personally think a good variety of both serious and humorous post makes the best community.

That said, I will definitely join formula dank.

For what it’s worth, I like it. Will discuss with the other mods about it.

Edit: we agreed to “Meme Monday”

By allowing memes in the community we may end alienating people that prefer a more serious tone.

So I prefer to keep memes out of the main community

There's also the option of having it one day per week or something like that.

Which is implemented: meme Monday

Can we also have post race/event discussion threads? I find it really weird to see a thread that is a mixed of comments while the race is going on and over. I really miss that from reddit.

Either way thanks for all the work!!

Don't worry. To offset Meme Mondays here, @[email protected] and me have been doing Serious Sundays at [email protected] since quite some time.
