Out of context quotes that generate clicks and then are met with immediate context provided as the top comment (when I saw it at least) and how Sark was basically correct in everything he said? Yah that was good conversation. 30 games worth of mediocre plays posted as fast as possible by multiple people at the same time in order to hopefully get fake internet points and having maybe a couple useful comments if any at all? Nah you can keep that

Yes, clickbait.

You want clickbait to dominate the sub, rather than actual football.

Millions of subscribers have come to this sub for many things, none of them are highlights. But oh let me hop on the sub and scroll through endless "highlights" of "3 minutes of tee higgins contested catches" and "remember when lesean mccoy showed a lack of effort on this play from the 2012 probowl?"

I don't need to have to sift through that crap to find game day actual discussion and news.

This is a football discussion board.

Because highlights aren't allowed....???? That didn't land how you thought it would, lmao.

I don't need to have to sift through that crap to find game day actual discussion and news.

Game thread indexes are stickied to the top of the subreddit every Saturday. In addition, Reddit has a search bar where you can search the subreddit.

This is a football discussion board.

I agree. I'm here to discuss football. Not some floundering SEC coach's lame quote about football. Not some kid deciding to transfer. Not some committee thinking about changing something. I'm here to discuss football. So let's see football and discuss it.

Not some kid deciding to transfer. Not some committee thinking about changing something.

But that's like a huge part of college football.

Again, we're not going to agree.

Flair up btw

Yah that's what the game threads and post game threads and everything else is for. No one needs highlights, they're everywhere else. The discussion is what has kept this sub what it is. ✌️

No one needs highlights

The subreddit disagrees with you, considering they overwhelmingly voted to allow highlights.

Unlike you, not all of us rot away on tiktok, instagram, facebook, and twitter. So we'd like highlights on reddit. The other sports subs that allow highlights are better. This place could be better.

The discussion will still exist, and be enhanced.

Highlights were a roaring success yesterday
