moved my post just for you spants. I guess you did read about my post was “for fun?” You’re way too serious.

It's a safe bet that quite a few others felt the same way Spants did about your Fanpost, TNCardsFan

It has nothing to do with her being “too serious,” and everything to do with the fact that Fanposts are intended to actually have some substance, regardless of whether there’s also humor intended. No one wants to see interesting Fanpost discussions pushed off the front page by something tossed off in 30 seconds about how we should do lineups based on uniform number, shoe size, astrological sign, etc.

I really wish there was something about the intended purposes of Fanposts and Fanshots in the community guidelines (or maybe there is and I missed it), but until then people who put up substance-free Fanposts can expect responses similar to the one you got.

I'm too serious?

All I really add to the discussion is one-liners.
