EDIT: as funny as it is to imagine that I literally removed the post because it spoiled a tournament result, I actually didn't; another mod removed it (for being low-effort). In light of this post's popularity I'll re-approve it.
YouTube and Street Fighter tournaments. The instant one is over, BOOM, "How XXXX won XXXX tournment!!" videos are everywhere. Or, the top comment on a video is "Great Job XXXX!" It sucks when you never have a chance to watch these things live.
This is very funny but also kinda mean to the kid who was excited about winning the tournament
The mod later edited their comment:
Reddit link.
At some point OP deleted the post anyway. Dunno if it was in response to their treatment by mods, or unrelated to that.
Low effort? I thought winning a tournament was big effort!
Yeah but it takes a little bit more effort than winning a tournament if you want to post on reddit.
Google 1984
Holy shit.
This needs to be stopped.
Holy hell
new response just dropped
Mon passant...
I hate this. So what if a post is low effort? If users upvote, it's fine. Dumb rule, dumb mod.
Technically correct: not always the best kind of correct.
Yeah, too many rules stifle engagement.
r/showerthoughts come to mind. I guess my thoughts were never showery enough to get approved ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

whoa, how’d you get those upvote/downvote buttons?
Those are just their custom vote buttons on the chess subreddit
