As an Arsenal fan I stand by the Premier League's statement and the independent commission's guilty verdict on Manchester City just as much as any other PL fan here. Discussion of the topic is welcome and encouraged as it is objectively the largest scandal in football history, and it relates directly to the Premier League. Lately though, we've had many Rule 4 violations as everyone feels the need to add their opinion on the topic, whether to farm karma, to stir the pot, or simply to repeat the same things that have been said over and over again, and will continue to be said. Standalone posts that do not contribute anything of value to discussion, and are simply rehashing the same talking points over and over again, will be removed, and for the time being will result in a 3-day ban for users to continue to discourage this. There is a dedicated megathread pinned to this subreddit for this, which is nothing new - the megathread has been up for over two weeks and yet every day the mods are removing tens of low content submissions complaining about corruption and coming up with "punishments" that have been suggested thousands of times. In addition, we ask that everyone adheres to Rule 2, which is the requirement of following reddiquette. You can have whatever opinions you want about the behaviour of clubs, owners, managers, and players, and banter in good faith if you wish, but personal attacks and disrespecting other users will not be tolerated. Be civil and respectful at all times.

Open to user input on how this should be moderated.   submitted by   /u/pumpkinspeedwagon86 [link]   [comments]
