No one’s suggesting anything anymore and everyone seems to have lost interest in it. Should I still do this, or am I just wasting my time? Yes or No below in the comment section. Mk3 Supra for your time. Thanks.

Stop trying to make it happen

This is what I had in mind when I mentioned there might be days without a COTD. Usage waxes and wanes, Fridays are a lot quieter.

I would suggest a comment, but I usually only have time to skim Oppo most days and don’t always get a chance to read all comments to even suggest one! :(

I’d like to shamelessly nominate myself today in the interest of keeping COTD going:

It’s a monumental effort. It’s sorta clear that the FP authors just pick a comment at random (they don’t choose the most starred one) and nominate it. It would require all of Oppo to help out in finding noms and I think everyone’s too lazy/doesn’t care enough.

If you really like Oppo COTD, I’d say keep at it! I’ll still offer my weekly prize. Otherwise, you can always contribute to Oppo in other fun ways. :)

Last time I picked one at random, E90M3 suggested I do it this way in case people get pissed that I didn’t choose the one they liked.

Oppo has something like 2x the posts the FP has and very few get many comments to begin with. also, mostly not jokes since the posts are about our lives and not random happenings.

Damn...

If people get upset about the COTD, I think they should get over it. It’s your “baby” and you’ve been running it.

Not just that, there’s people who just don’t wanna see it at all then there’s gonna big fusses and threats of banning me from random people... A shitshow. There’s already someone who said “Stop trying to make it happen”

Well, I mean... there’s extensions that block specific authors if they really didn’t want to see you, then they could avoid you altogether.

Have a chat with THE MIGHTY MODS maybe they can help you out with figuring out a frequency (maybe just have it on the weekdays?) for posts... I doubt any of them seriously wanted you banned.

That’s what I do, only on the weekdays. And I don’t know anymore, could just be my misinterpretation of Internet talk acting up again. But there are instances where people just want me internet-dead. Haven’t seen any too recently.

Hey, if you dissagree with me, fuck you!


(I AM JOKING! ) I certainly posted that quote sarcastically, can’t speak for the golem of Calzones though, only through their mouthpiece will the truth emerge

I don’t know either, he recommended my post where I said people’s lack of manners never ceases to amaze me. So now I’m confused as hell.

I don’t know which days have the most traffic, I’m just suggesting. I personally find this exercise (COTD) quite interesting, and I love seeing what people wrote!

Even when users dissagree here, they become friends again, MK and I for instance... we can’t see face to face on politics but our love for the RamCharger unites us.

I think it’s cool, and glad you’re trying it - it would be fun if it took off. But, like most people, I don’t have much time during the day to nominate.

Maybe just do it when you feel like it/once a week/or when Oppo seems busy?

Yeah. Like when I blew that one political post out my ass that one time and everyone was really pissed at me, even the mods.... Good times.

No one here wants you internet-dead, they’re just fucking with you.

Well, except for that one guy, he totally wants you dead.

I’ll start doing that, when it seems the most busy.

COTEOD? (comment of the every other day?) COTW? At the end of the day if someone doesn’t want to read a post on Oppo they shouldn’t click it. As long as its following the rules, I don’t think a mod should/would have a problem with a post. Oppo is 50% shitposting and 25% politics now anyway. There’s lots of stuff I don’t care to see and I just keep scrolling. No harm, no foul.

I’ve been reported for spamming Oppo with COTD posts every day, so there’s that. I’ve since stopped reposts but still have been told that it’s too often.

I shouldn’t worry too much if I was you... mods got angry at your post because it broke like... all of the posting rules.... but then again we’ve all broken posting rules... I also really doubt any user has a vendetta against another user, just don’t take it too seriously and you’ll see the fun in it....


But about COTD and how often it should be bumped (because bumping is certainly important for things like that) is probably a subject of talking with a mod because it is bumping a daily post a few times in that day and the mods might have something to say about that (be it approval or a recomendation for change) But it’s not like they’re the gestapo or something, they are very agreeable actually...

comment of the day is great......... but there are no bad comments. and oppo runs so much nicer, when there isnt a one-upsmanship, burn fest going on to have the best comment.

oppo works great, when we arent trying to put on a show...... nothing wrong with promoting good comments though......

it sort of smacks of trying too hard.......

keep at it while it is still fun for YOU.......

This isn’t for me, it’s because I saw people saying Oppo could use a COTD. All I do is lurk and wait for suggestions on a post, and it’s not to make anyone try harder or anything. Just for people to find the already-funny/regular Oppo comment that they like the best and the one that I feel like most people liked is the one that wins.

I say on demand. I haven’t been able to be on much searching through comments, but I do enjoy it when I have time. When we have a killer one, somebody just needs to mention it in a post and page you.

Well, people are either too busy or too lazy to post a comment when I make a special post for them to do that in, so I doubt anyone would take the time to MAKE a post paging me about COTD.

I also think that there’s less involvement right now because of the weather turning nice. I could try to do it on certain days so it’s not such a chore.

Going to second the CotW suggestion. Not everyone is on Oppo as frequent as others so sometimes comments need a day or two to stew and brew.

Isn’t it funny how, your request for COTD nominees gets crickets, but there’s like 50 comments on this thread about whether you should do it or not? Sigh...
