As a service to the people of Oppo, I have decided to bring COTD back in a bit of a different format. Here is Comment of the Day version 1. Be sure to read the submission rules below. Some of you may be familiar with this segment, some not so much, but we welcome all of your submissions regardless within these few guidelines. I am looking for suggestions for Oppo only, and front page comments. There will be both segments represented in the follow up post.
1. No links to NSFW comments, or comments on NSFW posts
2. Tuesday through Thursday the comment has to have been made no more than 24 hours previously. On Monday we will have a super weekend edition where comments made later than 4PM Friday are welcome, cause I ain’t cutting into my beer time to do this on the weekends! Request for submissions will be at 4pm M-F
Edit: upon suggestions I have been taking - I will accept COTD noms during the day on the previous days thread. You can search for COTD on Oppo, and drop the comment as you see it on the most recent call for submission result, I will figure it out
3. No comments slamming another member of Oppo or the FP. We are better than that. You can be witty or make the perfect comment without going there. Besides, you will just look like a dick to your fellow Opponauts
4. Comments may be suggested for yourself or others.
5. Make sure your submission is in the form of a link. I will not dig around to find where a quote comes from unless it violates rules 1 or 3 above. If you do not know how to do this, go to the comment, go to the little arrow in the top right, click arrow and select “Go to permalink”. Copy this url and paste it as a reply to the request for submissions post. Comment on it if you want, that is fine.
Okay, there it is. Hopefully this will be an awesome resurrection for Oppo. Thank you in advance for your submissions!

I feel a little awkward nominating myself, but not awkward enough to not do it.

Best of luck with this. I tried to bring it back for a while but didn’t get much more than passing entries. I will certainly do my best to help.

I appreciate it. I did some research and saw your attempt last year with fleeting results. But everyone says they want it, I can at least attempt a revival like you did.

SidewaysOnDirt for saying what we were all thinking before the rest of us could get to it.

would it make sense to have a nomination thread for the future instead of the past? otherwise we have to store the perma links or remember the comments till four everyday as opposed to just posting them up as they happen.
This would require people to use tags, which might be hard for some or periodic reposting of the nomination thread, which is more work for you.
Just a thought

I say we start with yesterday !
Honestly, this is an undertaking in that we’ll need to have either the COTD tag tracked or a daily call for COTD nominees. The problem with a daily call is that it will get pushed down the list and not everyone will notice. The problem with the COTD tag is that it’s a pain to track that.
We need the braintrust to get together.

this is true. I think COTD tag should be used. Someone suggested making it for the future 24 hours instead of the past
