Regarding posts about pro players
Lately the sub has been filled with posts about pro players. Some of them decent posts, like sharing M2K's thoughts on character viability, and some of them awful posts, like some dumb photoshop shit pasting Mango's face on a meme or whatever. I think that people unfamiliar with the competitive scene may still want to see posts under the "Melee" flair, as something like a cool gyfcat combo is something they can enjoy despite not being competitive players. But I'm sure they don't want to see tweets or FB posts from some dude they know nothing about. So maybe we can add a flair for "pro players" or "competitive community", that way people who don't want to see that can filter those posts out. Because I've been seeing more and more valid complaints about this and more casual players being driven away from the subreddit.
Thoughts?
Also, please you guys, the meta flair is to talk about the SUBREDDIT ITSELF. Not pro players... not the metagame... not metaknight...

It's not like you are forced to press those posts, just ignore them and move on.
You can only ignore so much when the subreddit is usually filled with stuff like this. Ignoring doesn't make things magically go away.
There will always be content that some people like and some people don't, we can't really solve that issue. You can change your settings so that up or down voting a post makes it disappear though.
Actually no, there is no physical limitation to ignoring these things.
Just fucking ignore it. It's content you don't like, and by not clicking on it, you effectively make it go away.
