We need a /r/bestofTRP for great comments and discussions
Most of us are busy guys and don't have time to trawl through all posts and all comments in this sub and the rest of the TRP network.
The discussions we have in the comments will usually clarify or better explain the topic of a post or link. Some comments are probably even worthy of being converted into their own post. This is not a revelation since we have already created point flair.
More often than not this top quality content will go unread and won't even be able to be found because of reddit's substandard searching ability. E.g. a great comment might come in after the post has left the front page or it is made on a post that never made it to the front page (of r/TheRedPill)
I propose we create a new subreddit in the same vein as r/bestof where contextual links to great comments and discussions can be submitted. Post titles should be descriptive so that they can be searched and found easily. Linked comments can be sourced from any approved subreddit, especially this one and r/askTRP
There is a lot of great content to be found in our group of subreddits, we need to be constantly working on ways to make it as accessible as possible.

To be honest, it's pretty easy to find the best posts TRP has to offer - they're either in the sidebar, the post "a whole bunch of brilliant posts that didn't make it to the sidebar", or on the first few pages of the "top rated" tab. Considering that it takes at most 2 minutes to search all of those for what you want, I think that whilst it could work pretty well, the need for one isn't so great.
I'm talking about comments, not posts. The best comments aren't always found in the top posts.
Completely missed that, sorry. I now completely agree with you.
