I don’t see any rules or guidelines for posting in the side bar, so was curious how we feel about posts with qualifying and race results? The f1 sub always posts a graphic with the top 3 as well as the classification, while the other f1 community here on Lemmy has a rule against posting any spoilers. Personally I always liked seeing the results and reading the discussions about them on the subreddit, but curious to see others opinions.

    If there’s post race penalties, crashes, important overtakes etc. its inevitable that spoilers will be posted with news/videos.

    When I can’t watch a race live and plan on watching it later I avoid places that discuss formula 1.

    Edit: Not to forget, we don’t have a mod to enforce any rules at the minute.

        Since you’re active right now, is it possible to get some clarification on what rules you enforce and how you envision this community?

        There is for example a Formuladank style post that has been up for 18h. Is shitposting allowed?

        If not, more mods might be needed to enforce and clean up as this place grows, particularly to cover multiple time zones.

          We’ve just put a small mod team together, we’ll get some sidebar rules up shortly, currently we’ll remove anything offensive or off topic and assess other types of posts on their own merit

            Great news, thank you!

            If I may suggest, I think many here would prefer shitposting to be kept to Formuladank, so maybe putting a link to that community in the sidebar would help direct people there?

        I’m my defence there were a lot of people questioning what was happening and no answers.

        If you had login issues that’s fine. Shit happens.

          Yeah still having hiccups, I’m sure its because the server is relatively new and not used to the traffic
