I guess a consensus hasn't been firmly established on memes but I personally wouldn't mind restricting them on this sub, creating a separate Soccer Shitpost sub and linking that in the sidebar.

MODERATORS
That's a fair suggestion. Probably should open it up to the wider community...or maybe just memes/shitposts only on one day a week etc
I prefer just having each thing in its own place and wholly separate, to be honest. I did enjoy the no holes barred shitpost-a-thon once a year or whatever on r/Soccer over Christmas when the mods had a day off. That felt like a proper event, but I'd not want it more than once or maybe twice a year on the main sub.
Nice, I hope this community grows and we get more regular content :-)
I have no photoshopping skills, but I really like the banner over at https://lemmy.world/c/casualconversation
A banner with the logo blending in like that looks really nice imho
I tried to make one but it just turned out shit.
The video bot for goal highlights I mentioned previously seems to be working btw. It copies the post title and url to the video from reddit and posts it here automatically. If it's ok with you I can start it running 24/7 in the next few day to see how it goes? I can try to adjust it if necessary based on how that goes.
Sure, lets try it for a few days and see how it goes. Can adjust as we go forward
Nice to see we finally have active moderation! Hoping to see match threads / daily discussions going :) I know Man U have a bot, and we're working on one ourselves at c/gunners, so that's worth referencing
Thanks! do you know what bot they are using?
I can probably cobble something together in Photoshop. What sort of thing were you thinking of?
What size banner?
I believe 730px is the max width
This is my attempt with my below average Photoshop skills.
Signatures (left to right): Pele, Cruyff, Maradona, R9, R7, Messi
It's a nice, clean and simple design. Overall i like it, but my one bit of feedback is to scatter the signatures across the field (more random placement). I like the soccer ball pattern in the lemmy logo.
Added it but its getting cut off at the top, when looking at the post list but looks good when you are in comments
Did you take a look at the new different design?
This is awesome. I was just asking about moderation a few days ago. Let us know what the users can do to make it a thriving and welcoming community.
Just contribute stories and comments! We will figure out the rest as we go.
I have a small hope that I helped this c/ get going by trying to contribute at least every day with a post so people would see that the sub was active xd
