Hey there, folks!<\/p>\n As you're probably aware, there are quite a few very talented, very funny artists who offer their comics in \/r\/Funny<\/a>… but there are also a growing number of "comics" here that are little more than low-effort ways of bypassing Rule 9. Moreover, subscribers have been expressing their concerns\u00b9 that comics (of both varieties) almost always eclipse every other variety of content offered here.<\/p>\n Basically, on any given day, a poorly made comic featuring a stolen joke has a much better chance of being seen than something well-produced and original. Some of this is the fault of the "Ennui Engine," but it's also the result of there being so many<\/em> comics posted in \/r\/Funny<\/a>.<\/p>\n To address this, we're going to experiment with a new approach:<\/p>\n Going forward, comics may only be posted on Wednesdays and Sundays PDT (Pacific Daylight Time), and only by the people creating them.\u00b2<\/p>\n Our hopes with this are is twofold: <\/p>\n By limiting "comic days" to two days a week, other original content will get the chance that it deserves. <\/p>\n<\/li>\n Wednesdays and Sundays will come to highlight \u2013 with the help of discerning voters, of course \u2013 the best comics submitted to the subreddit.\u00b3 <\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n Those of you who have had nothing better to do than read our rules<\/a> and stay up to date on all of our announcements will know that we aren't really<\/em> changing much, but even so, we wanted to mention the update, explain the reasons behind it, and give folks the chance to discuss\u2074 everything.<\/p>\n We'll be trialing this over the next few weeks, and we may end up adjusting things\u2075 slightly. <\/p>\n If you have any questions, comments, or suggestions, please feel free to share them here… and thank you, as always, for subscribing to \/r\/Funny<\/a>!<\/p>\n \u00b9 These concerns have ranged from eloquent critiques to "BLARGH BAD COMICS BAD!"<\/sup><\/p>\n \u00b2 That is to say, comics may only be posted by the people creating the comics. We're not sure who creates Wednesdays and Sundays.<\/sup><\/p>\n \u00b3 We thought about "Comic Deathmatch Days" as a label, but we didn't want comedians to get startled and start attacking each other.<\/sup><\/p>\n \u2074 No doubt these discussions will be well-informed and well-thought-out, and definitely not text-based screaming matches.<\/sup><\/p>\n \u2075 This turn of phrase wouldn't have sounded naughty without this footnote.<\/sup><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Going forward, comics may only be posted on Wednesdays and Sundays.
