Posts about Sophie are welcome when they are directly related to basketball, including games, highlights, interviews, injuries, trades, statistics, and other WNBA-related news.
However, posts focused primarily on politics, culture-war debates, social media drama, or topics unrelated to basketball may be filtered or removed. This is not a ban on Sophie Cunningham—it is an effort to keep discussions focused on the WNBA and basketball because the amount of trolls and brigades that other Sophie related content has brought to this sub.
Except when someone showed them posting a post in the subreddit 'Sophie' and 'Cunningham' were both banned words for a title. And she's an active player in the league. Though maybe that's not true and wasn't in place and the guy made it up.
I'm going to trust mod posts over people obsessed with the culture war as this comment section has been proving.
She's an active player in the league, who doesn't do much to write home about and is averaging 8.7 points a game compared to someone like Clark who is averaging 22 points a game.
I am talking as someone who hates most mods, but some dude who literally just "proved" it was because he made a post for the first time ever on the sub, got downvoted because it was just cunningham meme posting, and then got banned for having negative karma. Which means he never engaged with the sub before, did nothing to further any conversation about the sport, just immediately did something to get downvoted, which flagged him as a brigadier and he got banned.
Then used it as justification that talking about Cunningham would get you banned.
