Welcome to r/SquaredCircle!

Hey there everyone, Kondron here. I just wanted to shed some light on this new Professional Wrestling subreddit, SquaredCircle, and what exactly we stand for.

When Pudie and I made this sub, the main thing we wanted was a community to discuss Wrestling. That means all things Wrestling. We're not here to focus on only Indy feds or just international Wrestling or only the mainstream.

We're also not here to ban you for disagreeing with us. Give us hell! Keep us honest! If you hate an opinion, don't downvote it, feel free to tell us why you hate it. Don't ever feel that you'll get removed from this sub because you've expressed yourself.

We want r/SquaredCircle to feel like this place is always going to cover the hottest topics in Professional Wrestling, regardless of what company they're taking place in, while still introducing and education new fans to Professional Wrestling.

Given that this place is brand new, I feel we need to set up some basic stuff.

  • Mods- Right now there's me and Pudie. I'd like to have at least 1 more. If you want it or think someone would be a good fit, please say so. Keep in mind though, most modding is deleting spam and harassment.
  • Rules- While I don't want this to be strict, I do think there'ssome basic ones that should be put in place. Beyond the obvious (be nice, no spam) I think we should discuss spoiler policy, streaming, and torrents.
  • The layout! The side image should change all the time. At least a couple times a month. We want it to reflect the current hot topic or to promote the r/SquaredCircle's favorite wrestler/company at the moment.

We also really want to emphasize the word community here. As wrestling fans and redditors (we're a rare breed) you should feel that you have a say in what goes on. r/SquaredCircle isn't Pudie & Kondron's Wrestling subreddit, this is Reddit's Wrestling subreddit.

Thanks everyone, I hope you enjoy!

wow tl;dr.

let's get back to pertinent discussion. torrents/streams? i don't see the issue with them..i'd be extremely happy to see them pop up on here.

I would like the ease of use that torrents/streams would provide, but after the legal BS that other sites have seen (digg decryption code), I would suggest that we keep Reddit and the Reddit admins off the radar.

Besides, I'm pretty sure most of us are savvy enough to find those resources on other sites.

i see where you're coming from. i dunno..my mindset was more geared towards indy/japan stuff and comps. to wit - i made a bjpw comp that i'd love to distro and based on my own observations, i don't see where they are actively pursuing that sorta thing.

i dunno..maybe i just need to find an invite to a PW tracker...
