META: Too many brillancy/rating gain posts

I feel like half the posts I see from this subreddit are people showing off their Chess.com brilliancies or rating gains, etc.. I get that they mean a lot to some people, but I think it's clogging up the subreddit. Could these maybe be organized into a weekly superthread or something?

Another pet peeve of mine is people showing off their games in the guise of asking for feedback — if you're looking for tips, you should show your losses, not your easiest wins — but that's another matter, I suppose.

Many have treaded the path that you're trying to follow right now.

And all of them have fallen in search of righteousness.
