- Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
- Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
- Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world

I know a lot of hockey fans would be mad at me, but I would ban hockey fights. I'm not really a sports guy, but I can enjoy hockey and its socially useful to follow at least one sport. But hockey fights just make my eyes roll.
As a hockey fan, I second this. Such a mouth breather aspect of the sport that needs to end.
I don't like fights either. If I wanted to see that, I would watch boxing. But outside NHL/north america they are very rare
The justification I've heard is that these guys have knives on their feet. If you didn't have an approved fight process, you'd have unapproved fights that turn out way worse for the participants.
sometimes I go to fights in hopes that a hockey game will break out
As a German hockey fan, I wish we had more 😅
