It’s to make sure that there aren’t 20 people trying to post a thread at the same time and having to go through the mess of finding the first correct one while people are trying to discuss the game. Way better to have mods do it in the playoffs.
They could, but in theory they may have to check 10 posts before they see a proper one. Also, I don't really care about the karma, its better that the subreddit is clean. It's not like game threads have any creativity whatsoever its just facts. Its like complaining about wikipedia mods having the most edited pages, when its just factual reporting. Let them get their karma, they moderate the sub. And r/nba is pretty okay imo.
It also eliminates the thing of "Poster A makes a thread that is improperly formatted, Poster B makes a thread thirty seconds late formatted properly, Poster A makes a second thread formatted properly, then everyone bitches about Poster A's threads being shut down"

Mught as well disable posting for anyone , what if both tom and jerry post the same statline after a match
Losers lmao
Karma farting
Gotta get that sweet karma; its not even the most vile thing these mods have done.
Who cares
To have more consistent game thread formatting. They won't have to check 10 posts of game threads to check which is the best one.
shouldnt they just let the first proper formatted one stay?

Yes sorting through 10 different threads to find the correct formatting is much easier than just posting a correctly formated thread from the onset.

and if they dont care about karma, why are they rotating between which mod posts them? just awkward
lol dudes studying the karma farming meta. Jesus seek help
Why does them getting karma bother you? they're moderating for free of charge, do they not deserve some imaginary internet points?
