Title: Freespace Reddit
Post by: headdie on December 09, 2013, 06:20:20 pm
I know there are mixed feelings on here about Reddit but I figured that this was probably worth a mention.

As some here may know I have been acting as a bridge between here and http://www.reddit.com/r/freespace/ for a while now, which has been largely dead for a number of reasons.  Well 6 days ago trekkie1701c (http://www.reddit.com/user/trekkie1701c) was granted moderator status by Reddit and during all this I accepted an offer by trekkie for moderatorship as well so we now have a long term HLP member involved in running the Reddit.

So if there is anything that HLP members would like to see happen on the Reddit then please feel free to post or PM me and we will see what happens.  Also non members who are having issues creating accounts here or for some other need to get in touch with an admin then feel free to PM me on reddit and I will see what I can work out with the guys.

IDK what more you could do with the reddit than have it as the news/tech support outpost that it currently is. There aren't really enough people playing FS for a subreddit to be self-sustaining.

yeah I've noticed my activity in G+ shot up thousands of times percent since Youtube made some changes recently. And I didn't have to do anything different at all! Techonological miracles everywhere.
