Welp, this is weird and I totally never saw it coming. I recommend everyone to head to Reddit. The ME community there is probably the biggest after BSN. It's pretty cool there, and similar in many ways (Both in good and bad ways) to BSN. They are usually among the first to post new leaks, information and theories. 

 

Only downside to Reddit - no Twitter thread.

The way Reddit works also makes it essentially impossible to have the same kinds of discussions that you can on a message board like this.

How would you for example go about successfully recreating massive threads like the Twitter threads or the character threads or some long thread debating lore if you were to do it on Reddit? Threads that could go on for months, years even? The very way it's laid out and the upvote/downvote system is counterproductive to fostering the types of discussions you can have on a more traditional style of message board. Reddit works better for shorter discussions and things like "OP posts link -> everybody posts their own reaction/response to OP" while a board like this allows for more ongoing, evolving discussion as the threads progress, not to mention how neatly organized everything is.

 

If the DA/ME Reddit pages end up being the new main gathering places, maybe missing out on 50 page threads discussing the ins and outs of Quarian buttholes isn't that great of a loss, but there's a ton of other things that simply won't be the same and probably wouldn't work at all on Reddit.

You should probably say something for after I'm gone.

Other than "please don't race to your death!!"?

 

*clears throat*

 

Zip wasn't just a krogan. He was, is, the Krogan.

 

He turned drinking Ryncol into an art and was never shy about his many lovers, most of which were asari. The ones without eyebrows.

 

He knew what it was to be true Krogan.

 

Most of all, he will be missed...

 

argh... I'm not good at this stuff...  :crying:  :crying:

haha, well, it was technically a "spam" post because no words...  :rolleyes:

 

So now I've used words. As if that even matters...

What do you mean? 

Well, there's a few things - no long, enduring threads that aren't stickied, no image embeds, a general focus on short-form posts - but the most significant is probably downvotes. Why engage with someone when you can just click a little arrow next to their post?

 

Reddit stymies discussion by design, since controversial points of view - for a given subreddit - are pretty much guaranteed to be downvoted into oblivion rather than discussed and considered. If your opinion doesn't line-up with the majority, well, there's no point even trying to express it on most subreddits--even if you go to great pains to sound reasonable and open-to-discussion, people'll still just click, click, click away on that downvote arrow. 

 

It's not something that happens to me often, but that doesn't make it any less crippling for discussion; I just deliberately avoid saying anything that's gonna get obliterated by downvotes. It's probably the biggest reason why I don't engage with Reddit nearly as much as I do other discussion forums. And that's speaking as someone who, generally speaking, tries to stick to the non-controversial discussions - cabin decor, for example - anyway! Well, unless something really annoys me.

Hey gang...

 

Just wanted to quickly pop my head in here, completely flaunt the forum rules, and say thank you for all your PMs, support and ideas for keeping this great community alive.  :)  :)  :)

 

Unfortunately, this all dropped in my lap the first day of my vacation, so it's going to be 3 - 4 days before I can really get my head around this. I've spent a couple of hours just trying to catch up. I (to the surprise of no one...) have a lot of feelings on this and will definitely chime in the main thread when I get back home.

If you and elite pinecone could lead us out this nightmare I think we'd follow you like rats after the pied piper.

Enjoy your vacation. Don't think about it, relax, take time off, you've more than earned it!


I agree with ZipZap. If you an EP wanna formulate something to move forward/onward, we'll follow. I'll help out anyway I can, help bring in masses, etc.
