Do with it what you will.  Figured I would make one for us

Anybody wanting to be a moderator should let me know via this thread, or via PM on here.  DO NOT request mod status via reddit, as I will probably just ignore you.

Only people KNOWN here will be considered for mod status.  Anybody always a DC moderator will automatically be granted mod status over there, once they let me know their Reddit username.

I might end up posting there more than here.

I don't know why though.

I like the subreddit-system and how there's very specialized groups of interest, and the way you can combine subreddit views.
I hate the voting system, and the algorithm that shows the top posts on the 'hot' page (it ends up favoring small light/funny posts over posts with interesting/original content)

I have mixed feelings about this.

Reddit has a very different vibe and community. Sort of like a call-in radio talk show (with all that implies) whereas DoCo's forum feels more like a "letters to the editor" column. One seems to inspire snappy quick comebacks. The other a somewhat more, shall we say, "considered" style of commentary and response?

But this is all probably just my take on Reddit, so please feel free to ignore it.

When it comes to Reddit, I just don't geddit.

Since the early days I found it hard to get excited about Reddit, Digg and similar sites.

Eh, I like it.  For different reasons than forums.  They serve different purposes. At least IMO.
