It's probably going to take a while, but if you make an account on Reddit I can add you to what we have now. Just send me a PM with your username.

A picture is worth a thousand words. Post 102 is worth more.

I’m late to the party, but I think this is the best song. Enjoy!

So I'm assuming that the discussions on these projects, like the Alice in Wonderland 35mm, are much more active over there than here? That's one I've been interested in.

I don't think that one's active anywhere at the moment, but I expect it will be more active at AMPS in the near future.

Looks like I'll be out of the loop, then... I make it a habit to NOT visit Reddit.

Why? Does it have cooties or something? ;)

Mind you, I'm not yet totally sold on this, but I need to follow at least one project over there.

Where were you in '77?

Do you not like the UI/UX or does it have to do with their hands-off-until-the-shit-hits-the-fan policy like with e.g., /r/underage and /r/TheFappening?

Can you please consider visiting for just one subreddit? You're a valued member and it would be a shame to lose you.

Correct, but the old forum will be kept around for a little bit to ease the transition.

Has to do with me seeing the site itself as a cesspit, similar to the chans.

I've never used reddit, but I am making an exception for AMPS. Honestly, it'd be a shame if the move killed the group just because nobody was willing to use reddit. There hasn't been any activity on the AMPS subreddit in almost a day. Come on people...

I need to work with nirbateman to clean it up. It's my fault, really. I told him to make separate threads.

I think we need to come up with some posting guidelines so that the experience is a bit more smooth.

Funny ..... you mention subreddit as a quick alternative for AMPS for specific reasons yet since reddit is said to be a cesspit some folks are going to treat AMPS like a cesspit?

Sadly no good deed goes unpunished .......

Did anyone offer any better suggestions Ant? 

I bet not. 

:(

P.S.

Ant, love your ST:TNG reference in your title.

So I take it this is where I go to complain about reddit...so...boo reddit!  Trying to read anything there makes my eyes bleed.  Something about the layout/format, I can't explain exactly.

Reddit enhancement suite will make the comments sort somewhat better. It also gives you a dark mode if the white is too bright for your eyes.

I agree with Frink, even though I think he's being facetious. The move to Reddit is a necessary sacrifice, though. quality<freedom

That said, Reddit sucks! :)

I'm not a Reddit fanboy. I chose to move AMPS there because of how hands-off they are and how quick-and-easy it was to setup. Plus, free SSL! Woohoo!

With that being said, I think Reddit is a decent Usenet(discussions) replacement.

Me too! Which newsgroup(s) do you use most often?

I've been trying to revive alt.video.laserdisc.
