hey! I went on reddit to invite people over here on a subreddit…
And asked if someone would be interested to create maintain a magazine/community that don’t exist here. I got shit over…
Thoughts?

    Your intentions are good, but to be fair to the reddit crowd, the way your post was written reads a lot like an advertisement. Trying to convince others like this is typically unproductive - people will just go to wherever the content is. It’s up to all of us to generate that content and give them a reason to migrate out of their comfort zone.

    You should just start up a magazine yourself if you want one to exist, even if you’ve never moderated before. It’s not that big a deal at this early stage and if it grows big enough, you can always hand it off to someone else.

      i didn’t know i could give the magazine over to someone else… sweet!
      And yeah… after a while it felt a little like i was a jehovah’s witness knocking at their door at 6 am.

      That’s what I did with St Louis Blues. There was no community here to I started one, asked for help and already have a second mod. We try to post1 or 2 news stories a day to start. Convo will happen when off-season really kicks in and then we will have pre-season and by then Lemmy/Kbin should be established.

      As soon as I find someone with the passion for it I am transferring the community though, I have enough to mod lol
