Something wrong with !eli5?

Don_Dickle OP ,

Doesn’t seem to be very active. And since I am on here 9 to 10 while I am at work there needs to be better.

someguy3 ,

Ah so the best to create an active community is to split it even more.

Why not participate in the existing one instead of creating a new one? Even if it isn’t active, it’s got 268 subscribers already. Adding duplicate communities is just going to cause confusion and split the users.

You could ask to be added as a mod there, or if the current mod isn’t active anymore, post in !support and ask an admin to make you a mod.

edit - someone else mentioned !explainlikeimfive which is more active.

don dickie is not the boss there, i guess 😆

What about !explainlikeimfive which already has 13k subscribers? I answered a question there a couple days ago

There’s also an open call for moderators it seems?

Me reading that as “I can’t recall the touch of food, the sound of water, or the taste of grass” and not thinking that’s weird

Why in the world would you split the communities even more…

Decentralization. It’s a good thing

We just want to sleep.

All the time.

Being sick just gives me way less tolerance to pretend I actually want to be conscious

Yea look … diversity and decentralisation … these are good things (and things we can get better at)

But when you’re duplicating topics the onus has to be on you to make it clear why you’re doing and what the differentiation is. Otherwise we can’t trust that you’re not just making a community so you can control it and don’t want to “play with others” that already have an established community.

If mods have gone MIA … you can get the instance admin to help you take it over … there are other options, and you really should just try to clarify things.

Beyond that … if you’re committed … getting multiple mods ASAP (besides yourself) is probably essential.
