Thoughts on r/twincitiessocial ?

It's been a year since moving all not strictly related to a meetup posts over to r/twincities and some things have changed with Reddit, this sub, meetups happening from this sub, and r/twincities, so lets discuss.

• Reddit now has stickies.
• r/twincities now has as much non meetup related posts as TCS ever did.

To gauge where people are coming from knowing this would be helpful: How much do you interact with the sub (infrequent lurker/visitor, lurk/visit often,

The mods are the same at both places, it's obvious they don't care about this place or making it look nice.

I demand they spend their free time to develop this place better until it please me.

Nah. I'm fine. Removing the comment was all the confirmation I needed.

It's obvious to anyone reading the "Post your ex-girlfriend's photos" thread what exactly is going on there. It's like jailbait + creepshots mixed. Subreddit Drama would love that one.

Sounds like a great suggestion to me, thanks dic!
