Hello, I'm part of the tired of Reddit brigade.

submitted by Riot117 from (self.Introductions)

Reddit banning multiple subs, constantly locking content, and blocking users was getting out of hand. Felt like I was on Facebook. Anyways, excited to explore the site and looking forward to a better discussion platform.

My favorite is getting banned from a sub you've never posted in all because of posting in a different sub. Reddit at its finest.

Welcome!

Yes, happened to me all the time! I didn't understand what was going on, then I found out and unsubscribed from those subs. I posted often in r/dogfree - yes, I admit to it - and was hated on for that. Final straw came when gore subs got banned recently. No more Reddit for me.

Yeah, when WPD and the rest started getting the ban it was past time to go honestly. The communities themselves were friendly and they moderated the nutballs for the most part. I found myself going on there less and less as days went and and started looking for other platforms.

Thank you Vulphere!

I'm working on contributing, got lost in commenting and reading yesterday. The atmosphere here is so much better than anywhere else, so I am definitely looking forward to more involvement versus how I normally operated on previous platforms.

And now weary traveler, rest your head, for just like me, you're utterly dead.

Welcome!!

I can't believe you got that reference. 343 points to Riot!

But of course, lol.

343 sends mixed responses though. I can say tank numbers or it references my 117, which either way is absolutely awesome. :)

It was a salute to the 117/Master Chief in your name ;) (Is giant Halo nerd, sorry)

[–]Riot117[S] 2 insightful - 2 fun2 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 2 fun -  (2 children)

Same here! Riot is actually my tag name in War Games :) Fantastic that you got it, nerds unite!!

I was on the QA team for Halo 4. If you liked it, you're welcome! If you didn't... The devs wouldn't listen to me!!!

I love Halo 4!! Legit my favorite to play, so thanks! The whole serious is an absolute blast, must have been the funnest thing to work on. Slightly jealous lol.

The only thing that still has me remotely connected to reddit at all is r/Doom. When Stephen Seanford came forward after the flop of Annhilation trailor aired and said he would make a movie worthy of the title I decided to keep it solely so I could see his moves with that and the hype news for Eternal and some other games like Halo Infinite and r/Halo.
