Default Is there an MB Community on Reddit?

This place seems slightly dead. Wondering how we can get some new blood in here.

People join in all the time, and then they move on -- some sooner than others. I had quite a few friends I felt were chased off the boards -- so to speak. Maybe not that dramatic, but somewhere along the line it didn't work out for them. I had someone I knew from plug.dj join and he got banned almost immediately. That person was equally opinionated as any other member here, but somehow his opinions got him banned. It was within days. Perhaps there was personality conflict. I could have interceded on his behalf, but I don't to be a mediator for two locked horns. I am actually ashamed of this forum, so there was no reason I want on his behalf to get him unbanned, and have his suffer all over again. Also I don't want the responsibility of vouching for someone then they get offend by this place and suddenly has a axe to grind.

So try as I may not advertising MB I actually ended up with nine referrals. There are probably more members who have more referrals. But wow! for not trying I can't believe I got nine referrals.

If you can entice Reddit People to join good luck to you. I hope when they join get abuse by the usual suspects here you won't get that guilty feeling like you laid down some elaborate troll trap for them.

I liked reddit when you could actually see breaking news.

Facebook music groups are what I used to use more in my absence, until they became super bloated echo chambers. I would post a link, but I don't know how well that would go. If you want to see people constantly beg for an admin to post foot pics, join PMC. If you want to see people act like know it all idiots when all they do is listen to basic indie music, join >implying music is good.

Give it time. I came back, and it looks like others have too recently. Not sure if it's because people needed something that wasn't facebook, reddit, or 4chan, but I needed something smaller where my posts didn't get drowned in a sea of Charli XCX thirst posts.

It's just that I've always wanted to ban you and that was the closest thing to satisfaction I was going to get until you really f*ck up.

If we get a series of puns rolling and some YouTube music videos with no commentary, then you can just link this thread for an MB experience preview.

Yeah, I mean there's nothing wrong with MB, except there isn't a lot of musical discussion. I used to post new music to Facebook, but since I got off the platform about 2 years ago, there's nowhere to suggest new stuff.

And when I post things here I'm lucky to get 2 relies.

That's just because you bring a rock niche that's not very often discussed on the site with your threads. Just keep chugging and the musical discussion will find you.
