- andybak 6y agoRather depends on the subreddit. I subscribe to most of the VR subreddits. /r/vive has really strict moderation whilst /r/oculus has barely any.
- markdown 6y ago> /r/vive has really strict moderation whilst /r/oculus has barely any. Which do you think has a better community, and do you ascribe that result to the moderation?
- andybak 6y agoI don't remember much to be honest. I now usually browse via a VR multireddit so I see all the posts from multiple forums aggregated into one. Much easier to steer clear of subreddit dramas that way.
- rchaud 6y agogood point, some mods are draconian in what they'll allow or won't allow. For example, even using the word 'Wordpress' on a reply in r/web_design will get your comment deleted and replaced with an automod comment that that sub isn't about CMSs. I think it's to guard against people shilling themes and plugins, but it's ridiculous considering that CMSs comes up naturally on discussions about building websites.
- xavier_ 6y agoI started this a year ago, with no karma and no friends. Reddit is a BIG forum, just participate, try to bring value, be nice and don't spam. If you do it that way it should be good
