Oh god I am so sorry to barge in on your website, I was being light hearted get over it dude. Why are you finding it hilarious as even though there might not be corrupt mods or censorship on reddit the evidence that the government IS infiltrating and manipulating opinion and websites/blogs. It isn't hilarious its Stasi-esque. I haven't left Reddit I just saw this site in a post and thought it would be cool to check out and everyone has been cool to me today except you.
Speaking as someone who moderates a default (/r/movies), has moderated defaults (/r/IAmA and /r/AskReddit) and spent one cringe-worthy week moderating The New /r/Politics, the phrase you're looking for isn't "Stasi-esque" but "a confederacy of dunces." The straw that broke my back was when the concensus was "oops, maybe we shouldn't block all of Mother Jones but Kevin Drum? Yeah, he's a spammer." - Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity. [Hanlon's Razor](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hanlon's_razor)
All I'm going to say is that while I admit that last comment was sardonic, I do hope that you get along with him and everyone else here. Sometimes the lack of physical conversation really kills a sentence. My apologies about coming off as an ass. Though I will say it's unfair to say "everyone but you" when I was perfectly nice in answering your other question. A sample size of two comments tells you nothing. Anyway, best of luck on Hubski and I'm sure I'll see you around pretty often.
I like that idea. I realize that this is completely unsolicited, but if you're looking to get to know the people that use Hubski better we have a lot of weekly things / clubs going on: Scifi Club Weekly "What Have You Been Listening to" Music Thread Hubski Drink Club (Mead is this week!) Semi-regular podcasts that are entirely user-made and always open to submissions for ideas. Weekly DJ which just got rebooted. We have a tag of the week which is a great way to find new tags that you might miss otherwise. There's been a lot of other stuff too, and if I've missed any other weekly or semi-regular occurrences, somebody please correct me. That's just to partially explain kb's comment about this being a place built off personal connections since that comment chain stopped in it's tracks.
I'll plug in the #photochallenge since my month is starting soon :) I also liked the #thingstolookat.uh_oh by uh_oh so hopefully we get some art fans in this influx to get the artistic side of Hubski a bit more active.
