Community Revival

101 readers
25 users here now

This community is for discussion of dead communities and the planning of reviving them.

What should a post/comment look like?

A post ideally would be mentioning that community, what value it could contribute to the fediverse, how much dedication it would take and approximately how many mods there should be, and a call for volunteers.

A comment should be a suggestion, correction or volunteering.

What is a dead community?

A community which all mods are inactive for more than 3 months, and the modlog has had no activity for the same time.

Please ping all the admins in the comments too, this is necessary.

Rules

The rules are very simple.

  1. All posts must be about a dead community. Meta posts should be marked [META]
  2. Be nice.

... i will work on the icon/banner later ;)

Yes, they are a lot, but if everyone goes for what they like, we may end up reviving some of them :). There's also;

Which I'm trying to revive myself, but help is appreciated

So yeah, I hope we get someone to help here, big hug

I'm still alive as a mod of /c/[email protected] I've been quite busy with /r/roms on Reddit though so I rarely get the time to come over here.

That's fine!, maybe you find someone to help you here in case you need it. If you don't need help, then all good :)

This place is still about trying to revive topics we like, not just moderating them, so maybe someone sees this and decides to post something in there.

Hey shaytan!

Thanks for making this post, it's really great, and is exactly what i imagine to be an example of a good post for this community. I'm glad to see you're trying to revive the more niche piracy communities.

I've checked all the communities and moderators, and it hits the criteria, but as per rules:

To any of those pinged who are reading this: reply to this comment to disqualify your communities, or if you have no interest in modding them anymore.

Hi. Been crazy busy to the point of not being able to mod as much as I used to. I posted looking for mods a good while back but not many really responded; if anyone wants to take em up then lemme know and I can see about transferring though I'm still fuzzy on the process.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Hi! It's no problem. I'd recommend creating a new post for searching for active mods. To transfer just add them as a mod then remove yourself from the mod team. Thanks for creating this communities btw!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago

Np. Some of em do have posts searching for active mods though pinning is a thing now so I'm assuming it's better to do that assuming the original isn't buried in some way.

Hello! I missed that on the rules, I'll fix it

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago

No need, it only works through comments, and i've already handled that.

I hope you find users to mod these communities, and good luck with steamdeckpiracy!
