I’ve really enjoyed seeing this sub grow so much these past few weeks. I’m looking forward to seeing it continue to grow!
I like the small community vibe. It’s like early reddit before all the dickheads showed up. Everyone here is respectful and nice.
Hey hey, I’m a dickhead. I guess I showed up early
I avoided /r/nba a lot over the years sticking to my Heat sub, but it’s a nice respectful community here so far.
Glad it’s growing! The more people we have the more content. I just hope it doesn’t ask devolve into commenting the same damn pastas again and again.
Sources: ConditionOverload is beside himself. Browsing around !nba begging (thru posts) that copypasta is kept to a minimum
I hope more people join us here
I’m not super invested in the sport, but I always try to keep up for when I’m chatting with friends. Happy to be here!
To the moon (if the servers allow it)
Did /r/NBA mods even show support for the blackout? It’s one of reddit’s most popular subs, and I wouldn’t dare moderate such community without mod tools…
They did, but most of the community was pissed about it.
Yeah the users were very pissed from what I saw. To be honest that sub was getting pretty toxic and I was on it for over a decade. It’s nice to come out to a smaller community, reminds me of the old days.
The responses to the blackout on /r/NBA are a big part of what convinced me that it was time to move on. It was so dismissive and toxic.
Yeah hah I was a lurker there. I’ve just been getting into it really, so I don’t know ball super well and didn’t want to get post roasted for my ignorant takes lol. And the hate on “all the pussies that care so much about reddit” made me feel bad for the mods cus they probably cared (with good cause) and they deserved to make their own choice without getting shit on about it.
I thought I’d miss the void that r/nba left but this has grown (and keeps growing) as a community. Been trying to do my part by being much more active than I was on Reddit.
That’s awesome. I’m thankful for all those free agency updates as I didn’t have to look elsewhere.
Seriously. Free agency weekend is a good test of how useful this sub can be. Thanks for the updates yall!
