Cool threads in here?

https://www.reddit.com/r/soccerstreams/ - provides links and acestreams for all football matches that are televised
https://www.reddit.com/r/Marriage/ - weird marriage questions and advice

[Spammer]

I like Reddit but I try and avoid the comments on most subs. It often just feels like people trying to outdo each other.

[Lewis]

Imgur collates all the stuff worth seeing, and then I just ring Randrew up for some neckbeard stuff.

[Baz]

I don't understand Reddit.

I use it purely to ctrl+f the streams I want, for different sports.

[Disco]

It's just a messageboard with the threads/posts rated by popularity rather than time/date. A lot of it is either shit or endless in jokes and references, just imagine every thread here descending into turtle/Stefan Postma references.

[Magic]

Imagine? Phonics mentions fucking Postma in nearly every thread.

[Disco]

Ok, well now imagine that you bothered reading any of them.

[randomlegend]

Reddit is good if you have specific interests that have good subreddits. I use the league of legends subreddit (which isn't a good subreddit but never mind) because I'm interested in the game and it's the most convenient place to find all the content I might want to see.

I do browse r/all sometimes and if I see something interesting I'll spend a while exploring that subreddit, good way to procrastinate.

Like I found myself on this sub the other day, which was quite cool for half an hour: https://www.reddit.com/r/chemicalreactiongifs/

[Disco]

Fuck, I had things to do this evening too (Catastrophic Failure is a good one too).

[Spammer]

Does anyone have any funny subs?

'Funny' is alright, but it isn't that funny. There was another that had me pissing myself each time but I can't remember it's fucking name.

r/holdmyfries has its moments.

The bloke posting about his son sodomizing their dog was a laugh. His wife didn't buy it and ended up leaving him over it apparently.

:D

Made up maybe? Who would have the imagination to even go there though. Jesus.

What a sub reddit that is though. I've only perused the first page and already come across such gems as "Tried to kill an old relative. She died in a few weeks anyways" and "My daughter’s friend was passed out drunk and I felt her up ". :D /:|

Oh that is absolutely superb.

Who knew Reddit was so good!

[phonics]

Confessions, much like nosleep is a load of made up wank. It's creepypasta for the reality tv generation.

[7om]

Yeah, but nosleep actually advertises itself as fictional. Some of the 'confessions' do seem quite far fetched but I just read one about a guy with a micropenis and couldn't help but feel genuinely sorry for the geezer.

[phonics]

The micropenis bloke actually posted a picture of his cock tbf.

[Lewis]

How much have you spent on self-help books?

[Magic]

About 20 quid.

[Magic]

So I read the one about the woman who recorded herself sleeping with her smartphone (can't remember why). She was a single mum with a wee girl in the other room. Anyway she posted 21 seconds of this recording, it picked up what sounded like some guy fucking around with a bottle of something, then she asked him what he was doing and he replied nothing.

I didn't think anything of it after reading a fair bit about it, but I woke this morning at 3:30am basically having a mini panic attack. My heart was on fire and I was sweating like a bitch. All I could think about was shutting my eyes and seeing someone flipping a fucking bottle top. I didn't get back to sleep. :(

[Giggles]

You deserve it for chasing all this stuff down. You've a warped mind so its all bound to catch in there.

[Magic]

I thought if anything the Jonestown audio would get me, but no.

r/wowthissubexists (I think that's it) is good for coming across the stranger parts of Reddit.

Reddit is pretty awesome for wasting some time since there's a community for almost every interest. It's probably what keeps me away from here at times tbh. r/all is terrible, though.

Does Reddit still put the posts in a stupid order that can't be followed?

[Raoul Duke]

Does Reddit still put the posts in a stupid order that can't be followed?

That's kinda the point of Reddit - it's (by default) sorted by most upvoted, rather than chronologically. The idea being that the best stuff floats to the top.

You can change the order to just follow it sequentially, if you want.

[Giggles]

Maybe, if the UI ever changes. My eyes couldn't take it as it is.

[Dquincy]

Glad it's not just me. The post order is just a pain in the arse.

[Offshore Toon]

I don't see how its a problem in that respect. You can collapse conversation chains once you're done with them. Like any new format, it takes a little bit of adjustment, but you sound like iPhone users.

Not an iPhone, but I do mobile browse 95% of the time. Is it less shite on desktop?

[Magic]

Content outweighs any aesthetic issues. It really does have something for everyone. That said, it's very impersonal and that's why I love this place.

[Magic]

Not an iPhone, but I do mobile browse 95% of the time. Is it less shite on desktop?

Get the app.

[Giggles]

Get the app.

I never install apps if there's a mobile browser equivalent unless there's a significant advantage to doing so. Looking at the Reddit one, there's not. Though they don't half like telling you there is.

[Offshore Toon]

I mostly browse on mobile using the app.

[Offshore Toon]

Bumped into Magpie on r/NUFC yesterday. He's alive and well. Small internet.

[Raoul Duke]

Get him to come back over here

[Offshore Toon]

He said he browses TTH a bit but it seemed like he was dying then lost time for it. I gave him a link to this place, but I don't think he's fussed.

[-james-]

I found someone I know on reddit recently. Flicked through their history and all I gained was knowledge of what sort of porn they are into. Not sure what I expected.

[Spikey M]

Magpie never recovered after the failed sequal to D.O.T.S that was D.O.m.S. not only was he ill at ease in Taz's shoes but he was just not willing to do what was needed to earn that capital letter.

[Offshore Toon]

True. There's only so long you can use age as an excuse. It says a lot that both members to take up that role ended up disappearing.

[Spikey M]

It's a shame Lewis thought he was too big for us. D.O.L.S could have been huge.

[Lewis]

I don't recall being invited.

[Spikey M]

Your PA assured me she asked you.

[Disco]

I don't even remember what that was.

[Lewis]

Your PA assured me she asked you.

PA was short for Pards, which might explain it.

[Spikey M]

It was an offshoot of 'Team Idiot' made up of Dquincy, Offshore Toon, Taz and Me AKA D.O.T.S. Heady days. What an age.

[Spikey M]

PA was short for Pards, which might explain it.

I told him D.A.P.S sounded stupid. I should have known.

It's not too late Lew, you could still be our Jason Orange.

[randomlegend]

Can't have been that 'heady' with you involved.

[Lewis]

I told him D.A.P.S sounded stupid. I should have known.

I think the best bet is to resurrect it under the Club Lewis brand.

[Offshore Toon]

It's a shame Lewis thought he was too big for us. D.O.L.S could have been huge.
It all came together as Team Refuge and we donned things until we got bored. Its nowhere near as much fun without Saint.

[Boydy]

Can't have been that 'heady' with you involved.
:D

[Baz]

Magpie was ace. I don't think I had him on my MSN but he was on the one Mike, The Reid and I used when playing FM and we used to talk to him all the time.

Speaking of which, does anyone use Discord?

[Baz]

How do you get comment karma?

Everything seems to go on post karma.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Post comments in other people's threads and hope they vote for it.

Post karma is for threads you make yourself.

[Baz]

Someone gimme some? Need ten, on eight.

[randomlegend]

You'll get banned for vote manipulation if someone reports your post here :p

I threw you an upvote though.

[Baz]

You'll get banned for vote manipulation if someone reports your post here :p

I threw you an upvote though.Thanks.

I'm The commenter by the way.

[randomlegend]

Yeah I guessed since that account had 8 comment karma.

[Baz]

Yeah I guessed since that account had 8 comment karma.Ah. Whys it still on 8?

Reddit be weird.

[randomlegend]

Yeah I'm not sure, might take a while to update?

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Could the auto-mod removal have something to do with it?

[Baz]

Oh yeah. Post a link to something and I'll comment on it and you kind gents can "up" it?

Read the Auto-moderator note in that thread...Thats combined karma, which I have.

[John]

Snide dickery from Baz. I am astonished.

[Disco]

Upvotes don't translate 1:1 into karma, that's why.

[CJay]

I browse Reddit a lot, but I don’t know if I use it to its full potential. I have 4 or 5 subs, and I pretty much just browse my homepage of all the posts together, reading or looking at whatever interests me. I rarely browse my subs individually.

Do other people use it differently? How do you ever find anything if you have loads subreddits?

[Danny]

I dont have a whole lot of subreddits but I go and view them all individually after viewing the front page.

Threw you a few upvotes Baz.

[The Merse]

Got to agree the UI is ugly, the posting order is unintuitive for those that have been forum-ing for a decade or more, and er... Well it's full of Harold's isn't it?

[mugbull]

UI is not too different from 4chan's

[Giggles]

Is Reddit still shit or has something changed?

[Baz]

Is Reddit still shit or has something changed?Honestly it seems like a jumbled mess, but it must be something we’re missing because it’s crazy popular.

I only bumped the thread to try and get 10 “karma” so I can request something. :stamford:

[mugbull]

What makes it a jumbled mess like? If you think of everything you see in a subreddit as a thread, where threads are default sorted by upvotes instead of most recent post, it's really simple

[Baz]

Probsbly because if you consider it that way, there are absolutely millions of sub forums, and it’s a bit overwhelming looking for a “subreddit” I’m interested in reading the threads.

[Giggles]

What makes it a jumbled mess like? If you think of everything you see in a subreddit as a thread, where threads are default sorted by upvotes instead of most recent post, it's really simple

Exactly why it's a mess.

[mugbull]

Okay, but when there's 100 posts a minute there's not really any alternative. You're not meant to "get to know people" on reddit is i think the main difference

[Giggles]

I don't want to get to know anyone, I just like these things in chronological order.

Is it not all just like-whoring because of the way it works anyway?

[mugbull]

It's definitely a huge hivemind and in the bigger subreddits clickbait predominates

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

You can put it in chronological order.

Just click 'New'.

[Disco]

It's just a different format than your traditional forum, having an actual discussion in a thread is terrible especially a popular one. It works best as a place to read (hence the name) but you can have a conversation through your own feed as people reply to your posts.

[phonics]

I also find Reddits just terrible for discussion anyway as the nature of upvotes leads conversations to be 'This is the worst thing ever' or 'No it's the best thing ever'

For any given discussion you can have one supposed expert wade in with their authoritative take (cue loads of upvotes), only for someone else to wade in a little while later to explain that the truth is actually the total opposite of what they said. And then a third person comes in with their credentials to explain it’s really a bit of both. All that makes it hard to value any actual discussion. I do get good lols out of some of the videos on the front page each morning though.

[randomlegend]

Dedicated forums are the best place for discussions on niche topics.

[-james-]

Reddit is the best suffix to most google searches on specialist topics. That or the 4chan archives.

[SvN]

What's our niche? The Dugout?

Desolation.

[Spikey M]

Reddit is proper shit these days. Are there any decent alternatives?

Post regularly on here you little bollocks.

[Giggles]

What's our niche? The Dugout?

A long built dislike of each other.

[Offshore Toon]

Post regularly on here you little bollocks.
I just want stuff to half pay attention to before bed. I don't think my average of two posts a week is terrible anyway.

[igor_balis]

What's our niche? The Dugout?

I think if you asked everyone what they all thought the general vibe/atmosphere of this place was, you'd get vastly divergent answers, but it still just works somehow.

Every other 'web community' I've dipped my toes in has had a proper homogeneous gloop of a userbase, even on broad sites like Reddit. It's probably just a mutual Stockholm syndrome, but I like it.

[Lewis]

The VIBE here is - for serious lack of a better word - intimacy.

[igor_balis]

That's probably the closest we'll ever get to an earnest, #teamsensitive Lewis post. I think you're right tbf.

It probably helps that we're a very web 1.0 middle ground between anonymous random usernames on a subreddit and your FB feed of actual IRL friends and family etc. The fact this place ain't real let's people freely say honest and embarrassing shit, but the fact we all sort of know each other makes it actually mean something. I find it weird that forums like this are such anachronistic relics, cus I reckon they offer something v different to subreddits and FB groups etc.

[Lewis]

It's a matter of time spent and scale. How anyone navigates giant Reddit threads fuck me you might as well be a YouTube commenter.

[Shindig]

I've commented on the same youtube video years apart without realising before. :moop:

[Spikey M]

There's 2 things going on here from my perspective.

1) This place more or less raised me. I come from a shitty town, grew up on a shitty council estate, went to a shitty school, was raised by an alcoholic dad that managed to kill himself and a devoted mum that spent years fighting cancer. This place was a window to another world during my impressionable and depressing teenage years, and it no doubt played apart in stopping me from following alot of my old friends into addiction, crime and prison.

2) from a wider perspective, I fucking hate shouting into a void. What's the point in Reddit and Twitter really? You might have the odd good discussion, but then you go your way separate ways. It's like a nightclub toilet. Occasionally good things happen, but there's a permanent smell of excrement and you'll never actually get to know anyone.

[Lewis]

Thought I was watching Britain's Got Talent for a minute there.

[Spikey M]

3) The immediate corrections for getting above yourself. Sorry lads.

[Pepe]

I just come here so that I don't miss the references in The Group chat.

[Don]

I know the impact I've had on you all, I don't regard you as my children lightly but jesus, don't need to melt all over us in a state of the board thread.

[-james-]

There's no intimacy on here lol. It's still just people shouting their opinions into the void.

[Panda Bear]

There's no intimacy on here lol. It's still just people shouting their opinions into the void.you've either got a personality disorder or deep interpersonal trauma if you genuinely think there's no intimacy between a group of people posting about their interests and their lives on the same forum for over a decade

[Kikó]

This sounds like we're gearing towards a meet. Someone prepare the name tags.

[Manc]

Interested to hear more about Spikeys nightclub toilet adventures.

[-james-]

Perhaps intimacy is the wrong word. It was better ten years ago when most people still posted about their lives. I couldn't tell you a thing about most people on here besides what their job is.

[Jimmy Floyd]

That's adulthood for you. Life is putting the bins out and trying to out-scheme HR.

[niko_cee]

Really? What with all the getting married, buying houses and having kids shit [and foreign business trips natch] I reckon I know a lot more about most people on here than at any point in the past [not just as a function of accumulated knowledge either] but then I have [1] never known all that much about most users on here as I [2] have no contact with anyone via outside means ie THE GROUP, facebook etc. Well, not since the MSN days.

Get a Brighton meet up sorted at Easter and I'll come along. Either that or we'll have to go to Daws' *what's a German Chateau called?* for the Euros in 2024.

[Ian]

People are probably just posting about different bits of their lives and/or are getting more boring as they get older and either have less interesting personal stuff or are just less inclined to share (and why would you?)


Either that or we'll have to go to Daws' *what's a German Chateau called?* for the Euros in 2024.

Die Gruppe Schloss (or something like that.)

[Jimmy Floyd]

I share more personal stuff on here than I do with 90% of the people I know. It's a great outlet for that sort of thing.

[niko_cee]

Die Gruppe Schloss (or something like that.)

I was thinking Castle Von Gruppenstein.

[Offshore Toon]

This place offers semi-decent betting tips.

Otherwise, most threads are pretty terrible these days. It's all ego-fueled debates, 'I told you so' posts and tired jokes. Proper shitshow and beyond saving.

I can imagine it is, as long as you didn't revoke your anonymity fifteen years ago.

[Jimmy Floyd]

Is that a problem? We all have our own boundaries. I don't think any of the 50 odd regulars on here are going to doxx you to the employer you don't have. We haven't even done Magic yet.

[Spikey M]

RL called PaddyPower on him after that Spreadsheet donning.

[Giggles]

There’s a few definitely would. About 50:50 vindictiveness to ‘just for lols’ ratio.

[Baz]

Oof, my best is 4.9k. All hail Baz the new king of the Reddit thread.

There are people out there that would consider you transphobic for not being attracted to this fine lady.

[Lewis]

'Grooming' lol.

[Dark Soldier]

Fair play Lofty, achieving your goals mate.

[Lofty]

:D My mrs showed me one from tik tok who had a designer growler put in, quite surreal having her hold up a close up picture of someone else's vagina and say 'look!'.

[Spikey M]

Lofty has never seen his wife's vagina, pass it on.

[Ameen1190]

Reddit bans account

New bot alert.

[Spikey M]

Banned twice in one day. Poor bloke.

Justice for Ameen, the 1190th of his name.

This might be the greatest series of all time (https://www.reddit.com/u/Vord_Loldemort_7/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf). Someone made a meme for every line of the first Spider-Man movie. Posting one a day, it took 3 years to complete.

You should appeal, it's like the N-word, disabled people are allowed to say it.

[-james-]

I met a moderator of /r/soccer in real life once. He seemed normal up until a woman joined our conversation whereupon he turned into an absolute schizo. Also smelled of damp.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

I'd like to point out before anyone asks, I am not a moderator of /r/soccer.

[Shindig]

The mod probably came back with, "MONG IS OUR WORD!"

[-james-]

Why have they done this? I'll genuinely never use Reddit again now that I can't use a third party app.

[Baz]

You’ll be back.

What’s far more annoying is the amount of subreddits that are protesting it by having a blackout or whatever they’re calling it. So when you google something and, of course, the solution at the top of the results is reddit, you click it only to be told it’s private. Or more accurately, the mods of said subreddit are crying about nothing.

[-james-]

Can't you load the cached version?

99% of my redditing is done on my phone and, aside from the googling you describe, there's simply no way I'm going to use the app or the website. It's definitely a good thing that my access has been revoked tbf.

[Gray Fox]

The higher ups at Reddit have responded to this by sending messages to the mods of each sub that has closed. Essentially says please re-open the sub or the we'll put in our own mod team that will do what we want.

Mods aren't a paid position, it's all voluntary, so they could do it whenever. The mods in certain subs are responding by reopening, but refusing to do anything beyond the letter of the law. For example, there is no rule against posting porn in there, so long as it is labelled as NSFW. Previously they'd delete the porn threads as it's not advertiser friendly, but now they're letting it all go.

It's going to get more messy before it gets better.

[Dark Soldier]

I can still access the Femboy subreddits so awesome

[Baz]

Lots are marking every topic as NSFW so they can’t have ads on. :D

[Boydy]

The official app is the only one I ever used and it was fine until the last update but now it seems to keep suggesting other subreddits for me that I'm not all interested in.

[Pepe]

Lewis mate, what are you doing in Reddit instead of talking to us here?

https://www.reddit.com/r/NoStupidQuestions/comments/15l02xp/why_cant_i_drink_milk_at_social_events/

[Lewis]

I'm slowly charming all the old bags across the base cafes into giving me free cups of it when I mooch with my colleague on their coffee run/Mental Health break.

'How much is a cup of milk?'
'Milk?!'
'Free yeah nice one.'
*give me it because I have a cheeky face*

[randomlegend]

They think you going on a killing spree is inevitable and don't want to make the list.
