bums me out that many might have missed the (tiny?) window when this link was kicking around before r/melb got locked up and not even know this place exists. i feel like the reddit thing might fizzle out and we all end up back there, but who knows

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I mean I’m ok with this place being temporary and we all head back when it re-opens or stay idk 🤷‍♀️

But yeah seriously odd that they mentioned midnight and 4pm you couldn’t post anymore. Lucky I saw someone’s comment with the link and had 30 mins to an hour until they closed shop (11-11:30pm)

I rather people know this here exist so they don’t feel out of sorts. I would miss everyone too much if I was away for too long. I struggled with 2 days

i wanted to post SKY PRETTY but couldn't

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Omg that’s what I wrote as well and went to click post but nothing happened. Tried it 3 different time with several minutes given between pressing post and nada lol we both thought to post the same thing

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Same for me! I didn't check the thread until 11pm. Or I'd have missed the whole thing.

Looks like we were lucky

It is listed on the r/melbournereborn pinned post, so the link is still out there but yeah, you have to go hunting for it

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

the r/melbourne message only links to the discord though so people might not be able to find the reborn sub

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Is there anyone who used the Melbourne discord and has linked this place as a just in case?

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

i could try posting the link there but there are SO many messages i day i doubt anyone would see it. I don't recognize the user names there either

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I believe you can pin a post but it's not the easiest to find even if it's pinned which sort of defies the purpose. Is Juggernaut one of us?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I have no idea. It might be awkward for me to pin a post there too since I don’t participate.

I just hope melbabouttown is OK. I felt that she may have really needed the dt to keep in touch with humans.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oh yeah. I think others have messaged her? Anyway I just did.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I tried but there was no chat function. I don't know. I just hope she finds us.

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

Chat function is unreliable. New chat doesn't show up on the reddit app. I expanded the her profile to reach the message button.

I feel like we're on the titanic lifeboat paddling around for survivors

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago
