It's been a running joke since pretty much my 1st post in this comm, that somebody will find a way to explain how my comic post is political. Despite me making it pretty obvious in the sidebar that I'm referring to a very specific flavor of politics.

I've been rolling with them, since I find them more eye-rolling amusing than annoying. However it seems that others might be getting annoyed with them, which I can understand.

IF YOU ARE A PART OF THIS COMMUNITY, chime in with your opinion here. Should we continue to allow free for all comments, or subject them to the same restrictions on (particular) politics as the posts?

If you are already against the point of this community for whatever reason, please refrain from joining in the discussion.

Update: Based on the feedback and the amount of upvotes in the comments, it seems clear there's a general consensus in favour of keeping the comments clear of politics as well. I'm somewhat busy at the moment but will get to updating the sidebar when I can. In the meantime, I'll begin removing comments that break the rule, though I won't be issuing any bans.

I need help! Volunteers needed. (media.piefed.social)

Hey folks! NPCs has blown up since it got started just 3 days ago. There's obviously a large desire for the sort of content I've been posting, and people are loving it. (Discussions about what constitutes politics notwithstanding).

I've got a problem, however! And it's one I hope you can help me with. It takes a lot of time and effort to be the main content supplier for the comm, and it's not sustainable for me. So, I'm asking for volunteers to help out with just 2-3 minutes of your time daily.

What I have in mind: A group of people (ideally, about 20 or so) who can commit 2-3 minutes daily to finding a comic they like and share it to the community.

That's it! Just read a comic or two, find one that suits this community, and post it here for us to enjoy. I'm not asking for mods at the moment, so don't worry about that.

FAQ:

  • What if I can't do it every day, or miss a day? I'm not going to hold you to it! We'll do this on a best effort basis, if you can't make it nobody's going to criticise you for it. Even 1 post a week is appreciated.
  • Can I post more than one? Sure! But consistency is more important than quantity.
  • What constitutes 'politics'?
    Sigh. We'll probably work out a formal definition at some point, but for now you probably have a good idea of my definition just from browsing the comm.

If you'd like to help out, just comment below!

We’re back from holiday! Germany was great. Our favourite city was probably Hamburg because a) Miniatur Wunderland, b) Planten un Blomen and c) Hamburg DOM (we rode the big ferris wheel and there were fireworks! :D)

German tv was also funny because they have a lot of dubbed english shows. I had a great night lying in bed watching dubbed Gilmore Girls.

The people we met were all really friendly and nice, we had an awesome time. Thanks Germany!
