I'm trying not to suck up too much Reddit but IAF content is hard to source without a large community. It's the diamonds in the rough that make IAF special. Should I dig into the archives once every couple days when it's dry to keep the content rolling or let it be?

One person's repost is another person's first time. Don't let flamers get to ya.

Thanks for the kind words.

Yeah when I got here, there was nothing here. I figured it we didn't put stuff here, it would never happen. The Reddit group is stuffed with reposts, so I'm not afraid to put more in. (hell it's not even my community)

In the main subs people are bringing up the point that we have a lot of links and little discussion. I think that's something that comes from scale and it won't truly get better until we have the numbers of eyeballs to make it so. That said, I think it's not without merit and just posting endless posts without discourse is probably not sustainable in the end.

Waiting to hear what more people think, my inclination is to pull interesting new and old popular at the rate of at least a couple a day to help keep the community in fresh content while things are slow. I have a couple of other subs that are mine and I'm taking the same kind of temperature there to see how people feel. I figure if I want to stay out of Reddit, I need to help build this place up to make it interesting.
