Hi all,

The subreddit is still down (more on that soon) as part of the widespread protests against Reddit's changes. While the official pathofexile forums and the /r/pathofexile discord are still available for questions, guides and community chat, the most common modmail we've gotten during this week has been people asking to see specific threads on the subreddit which contain useful game information. We've been working on a workaround for the community.

How to use it

Here's an example. You're on Google searching for "poe how to sustain maps", the first result will be this link, which shows the subreddit private page https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/x4ot0f/how_the_heck_are_people_managing_to_sustain_maps/

Now, you can take any link like that, and add poe before reddit.com, and see the submission and comments, for example: https://www.poereddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/x4ot0f/how_the_heck_are_people_managing_to_sustain_maps/

Caveats:

• The amount of comments/submissions in the PoE sub is huge, so we are only able to store text. Links to videos and images work, but a native reddit video for example would not.
• Data is only present up through March 31st, 2023. Data beyond that is significantly harder to bulk submit, but we're working on it.
• If a user has opted out of data collection on reddit via pushshift, their comments/submissions are not present. All user information was stripped out of this mirror though
• This index includes deleted posts, so if you're browsing the index page of the site, you'll see posts that say deleted. That's because they are.
• Comments are unsorted, you may need to scroll down on the page to view comments with interesting replies

How is this accomplished:

We downloaded all the comments and the submissions from Pushshift, an open copy of reddit's content, and put them into a database using a tool called Redarc

TLDR: When you find a reddit.com/r/pathofexile/foo link, change it to poereddit.com/r/pathofexile/foo to see the posts and comments

Hopefully this is useful to people, we've been sending it as a reply to modmails asking to see subreddit threads

Wishing ya'll a good weekend, Multi

Reddit: If a moderator team unanimously decides to stop moderating, we will invite new, active moderators to keep these spaces open and accessible to users. If there is no consensus, but at least one mod wants to keep the community going, we will respect their decisions and remove those who no longer want to moderate from the mod team.

Based on this, it's very possible that the Path of Exile subreddit will end up being assigned to some other group of people than the current set

This might be due to statements from advertisers that they would stop paying for reddit ads if the blackout lasted longer

https://www.adweek.com/social-marketing/ripples-through-reddit-as-advertisers-weather-moderators-strike/

Campaigns have notched slightly lower impression delivery and consequently, slightly higher CPMs, over the days of the blackout, Johnson said. If the performance weakness continues for a week or two, the agency would start recommending decreasing spend with Reddit or directing it to other platforms.

I don't know what this means right now for the community. Not everyone has had a chance to respond in the mod team yet, but so far, it looks to be strongly in favor of not opening the subreddit as a result of reddit saying this. The general consensus is that Reddit won't be able to / won't actually choose to replace many thousands of mods.

Hi ya'll,

There are a lot of useful guides for players on the subreddit, which is currently down. If you are in desperate need of one of those guides, take the link to it (or search the name on google) and paste it into https://archive.org/web/ , the most popular guides should be there.

If not, then this would be a good time to provide feedback to reddit.com that their changes will kill the site. Complain. Message the mods of /r/reddit.com, who are the admins of the site: message /u/reddit : submit a support request: leave a negative review on their official iOS or Android app.

Questions Thread

This is a general question thread

Remember to check the community wiki first.

You can also ask questions in any of the questions channels under the "help" category in our official Discord.

The idea is for anyone to be able to ask anything related to PoE:

• New player questions
• Mechanics

• League related questions
• Trading
• Endgame
• Price checks
• Etc.

No question is too big or too small!

We encourage experienced players to sort this thread by new.

To people who answer questions: You guys are the best! Keep making the community great!

Hi Ya'll,

MultiplicityPOE here, I help run the POE Discord and POE subreddit

With reddit.com/r/pathofexile and other subreddits going dark due to Reddit's API Changes, it made sense to me to have an alternative platform to post on, possibly just during this window, but maybe beyond, who knows

To see a read only copy of the Poe subreddit check here: https://pathofexile-discuss.com/post/2061

As for rules, just be kind and generally talk about PoE. There's a separate board here for discussing reddit stuff

Hope ya'll enjoy it!

-- Multiplicity

PS: If the site is broken in any way, feel free to contact me on the PoE Discord server, by opening a modmail or DMing me directly from the server
