This forum is dead + Reddit

Post by MiltonKeynes1993 »

This site is rather dead so I’m thinking that maybe posting about this on r/Metallica may be a way to get some traction here. I don’t have a Reddit account however and don’t really care want to go to it after the whole 3rd party dev pricing fiasco so if anyone who is on Reddit wants to post about Meta page on there I think that we could bring some activity here. I know that people over there are kind of tired of the issues with Reddit so with the right wording, they may come here. Additionally, people from there may think that contributing to the renewal of VisiGod's MEGA Metallica video share is worth it, and will contribute. There are some negatives, but I don’t think it would be bad. Let me know what you think, and if you have Reddit and this seems like a good idea, share MetPage.

Could be the way. Admin(s) should decide which way to go. Id love to maintain MegaVidz alive of course.

This forum has always been somewhat dead outside of when the band is touring or new album releases. The downloads is what mainly keeps this place alive.

I like the idea of cross promoting on reddit though.

Honestly a really good idea. Also I'm down to contribute for the VisiGod share.

Any amount you can contribute would be beneficial.

I can post something there. I have promoted Metpage and JITF in any live show discussions I have joined in the past. I can start a topic there if it isn't against any rules.

I don't know if you guys did that reddit thing already (I don't visit reddit)... can't tell if it's good or bad idea. But one thing caught my attention recently regarding reddit - the official forum along the site was down for few days and some people made some pretty negative comments about that over reddit.

I have posted in reddit, hopefully that will help bring more traffic. I will likely post the same in the Metallica bootlegs facebook page as well.

Unfortunately r/metallica removed my post for sharing illegal / pirated media
