Since i cant post new links/text posts (account not in good standing? What does that mean? How did it get that way? How do i fix it?), I'll toss it in here, Just wanted to suggest something that should enhance the community feeling, sitewide integrated live chat! Should be thinking of things that set us apart from reddit other than the lack of scumbag admins selling out everything they can to corporate slime...

The sitewide live chat sounds fantastic. We would have to use a third party solution for that, but if you happen to know any other site that offers similar chat, do let me know :)

Well, why reinvent the wheel when there is so much to do? IRC does chat right, is integratable through various tools, directly to freenode through their interface,
https://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=channel_name

or there is always mibbit, plus, using a well maintained public irc network such as freenode (will have to look into if this is ok, but experience suggests its fine) means very little additional load on your side, redilly available management tools and protections from floods and attacks, etc, and would allow mods and users to connect with a pure irc client for a more robust experience.

When did you last try to post a new link or self post? The "account not in good standing" is now replaced with a captcha, so you should be able to post just fine :)

Haha, that's actually a good one! Made me laugh :) Perhaps I'll use this instead of upvote :)

Excellent way to advertise! Just out of curiosity, have we decided on a name for the mascot?

The only thing that comes to mind is universe/space-related stuff... Maybe, Nova?

That's a great way to attract new users.

Another way to help is to go to http://whoaverse.com/new and vote!

Please, print out the whoaverse mascot and write domain name under it and post it wherever you can (but please do not litter). Student libraries, wherever. I would love to see you take a photo of the flyer and post it here :) We might be making history :p

I don't think history will happen since it looks like a Reddit knockoff..

This is to prevent bots from spamming out of the gate. You have to obtain a certain amount of points (or whatever we're calling it), I believe, before it allows you to post freely.
