Aussie Zone has had communities for Environment, Politics and News for a while now, and while this is a general Australian community I would like to encourage people to post relevant content to those communities instead of this one. This will encourage the growth of those communities alongside this one.
The communities I’m talking about are: [email protected], [email protected] and [email protected]. If you’re not an Aussie Zone member, it’s recommended to subscribe to these three communities to get the main “Australia” community. These communities are run under Aussie Zone rules so there should be no discrepancies in moderation.
In the future I may bring in another bot to cross-post top posts from those communities onto this one as locked posts pointing to the relevant community, however that will be separate from @[email protected] so you can block those messages. Otherwise on the aussie.zone front page everything should be easily visible.
Please feel free to leave any feedback here.
FAQ
- What constitutes “news”?
- News posts are links to news articles that are neither opinion nor discussion pieces.
- Will this be enforced?
- There will be no bans issued solely over this. Posts in the wrong place will just get a reminder to post in the correct community and locked if no-one has started a discussion under it.
I get what you mean now. I was confused about your comment of ‘splitting off’ in the other thread. It kinda sounded like you were suggesting that [email protected] be split into more communities but - correct me if I’m wrong - you’re just asking everyone to balance posting between the three existing communities and helping everyone out by clearly defining them. Cheers.
Yes that’s exactly right
