"Get excited! Whatever the discussion topic is, make yourself sound really really enthused! Unsettlingly pumped! Chomping at the bit with turgid desire!"
It's a safe bet that most of us have encountered the age-old admonition to "never judge a book by its cover" at some point in our lives. There is a deep wisdom in that advice---wisdom that seems to go completely out the window as soon as a certain type of person spots a certain type of punctuation.
Thanks for the help, you ppl here are really welcoming!
I read some things about the technical side already, which is quite interesting and makes me wonder how I managed to miss all of this until now.
I also think it will (unfortunately) scare many people away who don't care about how it works.
Some practical help would indeed be great! E.g. how do I get content from #kbin to show up here without every post being unconnected to the respective thread
