What about this for an idea? It's super easy to set up a private subreddit. I could do it in 90 seconds from my phone. And then the moderators of that sub would be able to limit the people who have access. So we come up with a random word here on this site now that is the code word. Without the code, you don't get access. This way you can't have people participating just to fuck around. [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

I like reddit. But I don’t think Reddit is the right place for a UB replacement. You can’t recreate the magic there. It won’t transfer. It’ll get too diluted. You don’t like ‘flyover’ opinions well you ain’t gonna like reddit [ Reply | More
