MODERATORS
We're the generation that used forums all over the internet, Digg, and then reddit before it was cool. Now that reddit is going nuclear, we're all looking for our new home because we yearn for the internet we all grew up with as it slowly erodes away thanks to millionaires/billionaires ruining all that is good to make a buck.
Hell, we used forums even before the Internet (BBS' anyone)?
Every once in a long while I even miss CompuServe.
I mostly enjoyed the new take on a forum concept because the way it organized replies on new topics and because of the massive community. Videos, pics, and memes were okay, but it's the community comments that I mostly found valuable.
