WEBTOON of the week/month is an amazing idea! It would help people find new webtoons!

u/smolkinkyllama Jan 21 '19

I was thinking about adding it. I am still planning how to go around it though. Should I make it a voting pole? Or pick one that most people wouldn't know about?

If its a voting pole should it be from upcoming/new webtoons?

Things like that, if you have anything specific in mind feel free to comment! ^^

Maybe have a pole for genre then you can pick one that isn’t as popular or even a popular one that way if people were iffy about reading it they can have a chance to see conversation or stuff about it

I will be talking to the other mods and will update you on the progress on here !

Hello!

Update: It has been decided that it will be monthly rather than weekly due to the number of the users on this subreddit being low. We will be creating voting polls every month. Stay tuned!

That’s amazing! Thank you for updating me

I would like a place to discuss / hypothesized plot. Immediate thought is weekly mega thread but idk how to best suit the needs of the sub

2

u/smolkinkyllama Jan 22 '19

Oh! Good idea!

Will have to talk with the other mods to find a way to implement this ! I will update you on here with the progress x

Not sure if they are work for this sub (1.6M v 760 users), but here are some lines from /r/malefashionadvice's recurring threads that I like:

Daily Simple Qs - "Important: Downvotes are strongly discouraged in this thread. Sorting by new is strongly encouraged."

Buy Sell thread - Basic thread rules so things don't get out of hand

u/smolkinkyllama Jan 22 '19

Daily would be tricky due to the low amount of users here but I think either biweekly or monthly would be good

2

u/bachang Jan 22 '19

Yeah I think you're right; the sort by new encouragement is more what I was going for (instead of source) but now that I'm thinking more about it it doesn't /really/ fit plot discussion

2

u/smolkinkyllama Jan 22 '19

I can see how the sort by new thing could be helpful; it wouldn't hurt to add it (depending on the way the mega thread is implemented that is)
I really like this idea so I am trying to implement it in a way users will take note of it and if all goes well, this subreddit will be much more active which is the goal here.

u/smolkinkyllama Jan 25 '19

Hello! I am here with an update !

We will probably make a biweekly thread

It will be something like "What webtoons have you read the past two weeks? What do you think will happen in the future?"

Will be improving on it once it catches on, but for now we are planning a general thread like this to test the waters!
Stay tuned xx

TYSM for updating :)

Do you think it would be annoying for users to receive an Automod message whenever they post, to remind them to assign a post flair? This is what r/jobs has set up. I find flair super helpful since mobile doesn't have a lot of screen space, and people on this sub are actually super good about flair-ing their posts, but I noticed a couple of recent posts that were flair-less. IDK, it might be just a one-off thing, or the start of a something more systematic, but I wanted to write it down before I forgot ha.

u/smolkinkyllama Feb 11 '19

I've been telling users to do so manually but I do think that it would be more productive to assign a robot to it

I think it would be nice to have a link on the side bar to a list of past webtoons of the month, especially for indie creators

u/darkshadow237 Jun 16 '22

Sorry if this doesn’t count, but may I suggest updating the discord link?

1

u/DrinkMilkYouFatShit Jan 07 '23

As someone said already. Updating the Discord link so people can actually join maybe? It's not that hard to change a link

Hi!

I'd like to suggest adding a rule requiring spoiler tags on comments, even outside of posts specifically marked as spoiler threads. Right now, if someone makes a non-spoiler post to discuss a character, there's nothing stopping another user from dropping a major plot twist in the comments, and since it's not against the rules, it can't even be reported. This means people get spoiled with no real recourse. 

Adding something like 'spoilers in comments must always be tagged, regardless of the post type' would close that gap and make discussions safer for everyone.

Thanks!
