So, /r/hobbydrama is going private indefinitely or something and a lot of people in their community are upset. In yesterday's thread I (and many other users) had the ingenious idea of inviting some of them to this place. In case you are unaware, most of the best posters on this site (if not all of them) are previous /r/HobbyDrama long posters. There's @dont_log_me_out, @ticktocktrain, @loli_esports, me, @kaamrev, and perhaps the most known being @PlsNope. Also, if I had to guess I'd say that at least half of this site regularly reads /r/Hobbydrama's weekly scruffle post which usually contains a bunch of short threads dedicated to certain topics. These stem from niche drama in Otaku culture to discussing whether Abby Shapiro's or Milana Vayntrub's breasts are larger. In both cases, the answer and all arguments are meaningless hevel that stems from those discussions being a nothingburger deluxe but you haven't really lived until you have discussed recent patch changes in Final Fantasy or something and how you're totally going to quit this time.

Hence, it was finally my time to reach out to our distant yet so close brothers and sisters and lead them to the promised golden land of rdrama's effortposters. I tried at least a couple of different approaches and thanks to my unconstrained autism I have somehow managed to at least get them to check out this site. Unfortunately for me (and for this site) the drama community already has a very negative reputation even amongst the longposting neurodivergents of /r/HobbyDrama which made this entire endeavour a lot more strenuous than expected, but see for yourself:

At this point the discussion swapped to different online places they can migrate to. One of these is called lemmy which is a link aggregator for the fediverse. You shouldn't really know what this means unless you spend your free time posting questionable young anime girls but lemmy (like all online discussion platforms) has some issues too. In fact, they quickly dropped the idea after seeing this:

Consequently, rdrama seems like a much better place, r-right? So I got many of them to check out the site ... BUT there was a post calling /r/hobbydrama users neurodivergent on the frontpage that you can not miss and all hope was immediately lost :

Also, they literally got filtered by one of the rules (Absolutely NO anti-CCP sentiment):

@jesus got his own shoutout :

In maybe my favorite screenshot two of them are confused by mundane rdrama lingo:

And to end this discussion, someone told a totally true story about reading hobbydrama at a conveyer belt sushi bar only to get harassed by a troublesome /r/4chan user:

Nevertheless, I don't think we are that different from them. Their weird obsession with the Danish belle @\PlsNope is very similar to ours. Apparently, she was a regular among their weekly scruffle threads and she has (rightfully) gained a couple of followers due to her Chris Hansen post that were shocked at her quick assimilation into the dramaverse. Does this mean she was an undercover agent the entire time or that drama users aren't a hardcore gatekeeping cvlt as we keep to say? Who knows really, it's funny either way:

Anyway, I don't think all hope is lost as some of them have retained the ability to see how good the underlying framework of this site is claiming they could steal the framework and make it their own.

>literally it's hilarious that its both the best and worst site I've seen yet

So in summary I have failed to achieve something although the fundaments for a blossoming friendship between /r/hobbydrama migrants and /r/drama rejects are definitely within tangible reach.
