The Slowest Roll Out Ever: The BuffScan Subreddit

01/01/2024

Quite some time ago I posted some dramatic BuffScan content to r/Buffalo/ on Reddit. Because I had done so more than a few times, another Reddit user suggested creating a new subreddit to host that sort of content.

That actually seemed like a good idea - no offense was taken since I sort of view /r/Buffalo to be like a free-form "Good Morning America" for Buffalo to some degree -- not a place where people necessarily seek direct contact with the sort of drama I sometimes post. So I did it.

Behold /r/BuffScan/.

But that was actually about two years ago and although I had gone through with the basic creation of the group, I didn't develop or advertise it much.

Now with some holiday time off, I finally did and am -- at least to the extent that I wrote out a group description and some pretty basic rules.

I encourage anyone who has collected content to make at least a secondary post in the subreddit outside their primary platform of choice. I myself will post some legacy stuff in addition to moving forward, just to prime the machine. As well, I'll post public links to content that others make available online of the same genre.

I am not sure this new subreddit is really needed in the grand scheme of things in the first place, but down the road, if it seems necessary, I'd like to accept candidates to administer the group. Those who are already in the habit of collecting ground coverage seem like a good potential resource for that.
