Shower thought: much (most?) of the crypto community exists on Reddit. I think we're doing NOTE a massive disservice by presenting a dead wasteland subreddit. I motion that we get stuck into one of our best promotional tools going over there. Anyone visiting http://www.reddit.com/r/dnotes will assume the coin is loooooong since dead. In fact, one of the best things we could do would be to move our principal conversation from here to there.

The problem with bitcointalk is that it's hard to stumble across things. Reddit conversely is designed for that sort of thing.

If we started some threads, interest would build.

When I look for a coin to invest in, if I see the subreddit is dead I will turn around and never look back. We absolute cannot afford to have a tumbleweed presence on there. It's far worse than no advertising at all.

Every coin I've ever invested in, ever, I've discovered and got excited about through reddit. NOTE was a complete anomaly. 99% of people who might very well be our champions simply don't even know we exist.

We need to jumpstart our reddit presence. I already made a thread. Will you join me?

You may be onto something Mochilles. I am not an avid reddit user. We didn't get much support on reddit, and I thought it may be more effective to reach the reddit community through posting at
http://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/
rather than trying to bring our community to reddit in our own subreddit.
How do people find our sub-reddit?
How do we promote it to get more involvement?
Are the related subreddits helpful or should they be removed?

I agree. Mochilles is absolutly correct. We have missed out on a very valuable medium to reach out to our industry. I strongly encourage our community to support this efforts. However, I have to add that DNotes Bitcointalk forum is invaluable. We have won over a lot of supporters on account of that. Furthermore, what DNotes has accomplished is historic; creating a productive culture in a chaotic and destructive environment where trust and respect has be lacking.

I have been building a solid network and have been actively in communication with many people in our industry everyday. The compliments and respect I have been getting is simply amazing, frankly humbling. DNotes is beginning to be recognized as the rising star in our industry. A lot of great things will start happening in the not so distance future. I like to see that we are solidly positioned before pursuing a rapid growth path, starting next year. Again reddit presence is very important. Please do your best to participate.

I will work on upgrading the DNotes subreddit. Please let me know if you have any suggestions.

Please keep in mind, a Google search on "DNotes" lists the website first and this forum second. Reddit is at the bottom of the page. I thought this was interesting so I have been asking around both at work and and is social settings. So far, I'm one of three people who have heard of Reddit and only two of us know what it is, none of us use it. That's out of about 25 people. On the other hand, twelve had heard of Bitcoin talk and eight have checked it out, five claim to use it.

Please don't base any decisions on this data, it's simply an observation. Personally, I don't like the way Reddit flows and I won't be hanging out there very much but, I do agree we should have a presence there, and everywhere else people communicate in a public forum.
.

Excellent conclusion and recommendations. Maintaining a presence on Reddit will be helpful if a meaningful number of DNotes supporters are interested to help support it.

DNotes Bitcointalk forum is like a book we have all co-authored. If all other forums are also characterized as books; DNotes will be the best seller among 500 others. We all are proud to be the co-authors.
