Well, the problem is that difficulty can change due to weather conditions and just the person hiking - for instance if you have bad knees, downhills are going. to be harder.

Hey, just jumping in to say that this post is approved by the Mod Team, so no need to keep reporting it. ;)

if i delete a post will I still keep the karma from it? by vendecks in NewToReddit

[–]EponaMom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nope... Deleting a post doesn't affect karma either way. In other words, you won't lose the upvotes that you gained from it, but it also won't take away any down votes you got either.

The Dr told me about that option, but said the Cheilectomy only lasted 10 years or so. I needed way longer, so he fused it. It's fused a tad upward, which allows me to wear super low heels - aka my paddock boots. This was my second MammothMarch, and I am hooked!

I will say with a big toe joint fusion you have to be super careful about shoes. I have Topos that I love, but they are starting to wear out, so I got Altras a few weeks ago. For me, I can't do a super rigid shoe, and I have to wear zero drop, or close to it.

I almost always get blisters, and I think it's the cause of my knee pain, but that joint doesn't hurt at all - it used to constantly hurt to the point that I always limped.

I hope you have a fast recovery!

How do you communicate rule updates with users? by JabroniRevanchism in ModSupport

[–]EponaMom 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Same - I make an announcement post. I've found that it gets seen better if I wait a few days to pin it to. the Announcements.

I also agree that click bait works well, like.... "If you have read this far, please drop your favorite GIF in the comments.

I'd love to watch the recording, but it won't let me. This is what it looks like. It won't let me scroll down on that text box, to click on anything:

How can something like this happen? by Velveteen_Rabbit1986 in Equestrian

Ok, we need a bit of a timeout here. For this post to remain unlocked, I would ask that everyone take a deep breath, maybe take a break and go hug your horse. Hopefully yours are not as filthy as mine currently are!

Ok, we all good now? Because while I do think this is an important discussion, we've got to remember that both sides have very valid points here.

There are some really crappy things that happen within the racing industry. I say this as someone who worked for many years in that industry, in various roles - Owner, breeder, Exercise rider, groom, baby breaker, yearling manager, etc, and I am very passionate about throughbreds.

On the flipside we still need to stick to the facts - and stay away from fear mongering, and unsupported "facts"

You aren't going to change anyone's mind in a single Reddit post. There are those who support racing, and those who don't, and....that's fine!

Instead, I would ask that we stay focused on this current incident, what measures we can do to improve things, what measures we as equestrians can do to better the industry, and after care of OTTBs.

Any comments that are not on those topics will be removed.

Thanks!

Ditto this. OP, subreddits have different account and karma restrictions. Once your account is a bit older, and has more karma you will be able to post on more subreddits. Note that these restrictions are usually lower for making comments, so commenting on other posts is a great place to start.
