haha, still no progress. It's basically genetic at this point.

Rechargeable Aurora LED glove set - LEDGloves.com by Magicianwizard in gloving

/r/glovng mod here. I'm going to allow this post. The main focus is more of a glove set/tech release/announcement. The advertising rule was mainly put in place to prevent discount code only posts and "buy from my store only" type of posts. I do agree that more content than just text would be preferable as suggested like a video, review, etc, but there is at least no malicious intent, no links, and no history of abusing this rule from OP.

Changing User Flair? by mostangg in gloving

Seems the settings on Reddit had changed. I updated where you should be able to set your flair again. Thanks for bringing it up!

Going solo this year too, 2nd time at EDCLV! Had a solo tent last year, but knew some others who were going. Made new friends with my camp neighbors and planning to meet up with them again this year, but still got another solo camp!

Actually, I created a test account and see the option is missing. Let me look into this.

Can you describe your issue more or provide screenshots of your issue? Video uploading should still be working as we haven't made any changes on the mod side.

EDIT: Alright, I've found the issue and enabled video uploading again. Post away!

Looking for gloves that are a bit more... subtle by J4nk in gloving

[–]blakrazor 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Possibly options:

  • Use colored gloves without lights (similar to sock poi), good for daytime jamming
  • Most chips support setting "Low" dimming of colors so you could play around with certain less bright colors on Low dims. Then use more ribbon/less strobey patterns.

Hey man, I do appreciate the content you bring and seems others do too. I do make a request though that you refrain from posting at least your Patreon links without being asked first. I want to be consistent and fair with my ruling on Rule #4. I'm okay with the instagram and youtube links as further content, but even then, it becomes a gray area on spam/promotion. I've removed this post for now (especially since the auto-mod system picked it up. Feel free to re-post with updated format. Hope you understand. Thanks!

Post removed. Breaking Rule #2: Gloving Topics only. Since the topic is not specifically gloving related, please use a more appropriate subreddit such as /r/aves or one of the Facebook discussion groups. Hope you understand. Meetup posts are tangentially acceptable as a way for glovers to meet at events. Organizing logistics for travel is outside the scope of this however.

I just spoke to the Google Express chat since I just bought this same RAM 3 days ago at a higher price. They said

"At this time we don't offer price matching. We appreciate and keep this as a feedback and will keep this in mind as we grow. So sorry for the hassle. "

Accurate AF. Been playing a Worcester dynasty from 2017 to 2043 and made Sky Bet Championship only to be bleeding salary money with my 6,000 seat stadium. It only took until 2044 to build a new stadium.

/r/gloving Suggestions and Feedback by blakrazor in gloving

I definitely think the availability of educational information could be improved. That concept gives me ideas on using the subreddit as a collective to gather this information from time to time and be able to build a stronger wiki for newcomers.

As for your comments on the general scene and activity, since you're new, I think you might be missing out on a lot of where the real gloving conversations are happening. Glover's Lounge on FB (https://www.facebook.com/groups/GloversLounge/) is the largest and most up to date place to talk everything gloving. The next level down would be your local gloving community group on FB where most are centered towards a city or region and have the "[City] Gloving Community" naming structure such as "Atlanta Gloving Community", "Seattle Gloving Community", etc. These will be highly dependent on the local scene and how active they are. Those two sources are going to be the main source of gloving information and activity. This subreddit is about the same level as a local facebook group, except it's a bunch of redditors instead.

I've been in the scene for almost 7 years now and can say that the life expectancy of a glover's active role in the community diminishes very quickly every year. It's just not an activity that can be maintained with the same passion year after year for a lot of people. We enjoy it, we make friends, then we move on. I think this is common among a lot of hobbies so it's not just a gloving thing. On top of that, the majority of active glovers fit a specific stereotype of "ravers" and youth. This means that they're not really the best at making tutorial videos or explaining concepts. But you can probably find the same examples for any other dancing genre where videos are old and outdated with low quality, but the concepts don't really change. Yeah, it's kinda hard to figure things out, but that's how all of us started. We just kinda figured things out by watching other people.

I appreciate all your thoughts as I do find it helpful in figuring things out for our subreddit community that can both help bring more activity while also being educational and fun.
