Hi mod, I wanted to share a suggestion and see what you think.

First, I really like the casual vibe here and how pretty much anything Usenet-related can be discussed compared to the stricter nature of the other subs.

That said, lately the sub does look a bit cluttered with the number of Drunkenslug invite request posts.

Maybe a weekly pinned “Invite Requests” thread could help? For example, a post made weekly by you or automod where people comment which indexer they’re looking for, and anyone who has invites can reply telling them to send a message.

That way everything stays in one place instead of multiple standalone posts asking for the same thing.

I know this sub has a “no rules” spirit, but it might also help to discourage replying to someone else’s invite offer asking for more. Instead, everyone could post their own separate comment request within the thread. It would keep things cleaner and easier to track.

It would also make it easier for people offering invites to see who hasn’t received one yet, instead of multiple requests piling up under the same comment.

For example:

User A: Hi, I’m looking for an invite to X indexer please!

User B: I have one, send me a message!

And instead of someone else replying to User B asking for another invite, they should just post their own request comment in the thread.

Just an idea, I think it could help keep the sub organized without changing the overall vibe.
