Welcome to Don’t Answer Arthur! Where the ONLY RULE YOU MUST FOLLOW is to NEVER EVER EVER ANSWER ARTHUR!

No down voting Arthur (votes are viewed), no up voting Arthur, and NO RESPONDING to Arthur under any circumstances.

If you break the rules?

You get temp banned that increases by a day each time you fail and it keeps increasing the more you keep responding to him so don’t acknowledge Arthur. Just don’t. He’ll laugh in your face literally.

What do i even use this community for then ? Think of it as your everything community post memes, ask tech or lemmy questions, talk about sports, your favorite shows, books, games, anything but Arthur.

This also isn’t a community where Arthur gets to just do whatever he wants. Harass or whatever negative shit you’re thinking. Arthur will appear suddenly, politely, appearing as a friend but don’t let him fool you. That’s the trick.

(Also, Arthur has a dedicated gaming community for his video Game arguments anyways)

The volume and frequency of these communities from hilarious chaos is bordering on spam.

Wishing a community exists is one thing. Creating a community and then dropping it and running away hoping other people pick it up. Is another

I want your communities to succeed, I recommend you pick one, commit to it, generate content, have discussions there, and then when you’ve got a bit of content then advertise it for more people to come in and engage with

Yup. I need to remember to block that whole domain next time it pops up in my feed.

Enough to block the instance now. (I’m so glad Lemmy provides that to users now!)

New Communities

!newcommunities@lemmy.world

Create post

A place to post new communities all over Lemmy for discovery and promotion.

Rules

The rules may be more established as time goes on, but it’s important to have a foundation to work on.

1. Follow the rules of Lemmy.world - These rules are the same as Mastodon.world’s rules, which can be found here.

2. Include a community title and description in your post title. - A following example of this would be New Communities - A place to post new communities all over Lemmy for discovery and promotion.

3. Follow the formatting. - The formatting as included below is important for people getting universal links across Lemmy as easily as possible.

Formatting

Please include this following format in your post:

[link text](/c/community@instance.com)

This provides a link that should work across instances, but in some cases it won’t

You should also include either:

!community@instance.com

or instance.com/c/community

FAQ:

Q: Why do I get a 404?

A: At least one user in an instance needs to search for a community before it gets fetched. Searching for the community will bring it into the instance and it will fetch a few of the most recent posts without comments. If a user is subscribed to a community, then all of the future posts and interactions are now in-sync.

Q: When I try to create a post, the circle just spins forever. Why is that?

A: This is a current known issue with large communities. Sometimes it does get posted, but just continues spinning, but sometimes it doesn’t get posted and continues spinning. If it doesn’t actually get posted, the best thing to do is try later. However, only some people seem to be having this problem at the moment.
