@Mark_Kriegsman thank you !!!

@Sheena_Variasi may be http://vpngate.net would help you? :slight_smile:

@Mark_Kriegsman @Daniel_Garcia I just tried to reply to a few posts in a row on reddit, and it told me on the 3rd reply “you have to wait 7mn before you can comment again”.
OMG. Is there a way to turn that off or get around it?
In 7mn I’ll be gone for work and probably won’t remember to reply :frowning:

@Marc_MERLIN Good question. I’ll take a look and see if we can adjust it. Thanks for jumping in over there, and bearing with us as we all figure out the new system!

@Marc_MERLIN It looks like the time limits go away as you build up ‘karma’ in the FastLED subreddit. I just went through and upvoted a couple of your comments to help with that.
It’s a good reminder that we should all upvote each other’s comments and posts, to keep the reddit karma flowing. Thanks for pointing out the issue.

@Marc_MERLIN I just added you as an “Approved submitter” for the reddit group which I believe will remove that time limit.

@Mark_Kriegsman @marmil thank you both for the quick reply. Yeah, I guess it’s a sad fact that many/most online boards have to worry about comment spammers.

fix confirmed to work, I was able to reply to other posts, thanks much

It might be good to update the link for “community” on the main http://fastled.io website to point to reddit

one of the long list of things that i’m behind on getting done related to the move :slight_smile:

I have received a request to add this community to the list of communities I am porting to http://forum.makerforums.info — by doing that, people continue to own their own content, and it is not lost to history. It’s also part of a larger and focused maker community.

Please let me know if there is any reason not to do this!
http://forum.makerforums.info

Yes, that would be great, thank you

Ok I’ll plan that! Thanks!

Please also feel free to let me know additional maker-related communities to port. :slight_smile:

Michael, this is so cool to see all these G+ posts here at forum.makerforums.info!
Thank you!

Could you make this post sticky/pinned too?

My forum account here didn’t get associated with my posts/comments in the FastLED G+ import. I did associate my Discourse account with my Google account before the import, though I had not used the Goog OAuth login before then.

Is there a way for me to merge my account with the dummy one that was created?

Record requests for account merges here for me please-and-thank-you. :slight_smile:
