#casualconversation /r/CasualConversation
Can you give us a description of your community: what it’s about, what rules you may have and any resources you would like to include
- We do. I like to change up the colors on our CSS page for different holidays throughout the year. We also have a neat announcement bar that pops up when you scroll down, it normally has a quirky quote on it.
What sets your community apart from others?
- /r/CasualConversation is a subreddit for general chat about almost anything that you can think of. The main rules here are to “respect others” and “Don’t take things too seriously.” Mostly we just want people to have a friendly place to have conversations but we do have a detailed rules page here. Oh we also have a Snoonet rules page.
We have a bunch of resources for our community, our Steam group, Music room, Minecraft server and of course our Snoonet channel.
What inspired this community?
- I was looking through reddit to find a general chat type subreddit but I couldn’t find one. So I thought I would try and make my own and well I guess it worked. Sort of like an “off topic” like what you would see on message boards but for reddit.

What is your community (in)famous for?
