The community is pretty awful, and content is really hard to promote on the bigger pages such as ""Gaming" or "Funny" with around 5,000,000 followers. Reddit is good for niche subreddits dedicated to individual topics. i for one check out /r/nintendo and /r/3DS to find out nintendo related news. /r/WiiU sucks though. I was recently voted 5 for 30 against for criticising a recent news post from nintendoStory is there was a group of guys called Mega 64 that were asked to promote the Smash Brothers event for nintendo that is coming up. Players can go to best buy and play smash brothers during E3. my criticism was that the video was pointless and only needed 30 seconds to tell me the news I needed, but it dragged on for 5 minutes. They didn't like criticism so used the downvote function to hide my comments. Free speech, ya'll
