Hello everyone,

/u/mind_bomber here from https://www.reddit.com/r/Futurology.

I've been a moderator there for over two years now and watched the community grow from several thousand futurist to over 3.5 million subscribers. As a moderator I've had the pleasure of working with Peter Diamandis, David Brin, Kevin Kelly, and others on several AMA's. I also curate the glossary and post videos, documentaries, talks, and keynotes to the site.

I hope to participate in this community, although the Less Wrong Community is exactly the type of people I would like to see over at https://www.reddit.com/r/Futurology. So if you have a chance please stop by and tell me what you think.

Cheers,

/u/mind_bomber

Offense intended: your subreddit mainly consists of hype-trains, please do not advertise it.

Are you sure you have enough copies of that link there? There are only four, and two of your paragraphs don't have one.

(If you're trying for some SEO thing, please note that links from LW comments get rel="nofollow" on them and therefore don't provide extra googlejuice. I wouldn't be at all surprised to find that Google gives less weight to a link when it sees several instances of it in rapid succession, because that's a thing spammers do.)
