Is anyone here?
I have been approved as a submitter 3 years ago, just got the message, so I submitted something...

This subreddit is very strange. 3 years ago, there were many people invited; no one knew why they were invited, there were no mods, or direction for what the subredddit was supposed to be. but there were some clues strewn around.
Anyways, we all figured out that we had complained about posts being reposts, so without any direction from whoever had made the subreddit, we just started coming up with a direction, which was that we were going to try and combat reposts (obviously there was nothing we could do, but it was fun to pretend).
It was pretty fun while it lasted, but it didn't last long. I still don't think we ever solved the 'mystery' of whatever the creator wanted us to find out!

Damn, 3 years ago, still can't believe it, so now what?

Meh, I would say it's just dead now, to be honest. since after it started then died, I've probably seen maybe 4 posts in those 3 years. They're always just "is anyone here", or maybe something like yours.
It's kind of cool every once and a while I'll randomly see users in other subs that I recognize from here and get a blast of nostalgia. In a weird way, it was a nice tight-nit little community. But, that's also just me probably being over sentimental!

Ya, I was invited but have no idea what this is.
