Hi there. I’ve never modded a community before, and I’ve only seriously been in to shmups for about a year, so there’s a ton I still have to learn on both subjects. Feel free to use this thread to make suggestions or requests, I’m happy to accommodate them if I can.

Good luck, have fun, and welcome to !shmups@lemmus.org!

    You’re single handedly keeping this community going. I try to post news but we have the same sources and you beat me to it :D

    I don’t know how many people are here but maybe some example post ideas might help? Also if there are a half dozen active visitors and you wanted to foster community interaction, perhaps we could do a caravan?

    Just wondering: is Touhou Project allowed here?

    (I could go to !touhou@lemmy.world and !touhou@ani.social, but it’s all just pictures of the characters I could probably find on Pixiv and/or if I held my nose, Twitter. Zero discussion of the games. I did ask a few discussion questions and people answered and I might try again sometime.)

    If not, I’ll probably still look here from time to time, so don’t worry about running me off with a “no” answer. Props to you for keeping it going single-handedly! I like to help out with communities but I am a lot more limited with topics I have less knowledge of or personal interest in.

        Also, I feel like a newbie to basically every single community I mod. I don’t game nearly as much as I did in my childhood. But since nobody else with more knowledge than me is showing up, asking for mod, I figure I’ll do till we get more users here. I’d happily step down and hand power to someone else, but till then, I can remove spam and post new game announcements as well as anyone else. So don’t worry about being new to the shmup genre! I’m technically not new because I’ve been a Touhou fan since my tweens but I never really stepped out of that series. (Less interested in mech than inexplicably superpowered women in fantasyland, as a woman who’s very much a girly-girl. And yes, I do know not all shmups are mech and spaceships!) Maybe following this community will help me ;)
