Created New Subreddit (2 Viewers)

6 months ago it was put in lockdown, you can't post anything. I don't know the exact reason, maybe Covid? I can't really be %100 sure why. Was a big fan of the subreddit so wanted to get a new one started. Heres a link incase the imbed doesnt work (www.reddit.com/r/chipp0rn/)
 
Have you started subreddits before? Too successfully get them off the ground you need to seed them with content (2 pages min). If you start pushing people there now they will see your one and only post and then never visit again. There needs to be a lot there before you start pushing people there. Seed with two pages of awesome photos and get a couple buddies to engage in some discussion on the posts. Then start posting some killer content and cross-post that with /r/poker and keep mentioning the new subreddit elsewhere in /r/poker (/r/poker is loving chip pron posts these days) over the course of a couple months. If you don’t do these things you will never generate a critical mass of engagement and it will not self sustain.

I don't have enough posts to make two pages worth of content, wish I did though. Just really missed chipporn and saw a need for it. If you want to post, post then it would very much appreciate. This isn't life or death, just having some fun.

You can petition to take over an existing subreddit. I have successfully done so myself. If someone abandoned /r/chipporn you should contact the mod and see if they are willing to hand it over. If not or if they don’t respond you should follow the official channel to take it over. Hell of a lot easier to do that then successfully launch a subreddit.

Will definitely look into it, thanks.
 
who did you sell the WTHC fracs to? lol
I am on my third set of WTHC fracs. I had the original white hotstamped ones from my reddit post but we play weekly in dim light so hotstamps are hard to see and wear off quick. I sold those. I then used Avalon $10 chips which are the same exact base chip milled them and used Gesr labels. Now I am using yellow Avalon $1ks with Gear labels.

I’ve always been surprised at the lack of good chip and table porn on r/poker.

I mean 90% of the tables Built by the members there could go in the fugly table thread.

I don't mind a good table, but its gotta be one nice ass table
 
I did post in the old r/chipporn today as well. I only have access to crappy german casino chips though. I mean come on:

I was referring to the motion blur. I might be overly critic because i am a wedding photographer and I am sorry. Just wanted to get to enjoy the chippr0n with a crisp image. ;)
