Well, looks like we are launching a bit earlier than originally planned. This site is fully functional, just a bit limited on some things as we get all the backend worked out. Our CSS is a work-in-progress due to some major differences from how reddit was set up, so that will be coming, it will just look a bit barebones until then.
For the time being we still consider reddit.com/r/kotakuinaction to be our primary site, but will be building this up as a proper backup over time. We actively encourage anyone who wants to coexist on both sites to do so, and have no issue with folks who have finally had enough of reddit's bullshit that decide to make the move here completely now.
Rules are generally going to be the same here as they were on /r/kotakuinaction, but we are thinning them out a bit as some rules no longer need to apply here due to different sitewide rules/TOS from above lifting some restrictions we had to deal with. We will try to get a more complete listing of the newly modified rules up soon, as well as get them listed/linked on the Sidebar and such. Automod is not completely operational here, but will be in the very near future to make that all a bit easier to deal with.
Please be patient with us as we get things in gear. I'll try to keep everyone updated on the progress of things, though some parts will be mostly self-evident as they happen (like the return of the banner/sidebar).
My understanding of it is that communities.win - the broader hosting here - is run by several people who help run TD itself.
A (probably bad) analogy is to think of TD as the first "default subreddit" equivalent here, with us being among the later additions as the site expands over time to new areas. We just happen to have independent domains as front-end access for users, rather than something like /r/kotakuinaction vs /r/the_donald on reddit (there is a way to access each site here like that, but it's not how things display for most people).
Sweet - with TD being in charge then, I'm not too worried about the rules changing too wildly. Thanks for allaying my fears!
