I thought this might be worth a little bit of discussion at the moment.

We've had a few communities started by existing subs on the other site, some making it clear that it's staking a claim to the same name on here in case they ever decide to move, but that they have no plans to at the moment, and will not be doing any moderating.

I have to be honest, this kinda rubs me the wrong way. It feels like hedging your bets, running one community, not running the other one, but still intending to be in charge if it takes off despite that.

If you'd like to start a community here in the same style as an existing one, that's great, go for it!
Moderate, post great content, grow!

But if you're aiming to put your name on undeveloped land, in the hope that when you come back someone will have built a farm, I'm not sure it's very helpful.

Discussion encouraged!

You can absolutely make a community here. Just try to be an active mod, and make it so we can post to it.

I think you can use your external account to make communities. I've never tried myself.
If not, you could always make an account here ;)
