someone on reddit made some secret subreddits for certain acievements:
- controversial club - one of the most controvertial posts on reddit within an hour
- popular club - top 25 posts on reddit of the day
- eternity club - popular club clone
- ternion club - popular club but you also got ternion
etc…
why they exist? who knows, but i guess they are no longer secrets
I can state one secret community that’s been inactive since 2015.
TheTrumanPlan
Every 6 or so months a random redditor was picked and the whole subreddit would set up scenarios to involve the Truman.
One example was when they made a whole subreddit for a band one of them liked. Once they found out the Truman joined, the subreddit was immediately privated.
They then began messing with him by
1: Pretending the sub got sponsored by a Korean ship company
2: make the Truman think there was an song from the band that they all loved but didn’t exist.
3: Fake an AMA with a band member from the band and then have them mention the fake song
4: Have that Korean shipping company post that the AMA was fake and state they are not sponsoring the subreddit anymore.
5: Not noticing that they were slowly fading in Jim Carrey’s face into the sidebar image for weeks and then telling the subreddit he was getting a tattoo of it. They all freaked out when they got told he got the tattoo I think lol.
That was all just from the first Truman I think. There were 7 more after that.
Here are the full megathreads from back then over the first two people picked. https://imgur.com/a/oHmC1NW
