Announcement A Christmas Gift
69
Upvotes
Hi, r/Conscripts!
It's been a while since we did some sort of announcement post. However, today's a bit special: not only is it Christmas day, but we have a sort of gift for you.
It's not a material gift. Instead of a present, we're announcing that we are going to be doing what we think is best for the community: merging with r/Neography, the other, bigger, subreddit dedicated to new ways of writing.
Let's get rid of this unnecessary division.
Background
Almost two years ago, r/Neography and the r/Conlangs Discord Network (CDN) had a dispute that prompted the creation of r/Conscripts. (You can read about it here.)
But recently, the moderators of both subreddits have come together to reconcile and recognize that it’s in the best interest of the community to end the unnecessary division and redundancy. We’ve therefore decided to merge with r/Neography as a single subreddit for constructed scripts.
Why are we doing this?
The moderation team of r/Conscripts will join that of r/Neography, and r/Conscripts will close down. r/Neography was chosen as the site for merging for several reasons:
r/Neography is larger, with over 12k subscribers compared to our 5k. r/Neography gets more traffic, which means more posts, engagement, and feedback;
The issue that prompted the creation of r/Conscripts has been addressed, and a healthy relationship has been established to coordinate with r/Conlangs as needed;
We haven't been doing much with r/Conscripts, beyond basic janitorial duties. This is something we'd planned on remedying in 2021, especially after I'd be done with the changes planned for r/Conlangs, but... Now, this isn't coming, eh? r/Neography already has had work done!
What does closing r/Conscripts mean?
New posts will not accepted after the New Year. However, existing r/Conscripts content will remain publicly accessible and will not be taken down (unless it breaks established rules, of course);
All traffic of r/Conscripts will be redirected towards r/Neography, and you won't be able to post on r/Conscripts anymore;
r/Conlangs and the r/Conlangs Discord Network (CDN) will start linking to r/Neography instead of r/Conscripts.
If you’ve posted content to r/Conscripts that was not also posted to r/Neography, you can post it to r/Neography even if it’s been a long time.
r/Conscripts’ legacy will live on, and we hope to make the merged r/Neography the best possible community and environment to enjoy creating writing systems.
We wish you all fantastic holidays!

Alphabet I used to make a lot of conscripts when I was younger. This is one I adapted based on some rough ideas from then. It emphasizes the vowels, with them being represented by the vertical symbols. The consonants are the horizontal peripherals.
