Comm request: the_dunk_court (hexbear.net)

Per @[email protected]'s suggestion in the thread announcing the closure of the tank comms I am suggesting a replacement comm

The concept of the comm is that it would be exactly the same as the_dunk_tank but without the unfortunate racist connotations of the name. Also, the name actually describes the content that is intended for it. Not sure why we made it any more complicated than that in the first place. Also, you can post things like articles from The Atlantic, which are also notable, and not just stuff about famous people.

Also, we should just go ahead and unlock Dredge_Tank

If that's not the reason, then I'm totally puzzled by what the argument even is. I'm all for changing the name, but if we're not worried about post quality, why exactly are we closing the comms?
