gollark: Make sure to tell us the idea first!
gollark: I mean, they are. The communities intersect lots, we have a suspiciously similar name and icon, the purposes are quite close, etc.
gollark: I assume it's probably something like "do evilness to one of the servers to force people to the other one".
