RE: Community (Comedy Open Mic 12)

Comedy Open Mic, refers to many different "Open Mic" hosted in comedy clubs around the world where people can walk in and try making the audience laugh for 5 mins. We do the same thing, but because we're online we allow the entries to be in any format. We want everyone to just have a go at making us laugh. If you don't think you're good enough, doesn't matter. Try it. Only through effort do we become more skillful. To that end we've also started the #comedyschool to help people become funnier if they want to.
Why not join in. I promise it's fun to be funny.
I haven't seen many stand up acts. Skits on dtube seem to be the biggest supported posts where @hendrikdegrote will throw in a big upvote and they get a court jester award and video prize. Pretty good score.
Actually if you post anything funny comedyopenmic are nice and support everyone. The problem is there have been people who put the tag up and don't post anything even near funny about a completely different topic and then after getting an upvote they change the tag. That is abuse of this cool community. So in the end they will be zapped.
On the other hand those who use openmic like it should be they find some rewards.
