What are we doing to our community /r/Brisbane ?

I’m not sure how to really word or approach this, but lately, in my eyes we haven’t become a very positive or cohesive community. Maybe it’s just me, but I want to make sure and see if anyone else feels the same way as I do and ive been feeling this for some time. As some of you may remember I spent a good part of the last couple years being overly chatty and organising some of the non official reddit meetups across Brisbane. While we haven’t had one in quite a while, no one else has bothered to step up to the challenge and to me, I feel that’s been a blow to our community. I took a step back as I was embarassed about the last meetup i hosted at Green Beacon (11 months ago) because of what I did. I met some cool people but also intentionally

Who wants to go on a date?

So I need to go on at least 1 date to fill my new years resolution, I’m a 26yr old male healthcare professional, I own my own house, I have two puppies, so I do alright! I just had such a busy work schedule last year I didn’t get to go on a single date! I don’t have any particular type or anything, just be a nice person. Probably just PM me if you want to know anymore 🙂 submitted by /u/Temporaltraveller [link] [comments]

Any audio nerds about?

I just bought some old speakers that are returnable if I’m not 100% happy with the sound quality. I however don’t currently have an amplifier. I’m wondering if there is any one out there who would like to come over with a decent amplifier for a audio nerd out session with me and my record player? Thanks. submitted by /u/borosillycat [link] [comments]

Couple moving to Brisbane next week, in need of a flat!

My fiancĂ© (30M) and I (25F) are moving to Brisbane in about a week. We are on a 1 year working holiday visa from the U.S. and we are having some difficulty finding a place to live. We will both be working full time and are looking to spend about $300 a week or less for a furnished flat. We would love to have flatmates or make some new friends at the same time, but anything works. We are both friendly, very tidy, non smokers. My fiancĂ© is a gaming nerd and I enjoy yoga, a few drinks at the pub with some mates, etc. I have been using gumtree, but it seems that as soon as I inquire to a flat it becomes ‘unavailable’. Is there something I’m doing wrong? I don’t currently have an AU phone number so I’m worried that is scaring people away from even responding.
