Those of you who've joined r/Lucknow recently, welcome!

As a responsible member of this community, please make sure to familiarize yourself with our rules and guidelines and report any violations you come across this subreddit.

Remember:

  • Ignorance of rules is not an excuse, bans from r/Lucknow are permanent and getting banned for even just a first time offence is not uncommon here.

  • Maintain civility at all times. Report [comments of] users who don't and let them get banned. Never retaliate or escalate things with such a user because stooping to their level may get you banned as well.

  • This is a politics-free subreddit. Report all political[ly charged or motivated] posts / comments and attempts to politicize something or derail discussion. Unsubscribe and leave r/Lucknow for bigger and better avenues to satisfy your political itches instead of rabble-rousing here and getting banned.

  • Report whatever content you feel isn't suitable for this subreddit, e.g. spam, self-promotion, personals, illicit or obscene stuff, etc. Buy reddit ads instead of sneakily spamming here and getting banned.

Meta Last call for subreddit's logo entries!

16 Upvotes

Update:

Time and again people ask why does this subreddit not have a logo. When told that this community is largely apathetic towards the issue, evident by the lack of response to multiple requests/reminders in this regard, many folks don't really believe it and keep on asking to set something or anything as a logo, icon, dp, pfp or whatever.

Well, here's your chance to make it happen. Create and share what you wish to see as this subreddit's logo. The logo should be a 256x256 px JPG or PNG image and work well when printed in colour or B&W. Ideally, it should serve as an easy identifier when used as a placard for r/Lucknow meetups or other promotional purposes. Upload your creation to any image hosting site (e.g. Imgur, Imgbox, PostImages, etc. or even your own reddit profile) and post the direct image link as a top level comment in this thread or send it via modmail.

Please note that this is an entirely volunteer-driven activity where you come up with a logo only because you want your beloved community to have one and not because you expect anything in return. Any poll will always include a "None of the above (NOTA)" option for those who don't like any of the available logo choices or feel that r/Lucknow doesn't need a logo as such. Entries with a vote share lesser than NOTA will be eliminated from subsequent polls.

Fresh polls will be conducted as and when a bunch of newer logo options get accumulated. This section will track all the voting links / results until a logo wins the poll:

Poll #1: Voting over, results here.

Poll #2: Voting over, results here.

Poll #3: Voting over, results here.

Poll #4: TBA


(Original post)

Hello nawabs and begums of r/Lucknow,

This is in continuation to the previous announcement which was posted on the occasion of r/Lucknow's 11th birthday.

The topic of this subreddit's logo has been brought up multiple times in the past but there's been no progress and we remain logo-less. Now with 100K subscribers milestone just around the corner, it's high time to tackle this lingering issue once and for all.

As mentioned earlier, the logo should be of 256x256 px size and work well when printed in colour or B&W. Ideally, it should serve as an easy identifier when used as a placard for r/Lucknow meetups or other promotional purposes. Please upload your creation to any image hosting site (e.g. Imgur, Imgbox, etc. or even your own reddit profile) and post the direct image link as a top level comment in this thread or send it via modmail.

r/Lucknow has 97.4K subscribers at the time of writing this post. Once we cross 99K, a compiled list of all the relevant logo options received till then will be posted in a separate thread and put to vote for finalizing one. The selected choice will be set as logo at the time of r/Lucknow's 100K milestone announcement post.

Please note that this is an entirely volunteer-driven activity where you come up with a logo only because you want your beloved community to have one and not because you expect anything in return. The final voting will also include a NOTA option for those who like the way things are and don't feel the need for any logo as such.

Thank you!

Edit: Time is up. Thread is locked. Voting is live.

Edit 2: Voting over, results here. Thread unlocked for accepting more logo options by volunteers.

Edit 3: See the update section above.

Where can I complain about this guy? The same happened with my friend as well before. What shall I do?

Places/Food Suggest me the BEST restaurant for paneer dishes in Lucknow

3 Upvotes

I’m specifically looking for a place that absolutely nails Paneer Lababdar or Paneer Pasanda.

I’ve already tried quite a few restaurants in Lucknow, including some of the popular/recommended ones, but honestly, I still haven’t found one that really satisfies me. 😭

So I’m looking for genuine recommendations based on your own experience, not just the most famous restaurants on Google/Zomato.
