Updated rules for r/Hobart

78 Upvotes

Hi All,

We've updated the rules for r/Hobart after some feedback from users and discussion. Not much has changed but here is a summary of the changes:

  • Added doxxing to Rule about no illegal content;
  • Added a no personals content to the NSFW rule (to prevent people looking for hookups or dating) Includes the appropriate sites to do this on;
  • Added a no sales or promotional content rule (this is covered in Rule 1, but doesn't hurt to be able to refer to it in a separate rule);
  • Added a no requests for living assistance rule to address the cases of people asking for help on the subreddit and putting themselves in danger. Included a link to appropriate assistance websites and services.

Yes, it’s a driving post

Seriously though, Hobart and Tasmania in general is such a scattershot of different drivers and abilities. I’ve only lived here a year or so and I’m constantly amazed. The traffic in this town flows in the weirdest ways and it’s not the roads. It’s the way people drive here that causes a lot of the congestion.

I’ve driven cars all over the world and this place is truly mind boggling at times. Otherwise, it’s a great town.

Come and try a new sport, for free. (Ultimate Frisbee League)

22 Upvotes

Hi,
I'm Joe and I've been playing a sport called Ultimate Frisbee for nearly 30 years. I reckon it's the best sport in the world. There's a small community that play it here in Hobart, and I'm running a a beginner social league that starts this Monday, so that more people can experience how awesome it is.
All the details can be found at this facebook event page: https://www.facebook.com/share/1esy9SXjtb/

But I can also give you details here:
Soldiers Memorial Oval on the Domain, from 6pm to 6:45
No cost, totally free
There'll be an ASC accredited coach (that's me) teaching skills and techniques for the sport before we get into a short casual game. Each in the 6pm-6:45 pm timeslot will be the beginner league, so if you WANT to sign up for that, you can, and when you pay your registration fee you get a free frisbee if you're a new member. These are proper 175g ultrastars, not the cheap crap you get at kmart. https://tasmania.ultimatecentral.com/e/hobart-spring-social-2026

Everyone is welcome, all ages, all genders, all political persuasions, and even if you like pineapple on pizza.

Great way to meet new people.
Great way to get some fresh air...
A little bit of exercise, but nothing that will stress you too much. Go as hard or as soft as you want.

Anyway, I hope to see people there, feel free to AMA.

Supplementing the School Environment - Primary

7 Upvotes

If you were looking to supplement a public education (a nice but small local school) to add some sporting/social/extension activities that are maybe not realistic to expect from a government school environment, what sort of activities/opportunities have you found to be great for your kid? It doesn't need to be academic or intense, just something that might increase a social group where the school is very small, or provide some fun and valuable experiences without over-scheduling or getting too production line about childhood?

Anyone live near a location where stuff is going on day and night? One neighbour thought the other neighbours were on meth but they didn't show meth intoxication to me, just alcohol.

I'm very lucky to live in an area without all that, aside from people that move in and don't stay long. My question is... does it happen so much in your area, that it regularly disrupts your sleep? What suburbs does it happen in, that one wouldn't initially expect?

Psychologist familiar with ADHD and BPD

3 Upvotes

Hola! I'm looking for a psych in the general southern Tasmania region who knows their way around a late ADHD diagnosis and related grief, shame and depression, but also recognises bipolar or cyclothemia when they see it.

I have read a few other threads which make many good recommendations - as a result am also seeking intel on where Edwin Elcock is now (can't find him on the Archer Street site).

The thread from six years ago on BPD didn't have much in it unfortunately.

I am familiar with Carly Hargreaves for ADHD (and recommend her) but am looking for someone else, potentially a masc psych if there is one.

Thanking you in advance.

Hobart Real Estate Pricing

11 Upvotes

It seems like Hobart has a lot more properties listed at "offers over" prices than other cities.

How does this work in practice - is it a fishing attempt by agents to increase the price, and an offer under that figure might actually be accepted, or is that usually a hard floor?

e.g. Say a property has been listed at an "offers over" $1.5M for a couple of months. Would an offer of slightly under that even be considered? I know every seller's motivation is different, but interested in some local experience.
