We're more reddit than reddit

In all the ways that matter, the users and quality content are its heart. Take that away and it’s more like UnDeadit.

They're likely changing the mod structure during the blackout. A lot of low-paid, repurposed bangladeshi click-farm mods coming in.

Reddit? Paying mods? As if.

They've gone 15 years not paying mods for their work. They're not about to start now, especially if they're concerned about costs.

Hopefully they culled his comments from before roughly 2014 or they're gonna have a whole new problem on their hands.

Not paying mods gave them an out to not be a publisher.

If your company is the one doing the moderation, then you become responsible for what is on your website, and that means spez would have to get rid of the Nazis :(.

That would not surprise me in the least.

Id bet their brand new API has a few horrible bugs or the system charging accounts is too slow for the real world.
