The unwillingness to back down is mind boggling.
I think he has shown his true form, he was always a cunt and not a very intelligent one. But now that the games afoot he has shown his true colors. The only thing he cares about is $$$$
Don't forget that he also ran the sub r/jailbird, which totally makes everything....uhhhhh....yeah....makes it.....
Edit: phone autoassume changed the name of the subreddit, I'm actually fine with that.
Be careful; someone might jump down your throat to say that "there was a time in Reddit where someone could add anyone as a moderator" but fail to provide any proof of this (that u/spez was added as mod to troll him). For all we know, spez himself actually mods jailbait, just not actively.
Also, if you were added against your will, especially to somewhere like that, why would you not remove yourself immediately? He's the cofounder of Reddit, it's not like we're talking about some rando who checks his account once a year and doesn't pay attention to potential changes they didn't make, PLUS he's literally an admin with server side access which makes any claims of "well you couldn't remove yourself once added as a mod" invalid, there is no way he didn't notice it and no way he could not remove himself. He wanted to be there and wholeheartedly endorsed such content being hosted from Reddit until the public rightfully got outraged and forced them to ban it.
Can’t back down when you’re a narcissistic liar
yea this guy screams narcissist
Need to come off macho and confident for the shareholders/potential shareholders.
I genuinely believe this is the real reason.
Not even willing to negotiate or come to some kind of understanding anymore. Just straight up treating the community that put him where he is as if we're the bad guys.
he needs competition
