Sysadmin

I'm fearful of people going redditZero and deleting their years-old accounts, as reddit has become a vast trove of information for a vast number of systems. If I go dark and delete, it won't be everything. Memes and regular conversations may go, but I'll be sure to leave every technical response I've ever given (or even edit it if I have since learned more precise information). It feels like so many are ready to cut off their nose to spite their face. The community we had was built by us collectively and enriched by the content we shared. I feel like despite reddit literally doing everything wrong, by deleting our collective wisdom, we aren't hurting reddit as much as we're hurting our own community of sysadmins.

Please consider that we are facing a Wisdom of the Ancients situation here, and I sure as shit know that I don't want to be the one on the other end of seeing "deleted", then "Thanks that worked!" in my future.

Just food for thought.
