  5. Ellen Pao was forced to resign, because someone ..on her team fired everyone's favorite community manager... she didn't have much of a part of it, and the mods basically ended up shutting down the site. This is far more egregious than that and there will be backlash. Huffman was already on thin ice with the community, and many are unhappy with the direction he's been taking with, what with banning controversial subreddits, and other accusations. Maybe your average Reddit user won't care, but when the mods from r/askreddit or r/news decide to address their community about it, and shut down their subreddit as they've done before, you'll all of a sudden have a few million people caring. On top of that, Huffman just destroyed evidence used in court, and any good lawyer will be to dismiss it. And, I don't know the truth in it, but I've seen people claiming he also broke impersonation laws. I'm almost sure that there will be some significant backlash from the community. This is a huge blow to the already shaky repuation of the Reddit staff. EDIT: Well, not so sure how true the above is anymore... because the default mods seem to side with him. http://archive.is/ZmULb
  6. So those of you that don't know, I spend a lot of time on Reddit, and I enjoy it a lot. Recently though, some incredibly disturbing news has broke: https://techcrunch.com/2016/11/23/reddit-huffman-trump/ Essentially, the CEO of Reddit admitted to editing some user's comments. I was curious, for those you that use Reddit, or don't, what you think. Personally, I've immediately lost a lot of respect for the site, and while I didn't browse it for news, lost a lot of trust and credibility with the site as well. I'm certain this will be a huge issue over the coming days, and I'll be very curious to see what happens to Reddit in the coming months; comments from the site are being used as court evidence for fucks sake, and every one of those comments is potentially invalidated because it very well could have been edited by an admin. Moreso, this wasn't a small time admin either. This was THE CEO of Reddit, the man who runs the show, so him losing his cool and editing comments is utterly destructive to the company's reputation. I would not be surprised to see him step down, and a new CEO take his place, which would mean three CEOs in the last year. At the very least, they need to come out with an official announcement. Tomorrow. They need to start doing damage control ASAP. The PR team is gonna be stretched to the gills trying to talk their way out of this one. What are your thoughts?
  7. Wow. The reddit CEO just admitted to editing posts. Way to fuck up. Big time.
