about 50% content is like this, no matter what view you select. I think /r/pics has the right idea; it is so dominating. Other subs should change their post to be like this (with their own messages) I think.
Also, what sub did spez mod in 2008?

I think the comments said he was a mod of jailbait. Yeah... tells a lot about the guy.
As much as I hate this guy, could we please stick to the facts and criticise him for things that he actually did?
From what I can see, spez did not moderate jailbait. He was added by one of the other mods because back then you could just add people as mods without their consent. I have yet to see proof that he ever actively participated in that sub.
So please, go ahead, dislike him for being a lying jerk who‘s actively killing reddit but don’t jump on something that someone else did without asking.
I might be wrong but my memory suggests that Reddit was basically forced to eventually act in the removal of that sub and they let it and many other questionable subs linger and prosper for a long time until it became too big to ignore.
Then let's focus on that instead of made up accusations.
They usually let them go until something blew up on mainstream news. For jailbait, it got in national TV news. Then it came down. Before that? Not a peep.
Remember creepshots? Ugh so many gross subs back then.
I agree. I will continue despising him for being a nutjob prepper, restoring the KiA sub after the founder deleted it (because even he saw it as a toxic shithole) and protecting the brigaders from t_D because "vAlUaBlE DiScUsSiOn".
That god damn sub was the start of the fall of that site. They were openly allowed to brigade the rest of the sub, manipulate voting, and spew constant hate speech and blatant misinformation, all so spez could keep his new bots and Russian trolls. Reddit really never recovered from it and I'd go as far to say that site was one of the main causes of the insurrection.
I remember reading that spez could see removed posts, and one person said that he liked watching it before lunch because, according to him, it made him "hungry and horny".
this is a weird, very uncomfortable post. why are we doing this? please do not do this on here.
I commented what I thought was true information, but I can't find any source so it might not be. I'm sorry.
I remember reading that IcedCoffeeBitch is actually a hot tea lover and liked to watch videos of tea leaves being steeped. Source? Don't know, one person said it.
Again, I hate spez and definitely don't want to defend him but if we want to be taken seriously, we have to stick to provable facts. Everything else gives spez a chance to say "see, they're telling lies about me, don't listen to them."
Someone told me that dfyx is a kind and gentle soul and sticks to the issue. Not sure if true, but many people are saying it.
Absolutely scandalous. Alert the press
Pitchforks, pitchforks! Do we have them here?
----EOut of the handful of good things CNN did, demonstrating the failure of libertarianism and getting r/jailbait banned is near the top.
until you see this comment
there is still this
HA you cannot make this shit up.
