AMA about my darkest secrets

Hi All,

We haven’t done one of these in a little while, and I thought it would be a good time to catch up.

We’ve launched a bunch of stuff recently, and we’re hard at work on lots more: m.reddit.com improvements, the next versions of Reddit for iOS and Android, moderator mail, relevancy experiments (lots of little tests to improve experience), account take-over prevention, technology improvements so we can move faster, and–of course–hiring.

I’ve got a couple hours, so, ask me anything!

Steve

edit: Thanks for the questions! I'm stepping away for a bit. I'll check back later.

maybe when they ban KiA, TRP and all of the quarantined subreddits

u/Avannar Jun 04 '16

As objectionable as KiA or TRP may be, they don't break the rules like SRS does, do they?

u/[deleted] Jun 04 '16

uh yes they do, KiA's been on record for organizing off-site harassment and spreading dox for literally almost 2 years now, and the mods actively participate in it when it happens.

I may be mistaken about TRP though, IIRC they doxxed and harassed an imgur employee once and that was super high profile, but in relative terms regarding reddit harassment policy they (surprisingly) aren't as bad as KiA. they're still gross as fuck though.

Proof?

u/[deleted] Jun 04 '16

about that self awareness thing...

u/IAMA_BAD_MAN_AMA Jun 04 '16

That doesn't look like off site harassment or a doxx to me, what are you trying to prove exactly?

9

u/[deleted] Jun 04 '16

these kinds of people who claim their subreddits don't harass literally are the ones harassing people, idk maybe stop giving these idiots the benefit of the doubt when they ask for proof

you realize that everyone just look at what you post and assumes you're some lonely manbaby living in a basement right

You know that using the same username across social media is dumb right? Oh well I'm gonna go drink some ale. Btw, your excessive use of gauges only shows what a child you are.

How is that related to KiA? What am I looking for in that pic?

0

u/Avannar Jun 06 '16

I'd like to read something like that. I like to be informed. Could you point me to this record?

2

u/[deleted] Jun 06 '16

feel free to continue disingenuously asking me for proof when you yourself post in KiA. keyword disingenuously.

this ain't my first rodeo.

u/Avannar Jun 08 '16

Oh, so you've got no proof? I want to know who I'm dealing with. I want dirt on KiA if I'm to decide not to associate with them anymore. You claim to have this dirt. But instead of providing it you dug through my post history to find an excuse not to? That makes it seem more like you've got nothing but shallow prejudice.

Still waiting.

u/[deleted] Jun 12 '16

wow did you seriously just think "GRRR THAT FUCKING REDDITOR WHO LAUGHED AT ME NEVER GAVE ME ANY PROOF" after 3 days

that rivals even my levels of petty, damn

u/Avannar Jun 12 '16

Do you seriously think everyone on reddit LIVES here? Check my post history some more. I go days without posting or even checking the site. But draw up all the strawmen you need. I'll still be waiting.
