Jul 02 23:11:15 <Trauermarsch> x316nuts for CEO

Jul 02 23:11:27 <x316nuts> allthefoxes: is it time to vote on our rebellion?

Jul 02 23:12:59 <allthefoxes> x_plus_popcorn, stay on the page a bit longer

Jul 02 23:13:02 <allthefoxes> reddit is being sluggish

Jul 02 23:13:14 <x_plus_popcorn> ah

Jul 02 23:13:42 <baldrad> I can't wait for either an Admin to speak up and say what happened, or something to leak and a shit storm ensues

Jul 02 23:13:54 <baldrad> but reddit has to be so fucking careful right now

Jul 02 23:14:11 <x_plus_popcorn> this is some grade a drama

Jul 02 23:14:14 <x316nuts> There is nothing to leak. Victoria got fired

Jul 02 23:14:14 <blueshiftlabs> a minefield of lawsuits awaits

Jul 02 23:14:20 <x316nuts> What else do you want

Jul 02 23:14:27 <baldrad> x316nuts: people are wondering why

Jul 02 23:14:27 <x316nuts> . Shit sucks

Jul 02 23:14:30 <x_plus_popcorn> victoria said somewhere she doesn't know why

Jul 02 23:14:31 <x316nuts> It's unfair

Jul 02 23:14:37 <x316nuts> It's awful

Jul 02 23:14:48 <XenoBen> tinder is down

Jul 02 23:14:48 <blueshiftlabs> baldrad: in their defense, it's between them and Victoria

Jul 02 23:14:48 <x316nuts> She's a pillar to the community

Jul 02 23:14:49 <baldrad> x316nuts: it is more than that, think for a moment. one of the BIGGEST draw ins for reddit was AMA

Jul 02 23:14:49 <XenoBen> nooooooooo

Jul 02 23:14:54 <x316nuts> Yet she's still fired

Jul 02 23:14:57 <x_plus_popcorn> at least grindr isn't down

Jul 02 23:14:59 <baldrad> blueshiftlabs: oh no I am not saying they have to tell us

Jul 02 23:15:03 <blueshiftlabs> we have no part in it

Jul 02 23:15:11 <baldrad> but I am saying if they are going to do anything at all, they need to be carefull

Jul 02 23:15:12 <x316nuts> I'm with you 200%

Jul 02 23:15:19 <baldrad> that is all I was saying

Jul 02 23:15:20 <x_plus_popcorn> oh you mean /r/tinder

Jul 02 23:15:23 <x_plus_popcorn> not the app tinder

Jul 02 23:15:24 <x316nuts> This is some grade a bullshit

Jul 02 23:15:40 <x316nuts> I can't fathom why she got fired

Jul 02 23:15:54 <x316nuts> And the consequences will be dire

Jul 02 23:15:55 <XenoBen> this is trending worldwide on twitter

Jul 02 23:16:02 <baldrad> She had to either have fucked up big time, or in office drama. I know there was speculation that she got fired because she wouldn't move to SF

Jul 02 23:16:06 <baldrad> or SD

Jul 02 23:16:06 <x316nuts> But here we are

Jul 02 23:16:10 <blueshiftlabs> XenoBen: that can't honestly surprise you

Jul 02 23:16:38 <Paradox> hey look

Jul 02 23:16:39 <Paradox> voat is down

Jul 02 23:16:42 <Paradox> must be a day that ends in y

Jul 02 23:16:43 <blueshiftlabs> it's a major development on a website that's bigger than some countries

Jul 02 23:16:44 <XenoBen> funny might be going down

Jul 02 23:16:58 <x316nuts> In solidarity no doubt

Jul 02 23:17:14 <baldrad> It is times like this that I wish my subreddits were important enough to actually make a difference

Jul 02 23:17:30 <Smegmastodon> doesnt matter, go dark anyway

Jul 02 23:17:38 <coloicito> fuck

Jul 02 23:17:54 <x316nuts> Wonder if the other admins wonder why the didn't get a full blown riot when they gave up everything to move across the country

Jul 02 23:17:54 <x_plus_popcorn> I took haroldporn private and nobody cares about that sub

Jul 02 23:17:56 <coloicito> Modqueue rocketted to 100 in barely 5 minutes

Jul 02 23:18:11 <x_plus_popcorn> cupcake probably would have if she was suddenly fired too

Jul 02 23:18:23 <x316nuts> She quit ahead of. Time

Jul 02 23:18:23 <baldrad> I might make a sticky or something, not wanting to bring my subreddits totally down

Jul 02 23:18:33 <baldrad> yea though that sucks, I really liked cupcake

Jul 02 23:18:38 <x316nuts> Cupcake refused to move to sf

Jul 02 23:18:38 <Paradox> this was a really bad decision on reddits behalf

Jul 02 23:18:50 <Paradox> a "friday" before a 3 day weekend

Jul 02 23:18:53 <Paradox> of the fourth of july

Jul 02 23:19:11 <Smegmastodon> always fire someone at the end of the week

Jul 02 23:19:14 <Paradox> so now the employees have to handle damage control

Jul 02 23:19:16 <multi-mod> funny going down would suprise me

Jul 02 23:19:17 <x316nuts> When us nerds have all weekend to okity

Jul 02 23:19:18 <Paradox> over the 3 day weekend

Jul 02 23:19:19 <baldrad> I feel like Reddit lost its 3 big community figureheads within the last year. Alienth, Cupcake, and Victoria

Jul 02 23:19:20 <x316nuts> Plot

Jul 02 23:19:28 <Smegmastodon> RIP cupcake

Jul 02 23:19:33 <sarahbotts> noo shitramseysays is down

Jul 02 23:19:35 <multi-mod> don't make alienth's ego even larger

Jul 02 23:19:40 <sarahbotts> I miss cupacake :(

Jul 02 23:19:40 <x316nuts> Based cupcake

Jul 02 23:19:57 <baldrad> multi-mod: lol

Jul 02 23:20:01 <alienth> hueypriest

Jul 02 23:20:02 <Miranda> fuck cupcake

Jul 02 23:20:09 <x316nuts> Yet...reddit keeps doing this

Jul 02 23:20:11 <Smegmastodon> how dare you Miranda

Jul 02 23:20:15 <baldrad> Miranda: that would get messy

Jul 02 23:20:17 <Smegmastodon> cupcake is an angel

Jul 02 23:20:19 <x316nuts> It's almost like our input doesn't matter

Jul 02 23:20:23 <baldrad> what kind of frosting

Jul 02 23:20:24 <Miranda> she banned my good account

Jul 02 23:20:29 <Miranda> chocolate frosting

Jul 02 23:20:29 <baldrad> x316nuts: our input hasn't mattered in a long time

Jul 02 23:20:30 <Smegmastodon> which one

Jul 02 23:20:38 <Miranda> mircy

Jul 02 23:20:40 <x316nuts> So why act like it matters now

Jul 02 23:20:42 <Smegmastodon> aww

Jul 02 23:20:44 <Smegmastodon> that was a good one

Jul 02 23:20:49 <x316nuts> We're disposal and always have been

Jul 02 23:20:54 <x316nuts> Just like they are

Jul 02 23:20:57 <Smegmastodon> SolarAquarion

Jul 02 23:20:57 <Miranda> might as well riot then

Jul 02 23:21:01 <baldrad> x316nuts: we aren't acting like it matters... the mods input doesn't matter, what does matter is the cash flow of reddit

Jul 02 23:21:06 <tizorres> lol r/all is so weird now

Jul 02 23:21:13 <baldrad> and WE can control that by taking down subs and making people aware

Jul 02 23:21:28 <x316nuts> Reddit has been in the red for eons

Jul 02 23:21:33 <x316nuts> What we do doesn't matter

Jul 02 23:21:37 <SolarAquarion> Smegmastodon: yeah?

Jul 02 23:21:42 <alienth> x316nuts: eh, it has mattered internally with discussion. i also released features in direct response to mod issues.

Jul 02 23:21:52 <x316nuts> I'd it did they'd kick us out and do something

Jul 02 23:21:54 <Smegmastodon> SolarAquarion, now is the time to hand out your communist literature from the IWW

Jul 02 23:21:54 <alienth> like ignore reports and opt out of /r/all

Jul 02 23:22:09 <blueshiftlabs> alienth: thank you for that

Jul 02 23:22:13 <alienth> AM being integrated is also a big step

Jul 02 23:22:29 <x316nuts> Plenty of mod complaints have been addressed

Jul 02 23:22:32 <alienth> so, while I agree that there has been a lot less than what was made to be expected, there hasn't been *nothing*

Jul 02 23:22:33 <baldrad> alienth: In you honest opinion ( if you can't answer it is okay ) if we were to do something, to make them listen to the mods, what would be our best bet ?

Jul 02 23:22:38 <x316nuts> not that we pay attention

Jul 02 23:22:38 <TenthTARDIS> How long is the blackout going to last?

Jul 02 23:22:44 <blueshiftlabs> AM period was a huge step

Jul 02 23:22:50 <SolarAquarion> Smegmastodon: sounds good. Should I drop Anarcho Syndicalism and Mutual Aid

Jul 02 23:22:54 <SolarAquarion> On them

Jul 02 23:22:58 <blueshiftlabs> hiring Deimorz was probably the biggest no-brainer you guys had

Jul 02 23:23:05 <Smegmastodon> start slow, time to unionize

Jul 02 23:23:10 <Smegmastodon> butter them up to it

Jul 02 23:23:11 <x316nuts> All sorts of stuff hers updated and fixed. But we always complain about different stuff

Jul 02 23:23:12 <alienth> x316nuts: oh, sry, misread your comment. i thought you were saying what you do doesn't matter in regards to features.

Jul 02 23:23:22 <TenthTARDIS> Is this a one day thing, or is this a weekend-long thing?

Jul 02 23:23:27 <SolarAquarion> Smegmastodon: lol

Jul 02 23:23:34 <Smegmastodon> no idea TenthTARDIS

Jul 02 23:23:41 <blueshiftlabs> TenthTARDIS: more than a day, and the users won't be on our side anymore

Jul 02 23:23:46 <x316nuts> Nah all sorts of improvements get made. We. Keep moving the goal posts

Jul 02 23:23:49 <TenthTARDIS> Makes sense

Jul 02 23:23:57 <Smegmastodon> TIL when private too

Jul 02 23:23:58 <Smegmastodon> ooooooo

Jul 02 23:24:01 <TenthTARDIS> LNM is going to be standing in solidarity, at least

Jul 02 23:24:03 <blueshiftlabs> right now, they're cought up in the novelty of it

Jul 02 23:24:09 <multi-mod> listentothis is on the front page for probably the first time in its history as a default

Jul 02 23:24:14 <TenthTARDIS> We're trying to decide if we want to do more

Jul 02 23:24:16 <blueshiftlabs> after a while, they're gonna get bored, and want to see their cats again

Jul 02 23:24:16 <x316nuts> "well well what ABOUT MY NEW BOAT HMMMMM?"

Jul 02 23:24:25 <alienth> baldrad: it seems like karmanaut is having an active dialogue with alexis about things

Jul 02 23:24:28 <allthefoxes> im not even mad about deatures

Jul 02 23:24:31 <allthefoxes> features

Jul 02 23:24:32 <SolarAquarion> Smegmastodon: http://www.iww.org/culture/official/preamble.shtml the admin class and the moderation class have nothing in common

Jul 02 23:24:32 <allthefoxes> or all that

Jul 02 23:24:34 <allthefoxes> I want them

Jul 02 23:24:34 <baldrad> That is good.

Jul 02 23:24:36 <allthefoxes> but they will come

Jul 02 23:24:38 <allthefoxes> I want communication

Jul 02 23:24:42 <allthefoxes> and when they do release features

Jul 02 23:24:44 <allthefoxes> have mods in mind

Jul 02 23:24:47 <TenthTARDIS> ^^^

Jul 02 23:24:50 <blueshiftlabs> ^^^^^

Jul 02 23:24:52 <alienth> baldrad: i'm doubtful that the blackout itself will result in a productive outcome, tho :( i mean, it makes it clear that people are pissed, but beyond that i'm not sure what it'll do.

Jul 02 23:24:53 <allthefoxes> #SearchGate2015

Jul 02 23:24:55 <blueshiftlabs> communication

Jul 02 23:24:56 <Smegmastodon> omg SolarAquarion

Jul 02 23:25:03 <MeghanAM-phone> Communication++

Jul 02 23:25:07 <allthefoxes> I want new features like anyone else

Jul 02 23:25:12 <Smegmastodon> thats beautiful

Jul 02 23:25:14 <allthefoxes> but, thats not why im restricting /r/pics

Jul 02 23:25:17 <Smegmastodon> time to copypasta

Jul 02 23:25:20 <Trauermarsch> Maybe this will galvanise them into fixing their search feature

Jul 02 23:25:35 <TenthTARDIS> I think they were trying to fix that already

Jul 02 23:25:36 <Locutus> I like the new search.

Jul 02 23:25:39 <TenthTARDIS> And broke it

Jul 02 23:25:40 <allthefoxes> Im restricting /r/pics because I want better comunication, and that when they do release features, for them to have a thought about the people who help run this place

Jul 02 23:25:48 <allthefoxes> Locutus, I am eh. Cool design.

Jul 02 23:25:57 <baldrad> alienth: thanks for not sugar coating

Jul 02 23:26:05 <allthefoxes> I wish that clicking headlines actually took you to the link like the rest of the site

Jul 02 23:26:11 <SolarAquarion> Smegmastodon: I love it

Jul 02 23:26:12 <allthefoxes> And, of course, that they had mod tools

Jul 02 23:26:21 <allthefoxes> They are working on adding the moderation stuff

Jul 02 23:26:28 <allthefoxes> but why that wasnt in there before it was released

Jul 02 23:26:30 <allthefoxes> Ill have no idea

Jul 02 23:26:38 <blueshiftlabs> Trauermarsch: search is already semi-fixed

Jul 02 23:26:40 <blueshiftlabs> https://www.reddit.com/search?q=foo&sort=relevance&t=all&feature=legacy_search

Jul 02 23:26:53 <blueshiftlabs> tack on &feature=legacy_search, and you get back to the old search

Jul 02 23:26:55 <allthefoxes> a url param is not a fix

Jul 02 23:26:57 <allthefoxes> its a bandaid

Jul 02 23:26:58 <Trauermarsch> L

Jul 02 23:27:07 <blueshiftlabs> hence, "semi"-fixed

Jul 02 23:27:10 <allthefoxes> a yucky one at that

Jul 02 23:27:17 <blueshiftlabs> it's ugly as hell

Jul 02 23:27:27 <multi-mod> I refuse to append something to a url like a 1990s geocities plebe

Jul 02 23:27:29 <allthefoxes> I can understand maybe the designers forgot about the mods

Jul 02 23:27:31 <blueshiftlabs> but it'll do until they have the time to fix it properly

Jul 02 23:27:36 <allthefoxes> i really do

Jul 02 23:27:37 <x316nuts> Will someone demand that /r/beer goes private via modmail? My fellow mods are deeming left out [serious@]

Jul 02 23:27:41 <allthefoxes> but people brought it up in /r/beta

Jul 02 23:27:50 <allthefoxes> and they still didnt change it

Jul 02 23:27:52 <allthefoxes> they released it

Jul 02 23:27:58 <allthefoxes> and then when there was a backlash, now they are fixing

Jul 02 23:27:59 <allthefoxes> it

Jul 02 23:28:00 <multi-mod> x316nuts, I can't tell if serious

Jul 02 23:28:04 <allthefoxes> Tyical reddit

Jul 02 23:28:08 <x316nuts> Serious

Jul 02 23:28:10 <allthefoxes> dont fix it til theres a backlash : ^ )

Jul 02 23:28:21 <multi-mod> weren't you yelling at us for like 2 hours about it? lol

Jul 02 23:28:23 <x316nuts> Honestly serious

Jul 02 23:28:27 <x316nuts> Oh

Jul 02 23:28:28 <x316nuts> Well

Jul 02 23:28:34 <x316nuts> I'm fickle and shit

Jul 02 23:28:44 <x316nuts> I'm just here for the ride

Jul 02 23:28:51 <multi-mod> I'll message them but I feel like this is a trap

Jul 02 23:28:51 <x316nuts> And to poke at ya'll

Jul 02 23:28:58 <x316nuts> No trap

Jul 02 23:29:03 <blueshiftlabs> putting $5 on x316nuts having some speech written up

Jul 02 23:29:06 <GodOfAtheism> x316nuts i got u fam

Jul 02 23:29:07 <multi-mod> how high on the admiral ackbar scale of potential traps is this

Jul 02 23:29:17 <alienth> allthefoxes: to be fair, things we prepped that had a bunch of complaints and fears ended up not causing issues int he past. sometimes it is reasonable to see the outcome before you know how you're gonna move forward. (can't speak for the search change tho as I'm not really aware of what went on there)

Jul 02 23:29:22 <blueshiftlabs> multi-mod: "all fighters pull up"

Jul 02 23:29:53 <x316nuts> I find this all interesting so I'm just poking and prodding

Jul 02 23:30:01 <blueshiftlabs> look at (?|?)

Jul 02 23:30:04 <allthefoxes> Understandable, for sure

Jul 02 23:30:08 <blueshiftlabs> people were pissed about it for a week

Jul 02 23:30:13 <allthefoxes> but its just..leaving out functionality :/

Jul 02 23:30:15 <blueshiftlabs> and after that? nothing

Jul 02 23:30:20 <allthefoxes> People will be mad about the ui change

Jul 02 23:30:22 <allthefoxes> thats whatever

Jul 02 23:30:24 <x316nuts> I'm. Really kinda neutral on this but, as. Usual, find reddit highly. Entertaining

Jul 02 23:30:28 <alienth> i got death threads when i moved the collapse comment button to the left side of the comments tree

Jul 02 23:30:29 <allthefoxes> but just taking away functionality is silly

Jul 02 23:30:34 <Smegmastodon> SolarAquarion

Jul 02 23:30:35 <Smegmastodon> http://pastebin.com/E9Z8VUZ2

Jul 02 23:30:39 <alienth> like, multiple, detailed death threads

Jul 02 23:30:41 <alienth> threats*

Jul 02 23:30:45 <allthefoxes> Yeah, and theres (?|?)

Jul 02 23:30:47 <gilgamesh> reddit is ridiculous alienth

Jul 02 23:30:47 <baldrad> alienth: holy shit

Jul 02 23:30:52 <allthefoxes> I get a lot of death threats

Jul 02 23:30:59 <allthefoxes> less these days

Jul 02 23:31:03 <Smegmastodon> you too allthefoxes?

Jul 02 23:31:11 <x316nuts> Death threats. Fuck.

Jul 02 23:31:35 <Smegmastodon> interesting

Jul 02 23:31:38 <alienth> but also just a tonne of people yelling that it was a horrible change, when in reality the original design was *horrible*; people were just used ot it

Jul 02 23:31:39 <multi-mod> I never knew you modded gaming

Jul 02 23:32:06 <alienth> to clarify, this is the change that people freaked out on: http://imgur.com/aE1Dp

Jul 02 23:32:50 <SolarAquarion> Smegmastodon: yeah

Jul 02 23:33:21 <alienth> baldrad: because chaange

Jul 02 23:33:25 <Smegmastodon> not a fan of shitposting as a replacement for production

Jul 02 23:33:43 <alienth> whenever we wrote a feature, or any change, no matter how small, we had to expect that a tonne of people were going to angrily reject it

Jul 02 23:33:46 <alienth> because that's what people do

Jul 02 23:33:51 <MuggyFuzzball> anyone in here an admin for the #defaultmods channel that can invite me?

Jul 02 23:33:54 <Smegmastodon> also i shouldnt have replaced "trade union" with "mod union"

Jul 02 23:33:59 <alienth> and when you have to expect that, you tend to make yourself callous to *legit* complaints

Jul 02 23:34:13 <baldrad> alienth: oh I know, I started enforcing the " don't post your username " rule in kikpals and in dirtykikpals and people messaged me telling me I was the absolute worst person alive because of it.

Jul 02 23:34:21 <agentlame> MY MOD MAIL IS BURNING

Jul 02 23:34:22 <blueshiftlabs> welp

Jul 02 23:34:28 <stopscopiesme> ugh, I don’t know how to boost the signal of legit complaints...

Jul 02 23:34:32 <stopscopiesme> this website is so fucked

Jul 02 23:34:42 <blueshiftlabs> TIL there's an unrelated startup going under the name Blueshift Labs

Jul 02 23:34:47 <blueshiftlabs> not sure how I feel about this...

Jul 02 23:35:28 <alienth> i do have one piece of advice for anyone really stressed out about this: seriously, take a break from reddit. i know it is something many of y'all have dumped a huge amount of volunteer time into, but it isn't worth a bunch of stress. be happy with what you accomplished, but don't let it kill you.

Jul 02 23:35:35 <alienth> or about moderation in general

Jul 02 23:35:52 <agentlame> alienth: not for nothing, but I address the exact issue of "blind eye" in my open letter.

Jul 02 23:35:55 <Smegmastodon> i spring a half a chub every time i get a death threat

Jul 02 23:36:00 <sarahbotts> Sometimes it's hard to separate.

Jul 02 23:36:12 <sarahbotts> But after RL death threats that I got, it was a lot easier to separate lol.

Jul 02 23:36:16 <agentlame> It's not wrong. But it *is* an issue.

Jul 02 23:36:29 <sarahbotts> Mob hate sucks, and now the admins are going to be against that. Is it so undeserved though?

Jul 02 23:36:32 <x316nuts> My thighs are burning

Jul 02 23:36:37 <sarahbotts> Maybe not to that level, but there are communication issues.

Jul 02 23:37:09 <NeonGreenTiger> ANyone here familiar with RES settings?

Jul 02 23:38:07 <NeonGreenTiger> Nevermind. Apparently I just need to read the wiki -_-

Jul 02 23:38:09 <Smegmastodon> in what fashion NeonGreenTiger

Jul 02 23:38:19 <teaearlgraycold> allthefoxes, I'm on board with your users in you going private

Jul 02 23:38:20 <bmeckel> You guys should become supreme overlords like I did with /r/iphone

Jul 02 23:38:25 <bmeckel> everyone hails bmeckel

Jul 02 23:38:28 <bmeckel> It’s very nice

Jul 02 23:38:29 <greenduch> alienth for president

Jul 02 23:38:38 <NeonGreenTiger> I've gotten a new computer and wanted to transfer my res settings to the new computer

Jul 02 23:38:44 <Smegmastodon> !mods Iphone

Jul 02 23:38:45 <redditBot> r/Iphone has 8 mods: bmeckel, Dacvak, TheRedditPope, soupyhands, fwr, AutoModerator, DoTheDew, and Minifig81

Jul 02 23:39:22 <Smegmastodon> randalolson is that the xkcd dude?

Jul 02 23:39:29 <alienth> no

Jul 02 23:39:36 <alienth> Randall Munroe is the XKCD guy

Jul 02 23:39:42 <Smegmastodon> ohhh

Jul 02 23:39:55 <sarahbotts> randal olson is rhiever

Jul 02 23:40:03 <sarahbotts> he mods dataisbeautiful

Jul 02 23:40:03 <Smegmastodon> seemed outta character for munroe

Jul 02 23:40:45 <Locutus> I'm kind of liking the direction reddit's been slowly moving in, honestly. This blip's the only thing that's thrown it off for a good while.

Jul 02 23:41:35 <bmeckel> Also /r/iphone is going private until apple brings back steve jobs

Jul 02 23:41:41 <bmeckel> It’s official

Jul 02 23:41:44 <alienth> a sound policy

Jul 02 23:41:44 <allthefoxes> http://www.randalolson.com/apps/default_subreddit_status.html

Jul 02 23:41:59 <bmeckel> alienth glad you see the reasoning

Jul 02 23:42:11 <alienth> bmeckel: apple should hire Fassbender as CEO

Jul 02 23:42:20 <alienth> and require he show up in character every day

Jul 02 23:42:24 <alienth> i assume you saw the trailer?

Jul 02 23:43:31 <baldrad> allthefoxes: lololol i just linked

Jul 02 23:44:14 <bmeckel> alienth no watching now

Jul 02 23:45:27 <MuggyFuzzball> this IRC should go private until it is able to restructure the way it does AMA's

Jul 02 23:45:27 <bmeckel> OH NOW SOUPYHANDS SHOWS UP

Jul 02 23:45:49 <soupyhands> lol

Jul 02 23:46:03 <bmeckel> soupyhands we’re going private until apple brings back steve jobs

Jul 02 23:46:18 <MuggyFuzzball> good call

Jul 02 23:46:19 <soupyhands> im for it

Jul 02 23:46:30 <soupyhands> or until they make ashton kucher CEO

Jul 02 23:46:43 <bmeckel> alienth looks way too dramatic

Jul 02 23:46:49 <x316nuts> We've accomplished nothing while spacedicks remains open

Jul 02 23:47:04 <x316nuts> I'm so disappointed

Jul 02 23:47:12 <baldrad> what is wrong with spacedicks

Jul 02 23:47:21 <Smegmastodon> im not a mod

Jul 02 23:47:44 <x316nuts> It's not part of the time reddit revolution that's what's wrong

Jul 02 23:48:29 <x316nuts> This is an all hands on deck revolt

Jul 02 23:48:49 <MuggyFuzzball> I hope /r/circlejerk stays down

Jul 02 23:49:03 <x_plus_popcorn> the iamapocalypse

Jul 02 23:49:11 <Brett> Wow, shit just got real.

Jul 02 23:49:16 <Locutus> amageddon works better

Jul 02 23:49:24 <MuggyFuzzball> all of this will blow over honestly

Jul 02 23:51:12 <MuggyFuzzball> so many subreddits going dark that nobody actually visited anyway

Jul 02 23:51:12 <soupyhands> lets set it to gold only to protest the lack of people buying gold today

Jul 02 23:51:26 <Brett> Have any of the admins popped in here since it all went down?

Jul 02 23:51:32 <soupyhands> im taking /r/demotivational private

Jul 02 23:51:41 <Miranda> muggyfuzzball places going dark increases attention for them

Jul 02 23:51:44 <soupyhands> im sure our 90k subscribers will be choked

Jul 02 23:51:51 <x316nuts> And face the firing squad?

Jul 02 23:52:00 <MuggyFuzzball> there aren't any posts to gild so people can't give gold

Jul 02 23:54:08 <GodOfAtheism> in circlebroke they got reported for sexualizing minors

Jul 02 23:55:10 <sarahbotts> I didn't realize how many lurkers we had

Jul 02 23:56:33 <Brett> I have a few that have sent PM's saying they are long time members and they would like to be allowed to post.

Jul 02 23:56:35 <Brett> lol

Jul 02 23:56:37 <Smegmastodon> you're off the list

Jul 02 23:56:38 <kerovon> 7 people in /r/science. One of whom said something (not quite sure what) about FOIAs in his PM.

Jul 02 23:56:52 <Smegmastodon> i wont witchhunt you any more

Jul 02 23:57:05 <Smegmastodon> also unban me from circlebroke

Jul 02 23:57:19 <GodOfAtheism> lemme check on ur ban

Jul 02 23:57:36 --- Paradox sets invite on R:goatsac

Jul 02 23:57:48 <Smegmastodon> i never got a proper answer iirc

Jul 02 23:58:10 <Smegmastodon> though im gonna guess "novelty account"

Jul 02 23:58:14 <GodOfAtheism> if Smegmastodon is the name u use on reddit ur not banned

Jul 02 23:58:22 <Smegmastodon> <--UncleSamuel

Jul 02 23:58:33 <MuggyFuzzball> this whole thing will probably only attract more publicity to reddit

Jul 02 23:58:48 <GodOfAtheism> oh hey the ban reason is that you were listed as a novelty

Jul 02 23:58:49 <MuggyFuzzball> it's the perfect marketing tool

Jul 02 23:58:52 <GodOfAtheism> i'll go ahead and remove it

Jul 02 23:58:53 <GodOfAtheism> vOv

Jul 02 23:59:15 <allthefoxes> you know what

Jul 03 00:08:24 <allthefoxes> which is the feild for editing the private message?

Jul 03 00:08:28 <Locutus> I think I've lost all desire to engage with this blackout now it's been completely co-opted by the anti-Pao lunatic brigade. =\

Jul 03 00:08:28 <allthefoxes> desciption?

Jul 03 00:08:35 <Smegmastodon> We hold these truths to be self-evident, that not all mods are created equal, that they are endowed by their Top Mod with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are shitposting, banning and the pursuit of lulz.

Jul 03 00:09:08 <Flashynuff> allthefoxes, yes, description

Jul 03 00:09:50 <Smegmastodon> good allthefoxes

Jul 03 00:11:04 <SlyRatchet> Locutus : sign my declaration to demonstrate that you don't support the Anti- Poe message ;)

Jul 03 00:11:21 <Locutus> Ahah, done

Jul 03 00:11:26 <SlyRatchet> This is why I tried to get a declaration out. TO actually capitalise our anger and turn it into action

Jul 03 00:11:27 <SlyRatchet> yaay

Jul 03 00:11:29 <Smegmastodon> SlyRatchet asking for a brigade

Jul 03 00:12:19 <Brett> Anyone thought about using the message space to direct users to Advance Publications?

Jul 03 00:16:21 <INeedAnswers123> r/wtf is down

Jul 03 00:16:33 <MuggyFuzzball> i really wonder how much reddit corporate is freaking out right now. The investors and shareholders are probably pissed

Jul 03 00:16:53 <Locutus> I hope this gets resolved within the day

Jul 03 00:17:03 <MuggyFuzzball> it will. It will blow over

Jul 03 00:17:08 <Locutus> I don't want the site to be crippled for weeks.

Jul 03 00:17:14 <multi-mod> I don't think snoop dog is capable of being pissed

Jul 03 00:17:16 <Smegmastodon> and then it comes out that victoria murders puppies for fun

Jul 03 00:17:27 <Smegmastodon> snoopdogg is a convicted murderer

Jul 03 00:17:40 <Smegmastodon> err wait

Jul 03 00:17:41 <Xylan_Treesong> And then it comes out that Victoria murders snoopdogg for fun

Jul 03 00:17:52 <Brett> reddit is privately owned. The ad revenue is where this is going to hit them.

Jul 03 00:19:05 <joyouscacophony> Someone said reddit is trending on twitter

Jul 03 00:19:11 <joyouscacophony> I can't find the damn trending list

Jul 03 00:20:16 <sarahbotts> it's on the left when you look at twitter when you're signed in

Jul 03 00:20:52 <MuggyFuzzball> this is the most active this irc channel has been for a while. Can you guys please keep coming in here everyday so I have people to talk too?

Jul 03 00:22:56 <baldrad> wait...

Jul 03 00:22:58 <baldrad> uhhhh

Jul 03 00:23:01 <MuggyFuzzball> Is it possible that Victoria was blamed for the Jessie Jackson AMA? http://www.breitbart.com/big-journalism/2015/07/02/reddit-revolt-flares-again-as-ama-moderator-sacked-the-day-after-a-disastrous-jesse-jackson-qa/

Jul 03 00:23:10 <baldrad> oh phew nvm

Jul 03 00:23:12 <Locutus> Ugh.

Jul 03 00:23:20 <Locutus> Got another source that isn't Breitbart?

Jul 03 00:23:29 <sarahbotts> Please don't link breitbart

Jul 03 00:23:34 <sarahbotts> They're such a shitty source.

Jul 03 00:23:56 <MuggyFuzzball> i only just saw it on the twitter feed, so linked it. Never heard of breitbart

Jul 03 00:24:06 <Brett> It was a bad AMA, but I don't think it was bad enough to fire her over.

Jul 03 00:24:15 <Locutus> Yeah. There's been far worse before.

Jul 03 00:24:22 <Locutus> Maybe JJ complained.

Jul 03 00:32:06 <Brett> That Breitbart article is not one of the top news stories on twitter...

Jul 03 00:32:51 <multi-mod> even jokes is down

Jul 03 00:32:58 <multi-mod> freaking reddit

Jul 03 00:33:56 <MuggyFuzzball> over 300 new twitter messages have pushed it back by now from what I see

Jul 03 00:34:19 <Brett> Twitter is exploding.

Jul 03 00:35:52 <MuggyFuzzball> http://imgur.com/JNcDQmJ

Jul 03 00:36:14 <Brett> Reddit users speculate that it may have been one such AMA — yesterday's session with Reverend Jesse Jackson — that inspired Reddit to cut ties with Taylor

Jul 03 00:36:19 <Brett> From the verge article.

Jul 03 00:36:23 <Brett> Wow...

Jul 03 00:37:50 <allthefoxes> https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CI9iYW7VAAAzzJN.png ??

Jul 03 00:37:59 <MuggyFuzzball> They couldn't legally comment on that either, so that would explain why they haven't made a statement about it yet

Jul 03 00:38:14 <MuggyFuzzball> wouldnt*

Jul 03 00:38:48 <x_plus_popcorn> I could see it being the Jesse Jackson thing if Pao is as much of a SJW as people say.

Jul 03 00:39:08 <Brett> Yeah, makes sense.

Jul 03 00:39:54 <Brett> I wonder how long before reddit addresses the community.

Jul 03 00:40:06 <x_plus_popcorn> EVERY MOD IS RESPONSIBLE FOR HIS OWN SUB

Jul 03 00:40:54 <allthefoxes> lol

Jul 03 00:43:13 <nomnom> I hope shit doesn't hit the fan too hard

Jul 03 00:43:30 <nomnom> Cuz fuck voat

Jul 03 00:43:44 <Brett> It is a tornado of shit at this point.

Jul 03 00:44:06 <Quick_man> I didn't know that so many subs went dark

Jul 03 00:44:07 <Brett> The tornado has hit the cow pasture.

Jul 03 00:44:22 <multi-mod> it's kind of just snowballing now

Jul 03 00:44:23 <supergauntlet> holy shit

Jul 03 00:44:24 <alienth> as long as /r/subredditsimulator remains

Jul 03 00:44:25 <supergauntlet> https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CI9iYW7VAAAzzJN.png

Jul 03 00:44:34 <supergauntlet> if this is true, god fucking damn

Jul 03 00:45:10 <Smegmastodon> 99.99999999% chance marc is full of shit

Jul 03 00:45:22 <Smegmastodon> and the person he spoke to isnt close to reddit

Jul 03 00:45:30 <Smegmastodon> and is talking out of their ass

Jul 03 00:45:52 <supergauntlet> probably

Jul 03 00:45:58 <Quick_man> My internet sucks too much where I am to be able to open it, what's the tl;Dr?

Jul 03 00:46:10 <supergauntlet> wait doesn't quora see itself in direct competition with reddit?

Jul 03 00:46:15 <TheMentalist> Reddit wanted to commercialise AMAs more, Victoria didn't, they killed her

Jul 03 00:46:35 <supergauntlet> there's no way they'd terminate her over that

Jul 03 00:46:42 <MuggyFuzzball> I can't wait to see the statement from them, whatever it is.

Jul 03 00:46:45 <Smegmastodon> i have no idea what a quora is, except that yishan pissed people off when he answered quiestions on it

Jul 03 00:47:01 <x_plus_popcorn> they'll pretend it didn't happen

Jul 03 00:47:38 <geraldo> the part that upsets me the most is reddit is basically garanteeing that the details will come out

Jul 03 00:47:50 <geraldo> which will really hurt her future job prospects

Jul 03 00:47:58 <supergauntlet> i dunno

Jul 03 00:48:03 <supergauntlet> the work she did speaks for itself

Jul 03 00:48:04 <geraldo> there is a reason companies don't release that kind of stuff

Jul 03 00:48:14 <Brett> Depends on why they let her go.

Jul 03 00:48:17 <supergauntlet> and if the reason she was fired really was something stupid i don't think it will

Jul 03 00:48:18 <MuggyFuzzball> They could help her future job prospects, depending on what they are

Jul 03 00:48:37 <geraldo> she's very well known in the pr world supergauntlet she would have been in a position to get pretty much any job she wanted

Jul 03 00:48:39 <snarkypants> Quora is a website

Jul 03 00:48:44 <geraldo> there is no way this is good for her

Jul 03 00:49:04 <geraldo> i hate the fact that people are sabotaging her career all in the name of defending her

Jul 03 00:49:05 <snarkypants> http://www.quora.com/Why-did-Yishan-Wong-resign-as-Reddit-CEO

Jul 03 00:49:06 <geraldo> it's absurd

Jul 03 00:49:19 <snarkypants> it is what it is

Jul 03 00:49:27 <Smegmastodon> im told she deleted her posts

Jul 03 00:49:28 <GodOfAtheism> "Every man is responsible for his own soul." Yishan said that, and I think he knows a little bit more about making the userbase mad than kn0thing, because he invented it! And then he perfected it, so that no living man could best him in the ring of admin trolling! ... Then Ellen Pao came along and we all know how that went.

Jul 03 00:49:36 <snarkypants> this is a website that relies on thousands of people to do a lot of work for free

Jul 03 00:49:38 <Brett> Hey snarky, long time no talk. :)

Jul 03 00:49:45 <snarkypants> :)

Jul 03 00:49:59 <geraldo> yet there are no shortage of volunteers snarkypants

Jul 03 00:50:01 <snarkypants> heyu, i didnt even think you camr in here

Jul 03 00:50:08 <snarkypants> exactly, and they all do it for nothing

Jul 03 00:50:20 <geraldo> i respect the ama mods a lot

Jul 03 00:50:25 <snarkypants> so, dont expect admins actually caring

Jul 03 00:50:28 <geraldo> they do more than any other mod on reddit i think

Jul 03 00:50:38 <geraldo> for them it's very close to real work

Jul 03 00:50:52 <geraldo> but the rest of the reddit mods can fuck off with their martyr shit

Jul 03 00:51:00 <snarkypants> they will only care if/when it hurts their bottom line, not their feelings

Jul 03 00:51:28 <geraldo> most of the mods complaining could be easily replaced by very eager volunteers

Jul 03 00:51:33 <snarkypants> yup

Jul 03 00:51:33 <geraldo> maybe they should be to be honest

Jul 03 00:51:51 <geraldo> reddit might be modded a tad bit better if the mods rotated pretty frequently

Jul 03 00:51:58 <geraldo> clearly the mods enjoy it

Jul 03 00:52:00 <Smegmastodon> geraldo advocating scabs taking our jerbs

Jul 03 00:52:10 <geraldo> or they wouldn't still be mods

Jul 03 00:52:11 <Smegmastodon> its assholes like you who prevent real change in this world

Jul 03 00:52:21 <geraldo> i'm a union buster

Jul 03 00:52:43 <Smegmastodon> how much are the admins paying you?

Jul 03 00:52:56 <geraldo> 2 shekels a week

Jul 03 00:53:01 <Smegmastodon> hmm

Jul 03 00:53:03 <x_plus_popcorn> fuck, bitch, I get 3

Jul 03 00:53:03 <Smegmastodon> are they hiring?

Jul 03 00:53:11 --- ButtServ gives channel operator status to MillenniumFalc0n

Jul 03 00:53:14 <Brett> I only get 1.

Jul 03 00:53:17 <multi-mod> well, one of my top comments ever is going to be just "yup", AMA

Jul 03 00:53:18 <kerovon> I would kind of enjoy seeing a bunch of new people try to run /r/science.

Jul 03 00:53:23 <Smegmastodon> this is why we bneed to unionize

Jul 03 00:53:24 <kerovon> That would be pretty funny.

Jul 03 00:53:28 <x_plus_popcorn> Uh, multi-mod, we *can't* AMA.

Jul 03 00:53:50 --- MillenniumFalc0n sets invite on R:s1lv3rsmith

Jul 03 00:53:54 <Smegmastodon> with out victoria how will ama, ama?

Jul 03 00:54:05 <multi-mod> victoria was just karmanaut's alt

Jul 03 00:54:06 <snarkypants> we can all send in a form to the IRS and ask if we are volunteers or employees that are due backwages

Jul 03 00:54:19 <snarkypants> ae we contractors or employees

Jul 03 00:54:30 <geraldo> that would go over well snarkypants

Jul 03 00:54:34 <Quick_man> I think if they rotated mods, the subs would go to hell faster then they would if you made them all private

Jul 03 00:54:35 <Smegmastodon> i still vote we follow solaraquarions example and join the IWW

Jul 03 00:54:47 <S1lv3rSmith> hi peeps

Jul 03 00:54:54 <geraldo> i think you're wrong Quick_man

Jul 03 00:55:43 <MuggyFuzzball> I don't think a mod rotation would change anything. People generally handle things the same way in groups

Jul 03 00:55:59 <snarkypants> or does facebook say you can ony post for a new year, then you need a new account?

Jul 03 00:56:32 <geraldo> i think judging by how how up on the cross the majority of reddit mods have managed to crawl in the last hour a lot of them could do with a break from modding MuggyFuzzball

Jul 03 01:04:30 <allthefoxes> HE SPEAKS

Jul 03 01:04:32 <MillenniumFalc0n> you can get as much info as that will give you by checking the subs I mod

Jul 03 01:04:58 <Brett> wow

Jul 03 01:05:01 <MillenniumFalc0n> when did he quit working for reddit

Jul 03 01:05:02 <allthefoxes> This is top tier shit

Jul 03 01:05:05 <allthefoxes> when q wakes up

Jul 03 01:05:08 <tizorres> k sent psn request MillenniumFalc0n

Jul 03 01:05:08 <MillenniumFalc0n> like I know a bazillion years in reddit time

Jul 03 01:05:30 <MillenniumFalc0n> cool I'll add you in a bit when I go back to playing witcher

Jul 03 01:05:32 <Smegmastodon> qg is my hero

Jul 03 01:05:36 <MillenniumFalc0n> today was going to be a witcher day till all the drama

Jul 03 01:05:58 <snarkypants> the hero that is completely gone and never does anything, and then only shows up to make a sub private to stir the pot

Jul 03 01:06:16 <tizorres> I wanted to play games but drama is juicy

Jul 03 01:06:22 <Smegmastodon> he isnt top mod of anything im in, more power to him

Jul 03 01:06:41 <butter_ejaculation> I don't have any q subs, surprisingly

Jul 03 01:07:40 <MillenniumFalc0n> I think the only one for me is self

Jul 03 01:07:46 <Brett> worldnews and technology could go down as well then if he decides to move forward.

Jul 03 01:07:46 <MillenniumFalc0n> left apple a while back

Jul 03 01:08:39 <Smegmastodon> question is if he remembers how to set it private

Jul 03 01:08:52 <butter_ejaculation> someone should send him instructions

Jul 03 01:08:54 <Brett> Someone send him a picture guide.

Jul 03 01:09:15 <allthefoxes> jesus

Jul 03 01:09:18 <allthefoxes> that live thread is a mess

Jul 03 01:09:22 <allthefoxes> so much internal bickering

Jul 03 01:09:27 <allthefoxes> and now no more arcticles?

Jul 03 01:09:39 <Brett> What is the live thread address?

Jul 03 01:09:50 <Brett> I had it earlier, but closed the link at some point

Jul 03 01:10:14 <snarkypants> there is a live drama thread?

Jul 03 01:10:17 <snarkypants> more live than IRC?

Jul 03 01:10:35 <Brett> Yup, it got a little overwhelming though

Jul 03 01:12:50 <Brett> What I would give to see the traffic stats.

Jul 03 01:13:04 <Smegmastodon> probably higher than normal

Jul 03 01:13:08 <Smegmastodon> much higher

Jul 03 01:13:25 <Brett> I don't know.

Jul 03 01:13:38 <Smegmastodon> but reddit is still working, so not barack obama higher

Jul 03 01:13:42 <Brett> With whole sections going down, there is not as much content to load/browse.

Jul 03 01:14:10 <Smegmastodon> im reloading "this subreddit is private" notices like crazy

Jul 03 01:18:19 <baldrad> how do you mean ?

Jul 03 01:18:21 <MuggyFuzzball> people need to quit assuming this subreddit/irc is secure. Someone needs to go through all the users and remove access for everyone currently irrelevent

Jul 03 01:18:24 <bytester> dude

Jul 03 01:18:31 <bytester> mind=blown

Jul 03 01:18:37 <bytester> ty allthefoxes

Jul 03 01:22:47 <x_minus_zzz> it's been fun dramaing with you

Jul 03 01:23:01 <multi-mod> I think I got a good inb4 modtalk leak back a few hours ago so I'm safe

Jul 03 01:23:13 <MuggyFuzzball> there is nothing interesting in that modtalk - never anything interesting here :(

Jul 03 01:23:18 <CandyManCan> did you know im a secret cabal mod?

Jul 03 01:23:21 <MuggyFuzzball> modtalk leak

Jul 03 01:24:07 <Brett> Glancing over the pastebin, there is nothing really interesting in there.

Jul 03 01:24:27 <kwiztas> kk told me we shouldn't all go dark before subs did

Jul 03 01:24:31 <kwiztas> but that isn't really interesting

Jul 03 01:24:32 <multi-mod> hey leaker dude, the last like year of stuff from here already got leaked

Jul 03 01:24:40 <MuggyFuzzball> it's just a bunch of the normal admin hate

Jul 03 01:25:41 <MillenniumFalc0n> why does quora get all the fucking scoops

Jul 03 01:25:44 <MillenniumFalc0n> https://i.imgur.com/cocueTp.jpg

Jul 03 01:26:06 <Smegmastodon> dont buy that shit for an instant

Jul 03 01:26:29 <MillenniumFalc0n> I wouldn't either if his title wasn't "leads quaroa business and community teams"

Jul 03 01:26:38 <MillenniumFalc0n> gives a little more credence to his claims of speaking to someoen close to reddit

Jul 03 01:26:49 <Smegmastodon> wtf does close to reddit even mean

Jul 03 01:27:03 <MillenniumFalc0n> I assume he wouldn't be posting bullshit if he works for quora

Jul 03 01:27:04 <Smegmastodon> im close to reddit

Jul 03 01:27:09 <MillenniumFalc0n> of course maybe your cynicism will serve :P

Jul 03 01:27:33 <CandyManCan> kn0things brother's cousins' wifes doorman's dog walker.

Jul 03 01:27:37 <Smegmastodon> i mean no doubt they want to monetize iama somehow

Jul 03 01:27:58 <Smegmastodon> adviceanimals isnt gonna bring in the $$

Jul 03 01:28:01 <baldrad> holy shit, they need to put kn0thing on a vacation

Jul 03 01:28:03 <Brett> They own a iama trademark..

Jul 03 01:28:21 <CandyManCan> i wonder if thats enforcable

Jul 03 01:28:25 <CandyManCan> iama was a community thing

Jul 03 01:28:29 <CandyManCan> i remember when it first got started

Jul 03 01:28:42 <CandyManCan> people started posting in askreddit about shit

Jul 03 01:28:51 <CandyManCan> except instead of ask reddit it was like reversed.

Jul 03 01:28:52 <baldrad> Technically unless they bought it from the creator, IAMA is not reddits, unless there is something in the EULA about it

Jul 03 01:29:42 <Brett> https://trademarks.justia.com/856/75/iama-85675327.html

Jul 03 01:29:54 <sleepingkwiztas> BuckeyeSundae,

Jul 03 01:30:01 <sleepingkwiztas> you didn't go dark today =p

Jul 03 01:30:01 <Brett> They own the trademark, so yeah they do.

Jul 03 01:30:09 <BuckeyeSundae> Why should I?

Jul 03 01:30:17 <BuckeyeSundae> r/lol handles its own AMAs.

Jul 03 01:30:26 <BuckeyeSundae> We've never relied on admins for that content.

Jul 03 01:30:43 <Smegmastodon> how many league pros are already familiar with reddit?

Jul 03 01:30:44 <sleepingkwiztas> most of the subs went dark actually due to lack of communication not specifically the action

Jul 03 01:30:51 <BuckeyeSundae> Of course, the people who run AMAs in our subreddit are also typically more technologically savvy

Jul 03 01:30:58 <Smegmastodon> morgan freeman definitely didnt know wtf a reddit was

Jul 03 01:33:28 <BuckeyeSundae> I tend to be of the "don't be hasty" mindset.

Jul 03 01:33:45 <MuggyFuzzball> defaultmods and modtalk aren't the same

Jul 03 01:33:56 <BuckeyeSundae> I can see why the people in /r/iama and other AMA heavy subs needed to go private to work out another arrangement.

Jul 03 01:33:56 <sleepingkwiztas> we would do something BuckeyeSundae but our red tape in politics takes too long

Jul 03 01:36:42 <allthefoxes> ITs about reddits disregard and incompetence at communication

Jul 03 01:36:43 <allthefoxes> for me

Jul 03 01:36:48 <allthefoxes> and ethics in game journalism

Jul 03 01:36:51 <allthefoxes> obviously

Jul 03 01:36:52 <CandyManCan> bro

Jul 03 01:36:57 <CandyManCan> im all about that game journalism ethics

Jul 03 01:37:01 <CandyManCan> we should start a movement

Jul 03 01:37:33 <Smegmastodon> reddit:"We decided to curtail redundancies in the human resources area of our /r/iama division"

Jul 03 01:37:55 <Brett> Reddit's mission from the beginning was to be like usenet. Take a hands off approach and let the users run with things.

Jul 03 01:38:16 <Brett> Over the years, they have slowly started making adjustments, and not for the better.

Jul 03 01:38:40 <Brett> All of the older admins that actually cared are no longer there.

Jul 03 01:40:34 <baldrad> ... fuck my gf needs to get ready for bed quicker

Jul 03 01:40:36 <baldrad> I am tired

Jul 03 01:40:46 <MuggyFuzzball> punchablefaces just got banned https://www.reddit.com/r/punchablefaces

Jul 03 01:40:57 <EllenPao> are the rose petals on the bed starting to wilt baldrad?

Jul 03 01:40:59 <baldrad> MuggyFuzzball: it JUST happened ?

Jul 03 01:41:13 <MuggyFuzzball> That is what I've heard

Jul 03 01:41:22 <EllenPao> lol

Jul 03 01:41:24 <EllenPao> turn off css

Jul 03 01:41:35 <baldrad> EllenPao: fuck rose petals, i aint tryin to get sexy shit. i want to sleep

Jul 03 01:41:44 <baldrad> holy shit that is good

Jul 03 01:41:46 <EllenPao> are the candles burning low?

Jul 03 01:41:50 <allthefoxes> Notch sums it all up

Jul 03 01:41:51 <allthefoxes> https://twitter.com/notch/status/616782400039694336

Jul 03 01:41:52 <gonzobot> (allthefoxes) ✓@notch (Markus Persson): Oh, Reddit. (4 hours and 5 minutes ago)

Jul 03 01:41:55 <Brett> When did that happen?

Jul 03 01:42:08 <Brett> lol @notch

Jul 03 01:42:54 <baldrad> EllenPao: no candles, not allowed, they say I am not responsible enough for them

Jul 03 01:43:07 <baldrad> DON'T THEY KNOW I MODERATE SUBREDDITS

Jul 03 01:43:10 <baldrad> I AM SUPER IMPORTANT

Jul 03 01:43:31 <EllenPao> well maybe she'd be quicker to bed if you were more responsible

Jul 03 01:43:40 <EllenPao> she's got to make sure you turned off the oven

Jul 03 01:43:44 <baldrad> *sigh*

Jul 03 01:43:44 <EllenPao> locked the doors

Jul 03 01:43:57 <MuggyFuzzball> ok, punchablefaces is not banned - it's sneaky CSS as EllenPao said

Jul 03 01:44:21 * EllenPao #1

Jul 03 01:44:51 <MuggyFuzzball> that's going to blow up anyway. People will think it's true. It's convincing

Jul 03 01:45:04 <Brett> Yeah, you are right. Should have looked at the CSS.

Jul 03 01:50:39 <Brett> Very well said.

Jul 03 01:50:45 <Brett> Glad he got that out there.

Jul 03 01:54:02 <lilpoundcake> i go to sleep and wake up to see everyone in chaos

Jul 03 01:54:05 <lilpoundcake> wtf

Jul 03 02:00:04 <gonzobot> (Brett) Dear Reddit, you are starting to suck. : self - 7 comments, 9 points - qgyh2, 13m ago

Jul 03 02:00:14 <Brett> Clearly this is all q's fault.

Jul 03 02:09:43 <BuckeyeSundae> What?

Jul 03 02:09:50 <BuckeyeSundae> Brett, when did I say that this is all q's fault?

Jul 03 02:09:55 <BuckeyeSundae> Where the fuck did you get taht impression

Jul 03 02:10:13 <Brett> sarcasm

Jul 03 02:10:48 <Brett> I was being sarcastic. I agree with q 100%..

Jul 03 02:10:50 <BuckeyeSundae> Sarcasm that implies my argument is somehow not sympathetic to people upset with the direction that reddit has taken.

Jul 03 02:11:08 <BuckeyeSundae> You quoted my line and then claimed "clearly this is all q's fault."

Jul 03 02:11:32 <Brett> Oh, did not put two and two together.

Jul 03 02:11:48 <Brett> So I think you were bing harsh to him.

Jul 03 02:11:48 <BuckeyeSundae> Yeah. That's the difference between me and Q

Jul 03 02:11:50 <BuckeyeSundae> I'm here.

Jul 03 02:11:53 <BuckeyeSundae> Q is not.

Jul 03 02:11:59 <Brett> I agree with that.

Jul 03 02:12:23 <BuckeyeSundae> I think Q is saying circlejerky things and trying to ride the drama wave as he always does.

Jul 03 02:12:23 <Brett> But he is not actively doing anything to harm reddit either.

Jul 03 02:12:28 <BuckeyeSundae> He isn't being constructive.

Jul 03 02:12:32 <BuckeyeSundae> And that has ALWAYS been his MO.

Jul 03 02:12:39 <Brett> Yeah

Jul 03 02:12:42 <BuckeyeSundae> Ride the drama to get good press for himself.

Jul 03 02:12:45 <BuckeyeSundae> And I hate him for it.

Jul 03 02:13:02 <BuckeyeSundae> He is a fucking selfish asshole that is aprt of the reason that reddit is struggling lately.

Jul 03 02:13:03 <BuckeyeSundae> Not all of it.

Jul 03 02:13:08 <BuckeyeSundae> But a significant part.

Jul 03 02:13:20 <BuckeyeSundae> Mod Hieararchy is the problem I'm referencing.

Jul 03 02:13:23 <Brett> I don't think him stepping down would do anything at all.

Jul 03 02:13:26 <BuckeyeSundae> hierarchy

Jul 03 02:13:36 <Brett> Well that is a reddit problem, not a q problem.

Jul 03 02:13:39 <BuckeyeSundae> wtf that word is too hard when typing too fast.

Jul 03 02:13:45 <Brett> ha

Jul 03 02:14:06 <BuckeyeSundae> It is a both problem.

Jul 03 02:14:18 <Brett> There needs to be a way to remove a top mod of a reddit.

Jul 03 02:14:21 <Brett> I will give you that.

Jul 03 02:14:24 <BuckeyeSundae> Q is the abuser taking advantage fo the structural issue.

Jul 03 02:14:33 <BuckeyeSundae> And I'm aware of that.

Jul 03 02:14:38 <BuckeyeSundae> But he's pretending that he is blameless.

Jul 03 02:14:41 <BuckeyeSundae> And that cannot stand.

Jul 03 02:15:13 <Brett> I just don't see how you can really blame him for the problems that mods/reddit has today though.

Jul 03 02:15:20 <BuckeyeSundae> What?

Jul 03 02:15:32 <Brett> He is not really holding anything hostage since he does not participate.

Jul 03 02:15:45 <BuckeyeSundae> Any problem in any of his teams that is interpersonal or lacks clear direction is his fault.

Jul 03 02:15:52 <BuckeyeSundae> Do you remember the drama in /r/technology?

Jul 03 02:15:55 <Brett> I do.

Jul 03 02:16:11 <Brett> That was bad and all of the mods should have been removed at the time.

Jul 03 02:16:11 <BuckeyeSundae> He was the but-for factor, evoked explicitly several times, in the run up to that drama exploding.

Jul 03 02:16:12 <allthefoxes> kn0thing is being such a royal ass

Jul 03 02:16:44 <BuckeyeSundae> Mods played each other as though they had his favor in the run up to that drama

Jul 03 02:16:50 <BuckeyeSundae> and no one could prove anything because he didn't do anything.

Jul 03 02:16:54 <BuckeyeSundae> THAT is a fucking problem.

Jul 03 02:17:00 <BuckeyeSundae> And irresponsible on his part.

Jul 03 02:17:11 <BuckeyeSundae> He caused that drama by choosing to do nothing.

Jul 03 02:17:24 <BuckeyeSundae> It oculd have been very easily avoided just by him deciding ANYTHING in the run up to that drama.

Jul 03 02:17:32 <BuckeyeSundae> Didn't matter what he decided, so long as he decided.

Jul 03 02:17:35 <Brett> Again, that is a reddit problem for not being able to somehow vote off a top mod without repercussions.

Jul 03 02:17:42 <BuckeyeSundae> No, that is a BOTH problem.

Jul 03 02:17:46 <BuckeyeSundae> You can't lay that exclusively on reddit.

Jul 03 02:17:50 <BuckeyeSundae> He is the leader of that subreddit

Jul 03 02:17:53 <joyouscacophony> How do you add the footer to the private page?

Jul 03 02:18:06 <BuckeyeSundae> it is structurally his responsibility to see that subreddit runs the way that he wants it to.

Jul 03 02:18:23 <Brett> description.

Jul 03 02:18:36 <joyouscacophony> in subreddit settings? That simple?

Jul 03 02:18:38 <Brett> under the subreddit settings.

Jul 03 02:19:53 <Brett> I don't disagree with you, but I think reddit has a problem where we have a hierarchy on the mods.

Jul 03 02:20:10 <Brett> You piss of the wrong person and you are liable to be removed.

Jul 03 02:20:25 <Brett> That is a problem and makes everyone afraid to speak out at times.

Jul 03 02:21:07 <allthefoxes> im really mad right now

Jul 03 02:21:16 <allthefoxes> people saying "lets end this tomorrow at X time"

Jul 03 02:21:17 <Brett> About what?

Jul 03 02:21:25 <Brett> No, that is stupid...

Jul 03 02:21:28 <allthefoxes> so, we are just going to end this abruptly

Jul 03 02:21:33 <allthefoxes> with no actual solution?!

Jul 03 02:21:40 <allthefoxes> that seems to be the popular idea right now

Jul 03 02:21:48 <Brett> At least wait until the admins put out a release..

Jul 03 02:23:30 <Brett> I hope reddit is not stupid and pulls a Digg. That would suck.

Jul 03 02:26:14 <BuckeyeSundae> Brett, I agree with that.

Jul 03 02:26:20 <BuckeyeSundae> Fortunately, I'm not in any of Q's teams

Jul 03 02:26:25 <BuckeyeSundae> So I am free to criticize him entirely.

Jul 03 02:26:32 <BuckeyeSundae> Without any fear of him being able ot strike back at me.

Jul 03 02:27:07 <BuckeyeSundae> So I'm the only kid who can tell the emperor he has no clothes.

Jul 03 02:27:14 <Brett> :D

Jul 03 02:27:17 <Brett> lol

Jul 03 02:27:17 <BuckeyeSundae> And Q is an emperor of much of reddit.

Jul 03 02:27:48 <Brett> I have said for a long time now that mods need to be restricted to how many reddit's they can moderate.

Jul 03 02:27:51 <geraldo> https://i.imgur.com/F3mRg9m.png

Jul 03 02:27:55 <geraldo> did you guys see that

Jul 03 02:28:18 <BuckeyeSundae> I'd be happy to see something sensible in # of subs with X subscribers that a mod can moderate.

Jul 03 02:28:36 <BuckeyeSundae> Say, X subs over 20k subscribers or something.

Jul 03 02:28:46 <BuckeyeSundae> Whatever, pick a number and I'd be content with it.

Jul 03 02:28:57 <geraldo> a bunch of moderators throwing a tantrum isn't the best way to deal with just about anything

Jul 03 02:29:06 <BuckeyeSundae> I'd agree there.

Jul 03 02:29:18 <geraldo> i mean don't get me wrong

Jul 03 02:29:20 <geraldo> it's amusing

Jul 03 02:29:23 <Brett> Yeah, limit the subs and make it so the hierarchy is not an issue and the power is spread out more evenly.

Jul 03 02:29:29 <geraldo> to see how far up on the cross people can climb

Jul 03 02:29:53 <geraldo> how do you spread it out though

Jul 03 02:30:00 <geraldo> like how would you remove bad moderators

Jul 03 02:30:15 <geraldo> the hierarchy system isn't always effective but i'm not sure there's another way

Jul 03 02:30:24 <joyouscacophony> Legacy mods need to be addressed

Jul 03 02:30:25 <Brett> Yeah, I don't know.

Jul 03 02:30:50 <Brett> But it's an issue that needs to be looked at and worked on.

Jul 03 02:31:00 <geraldo> maybe having a maximum amount of time

Jul 03 02:31:04 <geraldo> you can mod a subreddit

Jul 03 02:31:05 <Brett> Limiting the number od reddits would be a good start.

Jul 03 02:31:06 <geraldo> a year or two

Jul 03 02:31:10 <BuckeyeSundae> Hopefully, /r/lol shows a potential other way that can be better supported.

Jul 03 02:31:17 <joyouscacophony> that's unfair, geraldo

Jul 03 02:31:19 <BuckeyeSundae> We literally elect our top mods when the top mod steps down.

Jul 03 02:31:26 <Brett> No, that would suck to get removed after a year.

Jul 03 02:31:35 <geraldo> i mean

Jul 03 02:31:36 <BuckeyeSundae> And then we shuffle our list to get the elected mod to the top.

Jul 03 02:31:46 <geraldo> it would probably be good for the subreddits though

Jul 03 02:31:48 <joyouscacophony> A lot of us enjoy it and to put that much time into something and have to walk away

Jul 03 02:31:55 <geraldo> look at whats happening now though

Jul 03 02:31:59 <allthefoxes> https://www.reddit.com/r/defaultmods/comments/3byqi4/we_hear_you_lets_talk/

Jul 03 02:32:00 <allthefoxes> https://www.reddit.com/r/defaultmods/comments/3byqi4/we_hear_you_lets_talk/

Jul 03 02:32:00 <allthefoxes> https://www.reddit.com/r/defaultmods/comments/3byqi4/we_hear_you_lets_talk/

Jul 03 02:32:02 <Brett> See, that is cool and maybe there needs to be a dice roll feature.

Jul 03 02:32:05 <allthefoxes> HAPPENING STATUS

Jul 03 02:32:06 <BuckeyeSundae> But if features better supported being able to choose a replacement, that'd make it easier and less disruptive to appoint a specific team-chosen leader.

Jul 03 02:32:06 <geraldo> these people are way too entitled

Jul 03 02:32:09 <joyouscacophony> It's not mods

Jul 03 02:32:11 <allthefoxes> !roll 1d6

Jul 03 02:32:29 <Brett> Damn, I am not part of the defaulmods group.. :(

Jul 03 02:32:47 <BuckeyeSundae> Yeah, /r/lol apparently isn't active enough to be considered a default by the cool kids. :V

Jul 03 02:32:58 <BuckeyeSundae> We only have the single most viewed subreddit in reddit.

Jul 03 02:33:10 <BuckeyeSundae> #nobigdeal

Jul 03 02:33:24 <geraldo> allthefoxes, can you summarize that thread

Jul 03 02:39:19 <Brett> Hmm....

Jul 03 02:39:44 <Brett> Not a fan of that responce.

Jul 03 02:40:44 <allthefoxes> im fine with it

Jul 03 02:40:47 <allthefoxes> its exactly what I wanted

Jul 03 02:41:21 <Brett> Everyone going to stop the blackout now?

Jul 03 02:42:13 <allthefoxes> oh shit ellen replied to me

Jul 03 02:43:19 <joyouscacophony> Never wash your monitor again

Jul 03 02:50:32 <geraldo> how has no one leaked it yet

Jul 03 02:51:57 <kerovon> geraldo: someone already posted it in the SRD irc channel.

Jul 03 02:52:51 <geraldo> i linked the subreddit

Jul 03 02:52:54 <geraldo> for those that have access

Jul 03 02:55:38 <geraldo> oh now someone has leaked it

Jul 03 02:55:40 <geraldo> oh well

Jul 03 02:56:17 <kerovon> I've seen the image posted a couple times. Inevitable.

Jul 03 02:57:15 <allthefoxes> you know

Jul 03 02:57:18 <allthefoxes> whats weird

Jul 03 02:57:28 <Brett> What?

Jul 03 02:57:35 <allthefoxes> kn0thing using r/pics or u/krispykrackers

Jul 03 02:57:42 <allthefoxes> rather than /r/pics

Jul 03 02:57:58 <allthefoxes> you would think the reddit founder would be attached to the old way

Jul 03 02:58:44 <geraldo> he didn't know how to do it

Jul 03 02:58:45 <geraldo> remember

Jul 03 02:58:57 <geraldo> in one of his AMA's like 6 months ago

Jul 03 02:59:02 <geraldo> he didn't know how to link subreddits

Jul 03 02:59:07 <geraldo> people gave him a ton of shit

Jul 03 03:00:53 <joyouscacophony> that's probably why they nuked the leading / necessity

Jul 03 03:01:37 <Kaphox> Can I ask why kn0thing decided to issue a statement on /r/modtalk?

Jul 03 03:01:48 <Kaphox> IMO the post should be public, not just to us mods.

Jul 03 03:02:19 <TheAppleFreak> it's already been leaked via the live thread

Jul 03 03:02:20 <Brett> I think it was appropriate to start the communication with the mods first.

Jul 03 03:02:26 <kerovon> He really should make it elsewhere as well, but by doing one there, he can actually get responses from mods and not have random users posting replies.

Jul 03 03:02:29 <TheAppleFreak> or at least the initial post

Jul 03 03:02:29 <Brett> I am sure a public statement will be had.

Jul 03 03:02:37 <Kaphox> TheAppleFreak: how was it NOT going to leak?

Jul 03 03:02:42 <Kaphox> it was a matter of seconds

Jul 03 03:02:54 <TheAppleFreak> to be fair, it was leaked a minute after posting

Jul 03 03:03:13 <Kaphox> lol exactly

Jul 03 03:03:16 <Brett> Was kickme444 fired?

Jul 03 03:03:22 <Gaget> GUYS

Jul 03 03:03:30 <Gaget> THEY BANNED PUNCHABLE FACES?

Jul 03 03:03:34 <TheAppleFreak> it's CSS

Jul 03 03:03:40 <Kaphox> lol no

Jul 03 03:03:44 <Kaphox> and a terrible CSS job it is

Jul 03 03:03:45 <Gaget> >_>

Jul 03 03:03:46 <Kaphox> it's shoddy

Jul 03 03:04:19 <MillenniumFalc0n> can we just talk

Jul 03 03:04:21 <Gaget> Saw their Pao post on /r/all and clicked on it and went straight to the banned screen.

Jul 03 03:04:27 <MillenniumFalc0n> about how awesome krispykrackers is

Jul 03 03:04:32 <Gaget> Figured it had just gotten banned.

Jul 03 03:04:33 <MillenniumFalc0n> glad he picked her

Jul 03 03:04:34 <MillenniumFalc0n> smart choice

Jul 03 03:04:51 <Gaget> krispy is cool, but does she do any actual modding?

Jul 03 03:05:00 <MillenniumFalc0n> I can't speak to her modding

Jul 03 03:05:02 <Gaget> I mean... lately?

Jul 03 03:05:08 <MillenniumFalc0n> but she's definitely the most experienced CM they have on staff

Jul 03 03:05:17 <MillenniumFalc0n> and she's nice/responsive/generally helpful

Jul 03 03:05:19 <Gaget> Because moderating now is way different than it was years ago.

Jul 03 03:05:21 <kerovon> I've had her respond when I've reported someone spamming personal info

Jul 03 03:05:22 <MillenniumFalc0n> she's who I'd pick

Jul 03 03:05:27 <MillenniumFalc0n> now that cupcake is gone

Jul 03 03:05:34 <Kaphox> lol kn0thing did u/krispykrackers

Jul 03 03:05:36 <Kaphox> only one slash

Jul 03 03:05:37 <Kaphox> what a noob

Jul 03 03:07:28 <GodOfAtheism> punchablefaces halfassed their css

Jul 03 03:07:35 <GodOfAtheism> gotta do that pro shit like /r/braveryjerk

Jul 03 03:07:41 <Kaphox> TheAppleFreak: I don't see that many leaks of the modtalk post

Jul 03 03:08:32 <TheAppleFreak> gimme a few minutes to find it

Jul 03 03:09:32 <TheAppleFreak> https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CI-EAtpUAAAZCyQ.png:large

Jul 03 03:09:56 <TheAppleFreak> no comments

Jul 03 03:09:59 <TheAppleFreak> but still a leek

Jul 03 03:10:37 <geraldo> is there nothing on srd yet?

Jul 03 03:10:38 <geraldo> wow

Jul 03 03:11:47 <Kaphox> It /has/ only been 40 mins

Jul 03 03:12:15 <BuckeyeSundae> <MillenniumFalc0n> but she's definitely the most experienced CM they have on staff

Jul 03 03:12:15 <BuckeyeSundae> <MillenniumFalc0n> and she's nice/responsive/generally helpful <-- agreed

Jul 03 03:12:36 <BuckeyeSundae> I think Krispy is a natural choice for a point-person on mod issues. Her or demoirez.

Jul 03 03:12:56 <BuckeyeSundae> But CM is in her job description, not in his.

Jul 03 03:15:33 <MillenniumFalc0n> geraldo: they've been getting removed because they were hitting an automod filter for having blacked out subreddits

Jul 03 03:18:02 <Kaphox> was there any discussion about /r/funny blacking out>

Jul 03 03:25:22 <straightouttasweden> just woke up and punchablefaces is banned

Jul 03 03:25:29 <straightouttasweden> was removing posts

Jul 03 03:25:30 <Brett> it's css

Jul 03 03:25:32 <straightouttasweden> oh

Jul 03 03:25:33 <straightouttasweden> what

Jul 03 03:25:42 <GodOfAtheism> http://www.reddit.com/r/punchablefaces+null

Jul 03 03:25:44 <GodOfAtheism> Not banned

Jul 03 03:25:52 <GodOfAtheism> Not even particularly good CSS

Jul 03 03:25:54 <MillenniumFalc0n> geraldo: yeah approved

Jul 03 03:26:00 <GodOfAtheism> Not like http://www.reddit.com/r/braveryjerk

Jul 03 03:26:00 <MillenniumFalc0n> also whoever leaked is a dick

Jul 03 03:26:06 * MillenniumFalc0n shrug

Jul 03 03:26:09 <MillenniumFalc0n> but reddit will go on

Jul 03 03:26:11 <geraldo> does it matter that much

Jul 03 03:26:14 <straightouttasweden> welp

Jul 03 03:26:14 <geraldo> it would have been leaked

Jul 03 03:26:17 <straightouttasweden> already sent a msg to the admins

Jul 03 03:26:20 <straightouttasweden> going to lock it down

Jul 03 03:26:20 <geraldo> and honestly it should have been public

Jul 03 03:26:22 <GodOfAtheism> modtalk is a sieve

Jul 03 03:26:31 <MillenniumFalc0n> true

Jul 03 03:26:39 <MillenniumFalc0n> default mods is *slightly* better

Jul 03 03:26:47 <geraldo> well that hasn't been leaked yet

Jul 03 03:28:19 <GodOfAtheism> oh hey i can post in both of those threads

Jul 03 03:28:21 <GodOfAtheism> neat

Jul 03 03:31:20 <creesch> wow...

Jul 03 03:31:30 <creesch> people are angry at us in /r/history for going back to public...

Jul 03 03:32:00 <Brett> pics is not happy either.

Jul 03 03:32:02 <straightouttasweden> lol

Jul 03 03:32:10 <straightouttasweden> the mod who put that shit on /r/punchablefaces has been banned

Jul 03 03:32:13 <straightouttasweden> showing up as [deleted]

Jul 03 03:32:35 <creesch> Dafuq...

Jul 03 03:32:39 <creesch> We must be linked somewhere

Jul 03 03:32:46 <creesch> Oh

Jul 03 03:32:52 <creesch> this is the only post in new now

Jul 03 03:32:59 <creesch> so it is the frontpage post I guess

Jul 03 03:34:02 <GodOfAtheism> drama had the leak

Jul 03 03:34:11 <GodOfAtheism> srd has the post with links to the modtalk and defaultmods threads

Jul 03 03:34:28 <Brett> Bound to happen

Jul 03 03:36:49 <kerovon> creesch: That is why science just set automod to remove anything.
