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?

    He was listed as a mod on /r/jailbait. While the man deserves pretty much all that’s coming his way, this part is mostly constantly repeated misinformation.

    Back then you could add anyone as a mod to your subreddit without their confirmation or agreement. Every admin was listed as a mod on tons of subreddits.

    Still, this is what happens when you rile up an angry mob against yourself.

    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.

    My eyes are screaming just looking at the new.reddit UI.

    Sometimes it’s good to be reminded what an abomination it actually is.
