      What’s the origin of the pedo accusation?

      Edit: Is pedophile on the list of words we’re gonna make meaningless now?

        He was the moderator of a sub called “jailbait” for a long time. What’s less clear is if that was something he did on purpose or if someone else assigned him as a mod as a prank assuming he wouldn’t notice

          I always wondered why a subreddit like that was allowed to exist in the first place. I guess I have my answer now.

            As I remember it, reddit got its start when “internet culture” was pretty heavily downstream of 4chan/somethingawful/ytmnd. And pedo-type behaviour was pretty normalized in those spaces.

          When someone invites you to become a moderator you have to click a couple times to accept. It was no accident.

            Not exactly. In the olden days of reddit no confirmation on your part was necessary.

            That wasn’t how it worked at first. Back when I first joined Reddit you could be made moderator of a sub by another user without confirmation

          Ohh I remember that. I also seem to remember you used to be able to make other people mods without confirmation back then? Maybe I’m misremembering.

            This is correct. We should hate spez for being a skeevy ashole, but let’s not make up random accusations.

        Can we clarify what “not much different” means? I’m not mad at this guy for calling people names…
