You seem to have asserted that this type of content regularly makes it to the front page, but in my experience that's not true at all.

  In my 5+ years, I tend to agree with you; there are occasionally little spats that I see, but by and large-- I'd never have known about all of this "bad" stuff if it weren't for other people telling me about it.

    >I'd never have known about all the "bad" stuff if it weren't for other people telling me about it. This is precisely the issue with "bad" stuff. It draws better attention to itself than the good stuff does. All the more reason for Reddit to get control of it if they want to inspire user growth and maintain ad revenue.

      Well, like I said, I'd have never known about it if other people hadn't told me. I can't speak to what Reddit "should" do; in _my_ niche area, Reddit works just fine the way it is. If they were to start "doing something about it", it'd likely not affect me in the least.
