It's not a big deal because it's reddit, a semi anonymous Internet board. It's not like he was editing legal statements.

- vidarh 10y agoIt's a big deal because he was making it seem like users had made statements they haven't made. Maybe these specific instances doesn't matter so much, but the fact he did it, and did it without leaving a visible sign it was edited creates an issue of trust. We now feel less safe that Reddit admins haven't done this in the past too, in cases where it matters more.
