It would be easier to prove his troll-ness if he didn't delete his account, but he was definitely a troll as well as a free speech advocate. Not that there's anything wrong with that, it's not a crime.
- shinratdr 14y ago> It would be easier to prove his troll-ness if he didn't delete his account Anyone familiar with reddit personalities heard of VA and knows he's exactly that: A troll who rolls with the punches and does the opposite of what people expect to rile them up. 99% of the subreddits he moderated were created by others and then abandoned or handed off to him against his will. He didn't create /r/PicsOfDeadKids or any of those weird one-offs. He did continue to post to them because reposting images from 4chan once and a while was easy and apparently the concept of someone actively moderating a subreddit like that amused him. He never deserved this witch hunt, and he's not a cruel or unfriendly person. The only bad interactions I've seen him have with people were those that try and provoke him.
