- Goopplesoft 13y agoThanks! Any chance you could breif that? I'm curious but lacking time to read through and make sense it all.
- bobbles 13y agoEssentially he wanted to be a cofounder of something. It was decided that he would 'merge' with reddit, but the reddit guys described it as him turning up one day and them having to deal with it. He was flaky and got fired. Yes theres lots of other details but thats the gist of it
- marvin 13y agoThe tone in that comment thread is just poisonous. I'm not sure that reddit has really gotten worse with age. If I remember correctly, there was a period of 1-2 years when there were so many mean comments on AskReddit that I almost gave up the site.
