They should ask for a refund.

  Unfortunately, no one can refund time.

  Har har har. But in all seriousness Reddit become the phenomenon it is because of its users, and the many hours, days, weeks, and months they each individually put in to build communities. To create something with value, larger than themselves. Who's going to rufund that time investment?

    > Who's going to rufund that time investment? Well, what's that time worth? If they can find a site that will pay them all for that time investment, then maybe we could start to attach a value to it.

    The people who invested in /r/coontown and /r/fatpeoplehate don't deserve a refund from Reddit (or anyone else, for that matter). Most of Reddit's users aren't going to find their subreddits of choice interfered with. And honestly, the people who are going to get smacked by this are well capable of forming social connections that transcend Reddit, so they haven't lost all of their investment. But investment of time doesn't in itself guarantee a refund---never does, shouldn't be expected to without a contract in place.
