Based former Reddit CEO /u/yishan says to troll powermods until they break to get them removed

https://old.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/pobjho/_/hcwnz67/?context=1&sort=controversial

There’s actually quite a few comments from him in that post dunking on Reddit and u/spez.

It looks like the r/iAma jannies are working overtime tonight, so here is the removed comments for the post

Haha, holy shit OP I thought you were editorializing.

My advice (if you really want them removed) is to troll the heck out of them until they're so far on tilt that they end up violating a Reddit rule, and then the admins ban them.

Look at it in contrast to his other answers and it's even funnier. He sounds like he's got a higher IQ than Bill Gates.

I once pissed off an admin by telling them that Aaron Swartz would kill himself if he saw reddit now. Sadly that account has been purged.

Aaron was a dumb fricker for thinking he could get away with his silly datahoarder ninja hacker batman escapade, but I still sympathize with him. Kid had some ballz.

scihub literally did want Aaron wanted without all his drama. Personally, I hate to see him go like that, but he didn't need to do it like that. Sad to see.

When your site is new r/deadBIPOCs seems like a who cares sub. When it's mainstream everything sucks. It happens to every franchise and series in existence.

Jump in the discussion.

No email address required.

Why do people keep saying that? Reddit was already fairly mainstream (certainly mainstream enough to get journos interested) when the very first sub drama happened - r/jailbait, which was in the grey area even legally. It took years for them to start outright sanitising it, and self-congratulatory reports on how many subs/accounts were banned started happening very recently. It was a deliberate pivot. Think like what ruqqus tried to do, but with less insane userbase and over the course of quite a few years.

Jump in the discussion.

No email address required.

Reddit didn't ban any subs the first like 4 years it existed and no one knew the site existed. It was definitely not mainstream.

Heck reddit had a subreddit for fake ids called r/fakeid for fraud called fraudnet for shoplifting for scamming with 100k+ subscribers and an active blackmarket up until recently when they did a mass purge 2-3 yrs ago

In 2012, when asked about various controversial Reddit communities, Wong said that the site should provide a platform to objectionable content, saying "We will not ban legal content even if we find it odious or if we personally condemn it."[8] In 2013, he hired Ellen Pao to the board of Reddit as the Vice President of Business Development and Strategic Partnerships and would later recommend her as CEO.[9] In 2014, Wong took the unusual step of deriding a previous employee who complained about the circumstances surrounding his termination in an AMA.[10] One month later, Reddit board member and YC president Sam Altman announced that Wong was leaving after being unable to garner support for a proposal to move the Reddit office from San Francisco to Daly City.[11] Reportedly, Wong "stopped showing up at the office" when the board ignored his demand.[12] Wong, who thought newer employees would prefer to work in a less expensive area, stated that before the disagreement he had considered leaving due to an abundance of stress.[13]

Wow, Yishan actually replied that to a comment saying "Got any connections to get awkwardtheturtle removed from Reddit?".

I'm surprised he's pushing for what I thought Reddit considered as harassment.

TIL that awkwardtheturtle was perma'd. I know he got removed from a sub for making a flippant comment about men, but what did he get perma'd for?

Weeb? Skyrim and elder scrolls are American made video games based on European lore and history. I had too google the weeb word. I actually don’t like anime I just happened to like medieval fantasy genres which is pretty different than what you are suggesting and it was developed in the USA by a USA based studio. Learn what words mean and what about the subjects before you start talking shit you look like a 12 year old little boy btw get the frick out of here you little c*nt
