That’s a recent quote from Reddit’s VP of community, Laura Nestler. Here’s more of it: This week, Reddit has been telling protesting moderators that if they keep their communities private, the company will take action against them. Any actions could happen as soon as this afternoon.

    Honestly in my opinion Huffman isn’t the brightest bulb in the bunch, he also seems to have a problem with understanding the consequences of his actions. He thinks that we’re stupid, he also thinks that users will stay on Reddit no matter what. I’m sure some will after all there were a small minority of users that stayed on digg right up until the bitter end. However a large majority of users aren’t going to keep up voting and posting there as the platform slowly devolves into a spammy mess. Maybe he thinks that that won’t happen, after all they do have the audacity to think they can reliably prosecute “ban evasion” when in reality they can’t, especially for bots.
