1 | <Andrewdsmith> you messaged me last night but I was away | |
2 | ||
3 | <hueypriest> oh yeah | |
4 | ||
5 | <hueypriest> just wanted to discuss srs etc | |
6 | ||
7 | <Andrewdsmith> yeah, I figured that | |

12 | <hueypriest> saw your comment about throwing you guys to the wolves | |
13 | <Andrewdsmith> I can understand if you are trying to amount a shit ton of evidence against them before you move | |
14 | <hueypriest> and I completely understand why you'd feel that way | |
15 | <Andrewdsmith> but that is really how most of the default mods feel | |
16 | <hueypriest> yep | |
17 | <hueypriest> there are a lot of misconceptions around what happened with the policy change | |
18 | <Andrewdsmith> did you see their private subreddits? | |
19 | <Andrewdsmith> I think that would be a good place to look | |
20 | <hueypriest> yes. there's nothing really there | |
21 | <Andrewdsmith> I can understand getting rid of all of those subreddits | |
22 | <hueypriest> (please do not repeat that) | |
23 | <Andrewdsmith> I personally agree with you | |
24 | <Andrewdsmith> about removing the borderline subreddits because they make reddit look bad | |
25 | <hueypriest> they made a bunch of those private subreddits to scare people | |
26 | <Andrewdsmith> to the media | |
27 | <Andrewdsmith> I figured that | |
28 | <Andrewdsmith> it is like my r/secretcabal | |
29 | <hueypriest> yes | |
30 | <Andrewdsmith> I just think that you guys folded too quickly to them and now they are strengthened in their efforts to destroy reddit | |
31 | <hueypriest> disagree | |
32 | <hueypriest> we planned to make the change early on friday | |
33 | <Andrewdsmith> I figured that it was a long time coming | |
34 | <hueypriest> and it's complicated, but yes, long time coming | |
35 | <Andrewdsmith> I think it was a good move | |
36 | <hueypriest> the timing is unfortunate because it makes them feel more empowered | |
37 | <Andrewdsmith> yeah | |
38 | <hueypriest> i do too | |
39 | <hueypriest> should have done it long ago | |
40 | <Andrewdsmith> brb | |
41 | <Andrewdsmith> I agree | |
42 | <Andrewdsmith> and there are tons that are poping up | |
43 | <Andrewdsmith> I tried to say that when they had the reddit alien waving to pedobear | |
44 | <hueypriest> yeah | |
45 | <Andrewdsmith> I know that you can proxy and have ip changing | |
46 | <hueypriest> right | |
47 | <Andrewdsmith> but I think that the majority of the SRS users aren't that smart | |
48 | <Andrewdsmith> and I figure that you are watching the ips of the main ones | |
49 | <Andrewdsmith> but us being left in the cold makes us nervous about this | |
50 | <Andrewdsmith> anyway you can give me info on who leaked the r/modtalk screeshots? | |
51 | <hueypriest> yes, we leave you in the cold far too much | |
52 | <Andrewdsmith> that seriously worried all of the default mods | |
53 | <hueypriest> but it's ahrd because everything we say recently winds up being public | |
54 | <Andrewdsmith> yeah, I know | |
55 | <hueypriest> *hard | |
56 | <hueypriest> point in case | |
57 | <hueypriest> waiting to talk to QG | |
58 | <hueypriest> about that | |
59 | <hueypriest> and yes, i know who it is | |
60 | <Andrewdsmith> it's either laure or VA to me | |
61 | <hueypriest> we actually feel much better able to handle any heat from SRS etc now | |
62 | <hueypriest> kind of like a forrest fire | |
63 | <Andrewdsmith> burn a bit | |
64 | <Andrewdsmith> so that there is nothing to spread | |
65 | <hueypriest> we did a controlled burn of the questionable stuff (whjich we should have done a long time ago) | |
66 | <hueypriest> correct | |
67 | <hueypriest> and unlike srs, we've actually workled with the fbi etc | |
68 | <Andrewdsmith> thats awesome | |
69 | <Andrewdsmith> can I tell the other mods that? | |
70 | <hueypriest> and i'm sure they are getting pretty fed up with all their frivolous tips | |
71 | <Andrewdsmith> yeah | |
72 | <Andrewdsmith> I have to head to the office really quick | |
73 | <Andrewdsmith> I'll be back in like 30 | |
74 | <Andrewdsmith> thank you for updating me | |
75 | <hueypriest> the fbi is not interested in following up leads of 17 year olds who's boyfriends post shit on the internet | |
76 | <Andrewdsmith> and I'll do my best to calm the mods | |
77 | <hueypriest> great | |
78 | <Andrewdsmith> without telling them what all has been said | |
79 | <hueypriest> i'm glad to answer any questions i can | |
80 | <Andrewdsmith> thanks | |
81 | <hueypriest> in modtalk irc later | |
82 | <hueypriest> thanks talk alter |
