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
