    It’s amazing how inept spez has proven to be, and that’s after most people had developed a pretty negative opinion of him. The CEO of a community-driven company really cannot be an anti-social megalomaniac and have the company survive.

      Is behavior is crazy and dumb. He could lie about not thinking it’s unreasonable but accusing Christian of blackmail has just fueled this fire

      eh unfortunately I think he’ll be fine and so will reddit. The public has a tendency to forget these things pretty quick. Hasbro did things just a few short months ago many would have thought unthinkable or the end of them. But people just forgot and moved on.

        It they had just kept their mouths shut and taken their lumps, it would have blown over by now.

        But the ego on Spez is apparently incapable of tolerating the fact that someone on the internet might disagree with him, so he keeps doubling down and making everything exponentially worse. To the point where people like me, who couldn’t give two bits about 3rd party Reddit apps or API or pricing, are so disgusted by their behavior that they look for alternatives.
