Friendly reminder of when spez, many years ago, literally just changed a user’s comment, and then went on to not be immediately fired over this insane breach of everything to do with customer relations.
Was that while he was a moderator of /r/jailbait?
Spez is a piece of shit, but wasn’t that a joke? Like other mods added him as a mod?
At the time you could add someone as a mod without their say so. and apparantly thats what happened with Spez.
Doesn’t change the fact that he didn’t instantly remove himself but left it there for years.
Oh damn I didn’t realize he was a mod for years. I figured it was like a day or something.
You can only be on a mod team if you are invited and you accept.
That was not always the case, and was only set up that way after the CNN expose. Fuck Spez left, right, and up the middle, but he only was only listed as a mod on /r/jailbait at a time when you could freely add anybody as a mod to your subreddit.
TIL. Thank you.
Excellent point. I’m sure the guy who edited user comments couldn’t have un-modded himself at any given point.
Wouldn’t that mean that he was likely sent CSAM - and possibly didn’t report it?
That would indicate that there would be no plausible deniability about the trading rings being run by the mods and users.
Reddit would not have removed r/jailbait if it hadn’t made CNN. R/picsofdeadkids was up for long after that.
Not for much longer. Gawker doxxed Violentacrez shortly after, and I believe he shut down all his subs when that happened.
You mean Michael Brutsch.
