As much as Steve has already shown he's willing to lie outright (especially we characterizing his talks with the Apollo Dev) I really can't put it past Reddit to lie about the mods "encouraging" porn posts.
r/mildlyinteresting did not encourage it, and Reddit lied about that, and their removal and suspension was revoked by a different admin than the one who removed and suspended them. Here is the post, "The Reddit Admins are lying - r/MildlyInteresting did NOT allow or encourage users to post ANY sexually explicit content, see draft of now-deleted announcement":
Given how that's been going, and how that subreddit apparently got caught in the crossfire, it kind of makes you wonder what's going on behind the scenes at Reddit. With a different person revoking it ~~and apologising~~, it kind of seems like the admins aren't really communicating to each other, and that some are putting out fires that the others are lighting.
EDIT: No Apology, just an explanation.
I can't imagine that everyone in the company is like spez.
Yet disorder and ambiguous goals/requirements by management tends to have a domino effect.
I wonder how many people were hanging around hoping to cash out after the IPO and are realizing it's not going to go as well as they thought because they're being led by spiteful idiots.
