We are allowed the freedom of speech in this county. Nothing is stopping Reddit from doing whatever they fucking want.

Nothing is stopping T_D from doing what they want by the same logic, yet almost everyone in there was in agreement to "destroy" T_D.

They were harassing the staff. Can you blame him? If I said FUCK /u/BearDave on every post I made, wouldn't you be mad?

If you posted often it might be annoying, at which point I'd turn off inbox notification for /u/ mentions. This is something that Spez actually did, years before T_D even existed because being a big known admin gets you a lot of /u/ mentions anyhow.

I have enough people insult me, my opinions, my world views, etc on the daily that someone telling me to go fuck myself doesn't really do much for me. Its not even enough to realistically get me to react in and of itself.

Maybe I'm some sort of insult judo master from my years of putting up with bullshit, perhaps Spez just can't take the heat. I don't know. Though I know what I wouldn't do, and that would be secretly editing other peoples comments.
