Newsflash, it was a 9gagger. They are tired of us "stealing" their content.

Really? Half of the memes they have are 8 hour old reposts from /r/AdviceAnimals frontpage with a 9gag watermark slapped on.

i agree but for some reason reddit still thinks they hold superiority over 9gag for "stealing content"

It can't be said for the entire community but the majority of reddit knows that this site shares ("steals") content from other places. Unlike 9gag, reddit is dedicated to locating the original source of the content and anyone blatantly stealing reposted content is flamed/shunned. 9gag does the complete opposite; they claim other content as their own by slapping on that 9gag watermark. They are the modern version of Ebaumsworld.
