MODERATORS
TBF a lot of the backlash against the protest on reddit also boils down to "it doesn't matter to me, so it's not needed". Fact is if moderation is done right you don't notice it. I add new t-shirt bot spam sites to auto-mod the second I come across them, for example, so they only ever get posted once.
Reddit has had css since before the Digg migration.
This is like how some companies view their IT teams:
The "backlash" is from the users who want no moderation so they can say whatever shit they want with no repercussions, and those are the ones who will be the most active once the mods leave and the decent people after when the assholes chase them off. Not a good way to attract advertisers.
