550With the bullshit with T_D. i've already reduced my time on reddit.
551I'm thinking of leaving entirely =/. They've impacted my enjoyment of the site that much.

1603What is the DB?
1604mannoslimmin
1605@x_minus_one no. CTRs american volunteers were unpaid. They paid foreigners because they didn't believe americans deserved jobs. My CTR cheques were awesome
1606norsefenrir 4
1607Issue is you can't prove that it was a one-time joke though. We have no idea if it's been done before, or if it'll be done again or whatever.
