ReFriender Discontinued

[Sp1cyryan]

Here is what the reddit blackout will usher in:

Spez will stop users being allowed to private any sub or delete it, he will also crack down on the power admins currently have.

This will happen slowly but it will happen, and the reason it will happen is because this time it's about money.

If only we had a Rooks-like figure here to scold you and your need to go off topic and wildly speculate in every thread.

Then all it needs it providing actual facts.


which btw, found some reddit channel also being set private as well, even youtube reddit for example. ^^;


also, nowadays there r ways to generate money without being that greedy. Those who still does probably still stuck with how things does in the past & haven't gained wisdom on how things works currently.


And another thing to wonder... does Refriender made exist with one of concern being money issue? since personally not sure how it would relate or help.


FF14 itself does take advantage of em being the current popular MMORPG with their cash shop, example with the recent released hideous demon dog mount there, from what i gather on discord & facebook groups, ppl seems to love it. Not all probably love being lured by mere virtual presentation, but me for one... didn't regret getting few that I do find worth my while on mog shop. ofc, there's still that temptation "gotta have 'em all", but so far... can still manage that urge. lol

The point I'm making here is that putting your trust in a corporation and helping them to become a monopoly is stupid, especially when the foundation of why the corporation was built is money.

People invested in Sam Bankman-Fried:

Here is what he said:
“Ya. Hehe. I had to be. It’s what reputations are made of, to some extent. I feel bad for those guys who get f—ed by it, by this dumb game we woke westerners play where we say all the right shibboleths and so everyone likes us.”

Basically what he is saying is he said and did the things that his target audience wanted to hear or believe, to fool them. Because people fall for it if you lie to them, if you tell them the sweet little lies they want to hear they will take you at face value.

Spez of Reddit, did the exact same thing. He acted and said the things his unpaid moderators wanted to hear because he needed them to build his corporation up, and now he is taking the company public and now needs to pander to investor millionaire and billionaires he is going full corpo talking like a capitalist and removing moderators that oppose him.

Jack of Twitter did the exact same thing, and is now a billionaire in some desert island drinking cocktails.

I like Reddit, I like Discord I use them for specific things. However putting all your eggs in one basket and allowing them to become a monopoly is bad for you, it's bad for the things you like and ultimately they will crap on you when it's time to pander to investors and sell out.

Forums are good, discord is good, reddit is good. I like forums because they are separate and because billionaires don't have any interest in them.

Money corrupts, more money corrupts faster.
