From the article, emphasis mine:

“Will this undermine most of what makes IAmA special? Probably,” the moderators wrote. “But Reddit leadership has all the funds they need to hire people to perform those extra tasks we formerly undertook as volunteer moderators, and we’d be happy to collaborate with them if they choose to do so.”

I think they’re wrong. I don’t think Reddit has the funds.

oh no, anyway

Nice post, but can we get back to talking about Rampart?
