Since there was no subreddit for Star Control yet, I decided to make one. Make sure to subscribe if you are a redditor.

Subreddit for Star Control

Re: Subreddit for Star Control
Reddit? Isn't that the place with all the rampant paedophilia and misogyny?
Re: Subreddit for Star Control
I believe you are thinking of the website whose url is found by removing nel from channel, and attaching this to the end of a 4, concluding with a .org. I have no idea if Reddit shares any of those... features.
Re: Subreddit for Star Control
I've never used reddit, I'm more of a tumblr user. I'm curious to know how many people on this site use reddit...
Re: Subreddit for Star Control
No, I know what 4chan is. I've never been to Reddit but it suddenly bounced up in several of my feeds a few days ago. Quating what I saw pasted on several Google+ and blogfeeds i follow. Quoting and spoilering for trigger warning I guess. Last I heard most of the content was removed, but it was there as recently as last weeks and even though the illegal stuff is gone there's a lot of questionable subreddits still.Dabir wrote:I believe you are thinking of the website whose url is found by removing nel from channel, and attaching this to the end of a 4, concluding with a .org.

reddit [http://www.reddit.com/] is a social website that allows its users to share links to content on the internet and post comments about the links. This enables not only the sharing of content (photographs, videos, websites, and so on) but also the discussion of said content.
reddit is massively popular [http://blog.reddit.com/2012/01/2-billion-beyond.html], especially with young people [http://en.reddit.com/r/misc/comments/ne ... ey_in_pie/].
reddit is split into subcommunities known as "subreddits", meaning that while reddit exists as a website, it consists as the sum of its subcommunities that people can subscribe to and participate in by means of sharing and commenting as aforementioned.
Unfortunately, the reddit community as a whole also harbors pedophiles and distributors of child pornography, including a man who goes by the name Tessorro [http://www.reddit.com/user/tessorro] and runs a subreddit called "preteen_girls"[http://www.reddit.com/r/preteen_girls/c ... an/c3pxuv8]
The main purveyor of child porn on reddit is Violentacrez, who was the former leader of the "jailbait" subreddit, before Anderson Cooper's report [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VuMdQRRL ... re=related] got it shut down: [http://www.reddit.com/user/violentacrez]
A list of Jailbait (underage porn) forums which have sprung up to replace it that are currently on reddit:
truejailbait
gaolbait
GirlsinSchoolUniforms
LegalTeens
niggerjailbait
Thenewjailbait
RealGirls
trapbait
/r/jailbait is shut down now, but the traffic statistics [http://i.imgur.com/jvNpg.png] posted by Violentacrez [http://www.reddit.com/r/TheoryOfReddit/ ... rjailbait/] from its heydays are interesting. The dip in mid August is when admins temporarily closed the subreddit, and the spike on September 30th is when Anderson Cooper talked about it. The numbers after the temporary shut down are abnormally low, as would be expected. But prior to that, they were getting about 30,000 unique visitors each day.
When r/jailbait was open, it had a message on the sidebar asking young girls to submit pics to their jailbait gone wild subreddit, which still exists, and even wants these 'jailbait' girls to get verified before submitting photos. You're also told to "Be respectful. Don't insult the ones brave enough to submit photos / videos".
The owners of reddit know there is active trading of child porn on their forums, and refuse to do anything about it. Further, Reddit's cofounder simply dismisses the issue and blames the exploited children whose pictures are being traded: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OXZYvrue1BE]
The inaction of reddit's administrators has been a frequent topic, part of that being Violentacrez's shockingly close relationship with them.
Violentacrez's Twitter account [https://twitter.com/#!/violentacrez] seems like a good example of this.
Krispykrackers [http://twitter.com/krispykrackers] (head of advertising and the community helpline at reddit)
Hueypriest https://twitter.com/#!/hueypriest] (reddit's general manager) and
Chromakode [https://twitter.com/#!/chromakode] (developer) all follow violentacrez.
So does Jedberg [https://twitter.com/#!/jedberg] (former administrator),
KeyserSosa [https://twitter.com/#!/KeyserSosa] (former lead developer) and
MikeSchiraldi [https://twitter.com/#!/MikeSchiraldiraldi] (another former developer type).
If you view their past tweets, you'll see that Violentacrez has regularly been in direct, public contact with them.
In 2008, r/jailbait received the most votes in reddit's "Best Community" contest [http://www.reddit.com/r/bestof/comments ... nt_here_w/], with SuicideWatch taking a distant second, receiving about half as many votes.
Another interesting fact is that Violentacrez has the third highest amount of karma [http://www.karmawhores.net/violentacrez] on all of reddit for submitted links. Reddit can't get enough of the guy.
Are you sick to your stomach yet? The list of child pornography subreddits continues: (all subreddits listed below are not safe for viewing)
"Preteen Girls"
"Male Jailbait"
"Jailbait Junkies"
"Asian Jailbait"
"Young Porn"
Other awful Reddit things:
A Pedophile's Confession
A subreddit called "Raping Women"
"Beating Women"
A subreddit called "Lolicon" (cartoon drawings of naked children)[/url]
A subreddit called "Pics of Dead Kids"

Re: Subreddit for Star Control
I in general try to remain out of the biggest subreddits. My Reddit experience improved greatly after removing /r/funny, /r/atheism, /r/pics, /r/videos and /r/wtf from my subscriptions. It's easier to get some real conversation and debate going on by following the smaller subreddits that specialize in some area. Then, if you are in for the memes, then the default front page is all yours.

Re: Subreddit for Star Control
Generally speaking, such sites are not child porn, just a bit suggestive in that direction. Accusing these people of publishing child porn when in fact they were not is very dangerous. You could get sued for that.Lukipela wrote:If you wanna go hunting for child porn that's your thing dudeAngelfish wrote:i'd have to see or know about the actual material before I judge on this issue tbh![]()
