Excerpt from interview:
| With a site like reddit, which is the greater challenge - preventing spam from clogging the tubes or preventing power users from overtaking the site? | |
| Spammers. They suck. The trickier nuisance is when well-intentioned publishers 'spam' the system by submitting naively. In the best case, we can educate them, since it's not spam in the traditional sense - the content is actually decent or even good - just poorly submitted. Like when someone creates a new account and submits 20 links in an hour to their personal blog -- they're a part of the problem, but can be rehabilitated. | |
