What part is not true?

And we will have to agree to disagree I guess. Here's how I would summarize some parts of it:

- The moderators didn't want to completely censor or remove good faith threads, they just wanted to contain it within megathreads. this is normal on reddit. I disagreed with this and thought it would be better to have some threads on front page but limit the number.

- The users had wild accusations and conspiracy theories (https://old.reddit.com/r/Wordpress/comments/1g4ahoq/is_that_...)

- The mods didn't make an attempt to censor r/wpdrama from being talked about, they redirected users to it

- The users were fundamentally angry and accusatory from the get go which made it even more difficult to come up with solutions

- This is not how I remember old reddit nor the old internet. Back then we would have a civil disucssion with the mods about what things should be allowed or not allowed.

The mods could have literally done nothing and the majority of users (as proven by the unofficial poll) would have approved. The mods didn’t know how to moderate without being little dictators. Once they realized this they gave up and ran away.
