> vocal minority That's interesting because it mirrors Ellen Pao's attitude: > But Ms. Pao says that the most virulent detractors on the site are a vocal minority, and that the vast majority of Reddit users are uninterested in what unfolded over the past 48 hours. - (source: http://www.nytimes.com/2015/07/04/technology/reddit-moderato...) ... yet here we are with over 100K signatures and quickly rising. When your largest subreddits and influential content creators take a big chunk of the site down, it's not a vocal minority with zero ramifications - it's you about to become the next Digg. This isn't an issue for Reddit to take lightly. If content creators pack up shop, Reddit becomes just another cat photo and yesterday's news dump like your facebook feed (read: low quality content). Users will end up where ever your cool content creators defect to. |

Also, if you're talking about /r/funny and other default subreddits content creator, I think they will easily be replaced.
