the hand-wringing mods

Daily reminder that this is a currency symbol:  

Their website FAQ's:

"How do we know this isn’t a money grab? I have personally donated $xxx to our Booster.com fundraiser. We are filing as a 501c4 organization. We’ve already put up a billboard. If this was a money grab then we’d be potentially putting ourselves in VERY hot water by doing it this way."

They actually put 'xxx.' Wtf.

Copy paste whoops!

Strange. I similar thing happened with Bernie's subreddit. This election is fixed. Where the hell is Hillary's support or sub?

R/Politics

sad, but true

R/HillaryClinton

Yeah he's not trying to hide that.

Apparently he just announced that he's "resigning" (with his /u/TehDonald account anyway. He's still got /u/TheModelRedditor which he's used to moderate there before.)

The Nimble America site is a scam and it's a scam designed by CTR to entrap people.

Why would I guess this? Hillary's been over charging people that donate to her campaign... but does it in $25 amounts and keeps the total under $100 so they get don't investigated for fraud by the banks. She's bleeding a shit ton of money and is getting desperate.

Milo may have be in on the scam. Or just a dumbass.

Same thing with Teh_Donald. Shill, idiot, or some mixture.

lil-z was likely just neglect.

The_Donald needs full transparency to avoid this shit in the future so regular users can catch it sooner. KotakuInAction has public mod logs and for what little I remember it worked out well in keeping the mods in check.

LOL. I love it.
