Damn that’s just strange. Reddits explanation still doesn’t really explain what “community points” actually do. I don’t really get what their angle is with this.

Why would they do a 180 (from recent policy) and talk about how subreddits should be semi-independent? And are they really planning on making “community points” based off if you moderate and post, rather than paying for them?

PR, PR, PR. They have to tell all the little sheep to forget about that noisy kerfuffle and pile of sheared wool down at the end of the paddock. thats all in the past now. Only look forward to the new and shiny there's nothing else to see, move along! The wolf has your best interest at heart!

Monopoly money for services - if Reddit decides the games over money & board goes back in the box. 😐
