    This website's saving grace is that it's fairly local and in AH you can get to know posters' personalities whereas reddit's community is too big. Also this website is over modded.

    I think they were playing along to influence the next chapter of the story. You can see in part 2 of it the comments from part one actually influenced the story. Its a bit interactive which is cool and only makes it more real and therefore creepy. But I don't think they believe its actually happening :p

    So you prefer the extreme level of bigotry seen on Reddit?

    Reddit is undermoderated.

    The only good subs, such as AskHistorians, are heavily moderated.

    Never. What makes it worse is seeing a bunch of stupid comments on youtube videos saying "Le Reddit Army is here!" It's so cringeworthy.

    Reddit is one of the most liberal sites around. :confused:

    You must be viewing some very questionable sub reddits.

    This is the problem. Outsiders see Reddit as ostensibly liberal - because of two or three issues (eg homosexuality, drugs).

    Yet in reality it is a cesspool of racism, sexism, and all sorts of bigotry. Look at /r/AdviceAnimals for example - a huge subreddit where racist posts quickly rise to the top. AskReddit is another good example. Hatred of groups is so prevalent - blacks for Americans and Gypsies - and also Muslims for Europeans. It's as if the Holocaust never happened.

    National subreddits - especially /r/Ireland, and to a lesser extent ones such as /r/Europe, regularly exhibit vast amounts of blind bigotry.

    I am not an outsider to Reddit, none of the above is true in my experience. There are small amounts of racism which are usually down voted by the community.

    I think its 7 yeah.

    Just looked it up because he died some of the scenes in the movie will be CGI Paul Walker. Little bit strange imo.
