We're twitter now?

Maybe I'm being unrealistic, but senpai, why couldn't Victoria be the Talent Relations fellow?

She's more popular around here than blowjobs and a sundae.

[–]PLxFTW 25ポイント26ポイント  (8子コメント)

That makes the most sense, just have Victoria be Talent Relations.

[–]BillNyesEyeGuy 19ポイント20ポイント  (7子コメント)

Maybe there's a pay cut? Weren't they also trying to get everyone to SF? Maybe Victoria was unable/unwilling to make the move. We don't know, and probably never will, but reddit has been pretty quick to judge based on speculation.

[–]drmrsanta 10ポイント11ポイント  (1子コメント)

But that's bullshit. Weren' t there AMAs that were scheduled and had to be cancelled because she couldn't help? If she couldn't move, or didn't want a pay cut, they could work with her to find a replacement, get them trained in and ready to take over, and then let her go.

[–]jambox888 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

Yeah I agree it looked like she got fired on a whim. I don't know how it went down, of course, but if I have a team of people and I have to phase out a role, but that someone's put in a real good shift for me so far, then I sure as hell wouldn't tell her to clear her desk that day. Either find something else for them or give them decent notice at least.

[–]cold_iron_76 5ポイント6ポイント  (1子コメント)

Which is a pretty stupid fucking policy. Yeah, because SF, not New York is the fucking hotbed of celebrities willing to do AMAs. One fucking employee and they couldn't let her work out of New York? Jesus, that is the one thing I don't get, what company in their right mind makes a call like that. No physical representation in NYC? Lmao.

[–]DeadeyeDuncan 0ポイント1ポイント  (1子コメント)

She had a post on /r/centuryclub where she said she didn't know why she was fired, so I doubt its any of those reasons.

[–]BillNyesEyeGuy 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

She didn't know why, but you can rule out those possibilities...

I think you missed the point of my post entirely.

[–]fastgr -1ポイント0ポイント  (0子コメント)

Wasn't the reason she was fired because she didn't want to shoot some promotional videos for AMA?

[–]dangerdark 41ポイント42ポイント  (5子コメント)

You should be more confused about how he said Reddit is stepping back from handling AMAs then in the exact same post he says that there is a new team handling them as well as hiring another person who sounds like they would basically fill Victoria's old position.

It makes no sense.

[–]MissMaster -2ポイント-1ポイント  (4子コメント)

We're still introducing and sourcing talent for AMAs, just now giving the moderators the autonomy to conduct them themselves.

[–]dangerdark 4ポイント5ポイント  (3子コメント)

Right. I take it you don't realize you're pointing out the hypocrisy in stating that they're going hands off when that really isn't the case, correct?

[–]MissMaster -1ポイント0ポイント  (2子コメント)

She didn't say they were 'going hands off'. They are creating a team to attract more high-profile users to reddit and to get them to do AMAs as well as become regular contributors. They simply won't have a position (i.e. Victoria) to facilitate the individual AMA, that will be the responsibilities of the mods of /r/IAmA.

i.e. they are going to try to attract celebrities to reddit, but not babysit their usage.

[–]dangerdark 2ポイント3ポイント  (1子コメント)

Look, either they're going to have less involvement or not. They can't doublespeak their way into having both. Either way you cut it they are being disingenuous at best.

[–]billndotnet 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

Just making a guess here, but the team they're hiring will be brought on with the explicit instruction to conduct AMAs in a manner that perhaps Victoria wasn't willing to, having an established and firm opinion on the impact that monetizing AMAs would have on the community and the quality of the content.

[–]Half_The_Battle 15ポイント16ポイント  (1子コメント)

Maybe I'm being unrealistic, but why couldn't Victoria be the Talent Relations fellow?

They might have offered it to her and she didn't want it. She might have been opposed to the way her job was being forced to change. She might have been stealing things from the office. It is likely we will never know why she was fired, so it makes little sense to keep bringing it up. She is the only one who can tell us.

[–]AnOnlineHandle 11ポイント12ポイント  (0子コメント)

but why couldn't Victoria be the Talent Relations fellow?

Because she was fired for reasons we don't know of?

[–]zebrake2010 1ポイント2ポイント  (2子コメント)

/u/chooter is even more popular than Nutella.

[–]Secrets7 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

Because she did something to warrant getting fired.

[–]Treysef 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

There was a change made a little while ago and now all reddit employees must be based out of San Francisco. Seeing as Victoria was the only admin left in New York, I'm thinking this had at least a little bit to do with it.

Calling Ellen Senpai

She's nobody's Senpai now! And I'll never be her Kohai!

[–]ChrisVolkoff 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Yeah, why didn't they just ask her to take on a different role? Unless she opposed to that..

[–]FreakinKrazy 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Well maybe...

[–]GlobeTrottingWeasels 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

I dunno man, I do like a nice sloppy sundae from time to time

And blowjobs are really nice

[–]QWERTY_licious 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

I think this is an interesting point, how did Twitter get so many celebrity users? How did Facebook? Did they get teams together to recruit famous people to join? Or did these people join because of an overwhelming amount of society joining in and found they had a new method to reach and interact with the public?

[–]JesusPimpHand 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Was she too good at handling them? Was she so good at doing things for these old people that they didn't want to learn how to do it thenselves? We wanna know.... Please show mee-eee

[–]j0rdon -1ポイント0ポイント  (0子コメント)

Because she didn't want to monetize AMA's.

[–]Slut_Nuggets -1ポイント0ポイント  (0子コメント)

Hey now, let's pump the brakes here a second. I like Victoria too but blowjobs? I like blowjobs more than oxygen. That's a tough one to beat

[–]bailz -1ポイント0ポイント  (0子コメント)

I mean, i would agree with the blowjob part or the sundae part, but blowjobs AND a sundae? At the same time? This one is too close to call.

[–]muzakx 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

It's strictly a business move. The Reddit admins removed themselves as liasons between Celebs/Politians/etc. and AMAs. So if anything negative happens during an AMA, they are not held responsible, because they were not involved.

It's just another step in the corporatization and white washing of Reddit.

[–]10per 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

It is possible she was fired for cause, and not offered any new position because of that.

[–]brak_obama -1ポイント0ポイント  (1子コメント)

She only got popular after she was fired, though.

[–]halfar 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

not among the mods, who are the real important people in this fiasco.

[–]Aikidi -1ポイント0ポイント  (0子コメント)

A ton of users didn't even know who she was until she was fired, and now she's popular with them because "fuck the admins."

[–]hierocles -1ポイント0ポイント  (0子コメント)

Because she was fired and companies don't typically rehire people they just fired.

Get over it.
