I would just like to know the thought process behind not having a backup plan following the termination of a key employee. I don't expect anyone to say why Victoria was fired, that's none of my business, but there had to be a reason why that information was not communicated to the rest of the community and certainly the AMA participants of that day.

In his statement /u/kn0thing stated that AMAs would go on as scheduled, but the fact of the matter is that the AMAs scheduled to go on that day were disrupted due to Victoria's absence and the entire kerfuffle was created when an AMA participant was not being contacted and was forced to message the mods to find out what was going on, which triggered their reaction of "We don't know, what's going on?"

You acknowledge "mistakes were made", but I'd really like to know who made the mistakes and what their rationale was at the time for doing so.

It's sad when I'm being encouraged to think that the best case scenario is merely incompetence. Did people responsible for the firing not know there were AMAs going on that day? Did they not know who the AMAs were with and as a result were not able to reach out? Why didn't they know?

These are some pretty basic questions that need to be answered and resolved if you want to re-build trust with the community.

EDIT guys... guys... /u/kn0thing is TRYING to answer my question honestly, please stop downvoting him.

We were prepared to handle the AMAs that day, but we did a terrible job communicating the transition.

(from another post)

I shared on defaultmods on Thursday (but I should have messaged all the affected mods as soon as it happened). I made the mistake of first posting this publicly on r/outoftheloop instead of a bigger sitewide post.

I was stupid. I’d been talking with mods all day on subreddits I thought were restricted (only approved submitters can post, but anyone can view), not private (only approved people can view) and based on all the positive feedback I’d gotten, thought the tide was turning with the entire reddit community. And then I made glib comments that were on public subs in a bad attempt to be playful and have since edited the worst offender to acknowledge how stupid it was and remind myself to not be that dumb again. Ultimately, to 99% of our users, my comment history just showed a guy being stupid, and I’m sorry for that.

Victoria was more than an employee to you - she was a loyal friend. You made a glib comment on a public subreddit that mocked the fact that one of your friends lost her job. You went to her very small, intimate, family wedding less than six weeks before. You've hugged it out and had late-night conversations. You were friends.

And then her loss of her job was "popcorn"?

That was not just a glib comment, but one made that mocked your friend's situation, in public, to millions.

I believe you have been a good person, but I don't think you've been acting much like one recently.

Let's not forget that it wasn't just a job. It was something Victoria was truly passionate about. It came through in every post she made. She didn't just lose her job, she lost something she loved

What did that twitter say? It's not working for me.

You can say "it's business" but when you pour your heart into it, and others do too, it really hurts to lose it.
