I PERSONALLY won't remove the post because the community likes the post, but /r/Technology shouldn't become the dumping ground/circlejerk-central every time an admin does something that the users don't agree with. That being said, the post has been locked for now. Had I removed the post, we would be inundated in accusations of being complicit with censorship -- had we let the post continue unabated, we would be inundated with countless modmails complaining about the post. You must understand the position that posts like this put the mod team in. They set us up such that we are the villains no matter what happens, we simply can't win. Have some empathy and let this blow over without calling for blood (ours or Spez's).

I understand this rustled a LOT of jimmies. Removing him as CEO won't accomplish anything, nor will circlejerking about it. It's done, it's over. Spez apologized and the only thing that remains is some safeguard to prevent similar trolling again.

Edit: sending me threatening and harassing messages doesn't help anyone or fix this issue.
