this smells like reddit getting desperate
Considering they're DMing certain Reddit users (their most active users, according to the DM) about being given a chance buy Reddit stock during the IPO (that's not strictly PR speak; they're actually setting aside some stock for their users), that's entirely possible.
They offered it to me. I've not been on reddit since the API issue kicked off.
Yeah, they sent it to me, too. For users, it's based on total karma. For mods, it's based on total mod actions taken.
Over 200K karma I read somewhere else
Well fuck, I had well over 200k karma. Why didn't I get a buy-in offer I could tell them to fuck off for?
