    Sounds like Violentacres is the second biggest troll on the web.

Amen. I can't believe how scummy gawker is. Such trash.

That might be an insult to trash. Reading Adrian Chen scares me what can be passed off as "journalism". I know he hates Reddit as much as SRS does, but why did he only go after Violentacrez?

I don't know if he hates reddit so much as loves page-views. And going after VA is an obvious choice, he is a major figure head and symbol of the creepy parts of reddit. I don't think there is any other user whose name is so intertwined with 'offensive' or 'creepy' content.

I'm not much of a redditor, didn't really know about violentacrez prior to this post and this one one but from what I've gathered it seems like a complete dick move by this "journalist".

Not cool.
