Am I a redditor simply because I use reddit? If so, I am also a Wikipedia-er, a Google-r, a hacker-news-er, and even a never-never-gawker-ever-er. I would caution readers of this statement to remember that use of reddit does not automatically create an identity that supercedes the identity created by any use of any online space. I'm a Facebook-er and you could argue that Facebook does what reddit and Hubski do : curate content for me.

A website-er who identifies as such should not do so simply because they use the website.

I identify as a hubskier first, no matter how much I use reddit. My participation here is a result of Hubski only and how I feel and think about it. It has nothing to do with reddit and frankly, I view and use the two as very different animals.

Reddit is my cheap and dirty entertainment. Hubski is my friends.
