yeah, but what's slashdot's percentage of the market in comparison to reddit (I actually have no idea)? the site will still function, I'm sure - with the amount of websites that rely solely on it for content it's almost in a "too big to fail" caliber - but I can see a lot of user base moving off of reddit to find their next fix awfully quickly.

And I don't say that to disparage those people (it probably sounds like I am), it's just that humans act very differently as a mob than they do as individuals.
