Absolutely. It was astounding how it changed once redditgifts was purchased. And they would both absolutely agree. Even weffey stopped being on my side when I had constructive criticism. The culture went from being all about the community to where, I was told, redditgifts upper echelon's responsibility was not to the community or moderators but now solely towards the CEO. That is not a message that any of those people would come up with on their own. I just opened secretsanta and noticed that the only external mod that was there before me quit sometime after me as well. Well, I did not actually quit, I was demodded and banned after I would not stop bitching about the lack of communication. Dante is still there though!
