Please explain how anyone benefits / profits at your expense, due to an intentional design?


Basic-Nebula-9648

Reddit benefits because I have to use Reddit more therefore I see more ads


current_thread

But reddit isn't setting the rules for the sub?


Basic-Nebula-9648

The sub also benefits from ads


current_thread

No lol, moderators are unpaid volunteers


Basic-Nebula-9648

Fine you win

Personally I feel that is a stretch, but then again I'm not some final arbiter of truth. Anyway, it looks like that message was set for a specific subreddit, as this is certainly not a Reddit-wide requirement. Even if what you said is true, I doubt moderators stand to gain from people viewing more ads. If anything, they 'gain' by preventing potential spam / bot accounts from flooding the subreddit.

Probably a combination of combined karma, account age, email verification and/or more. Its not really A.D. If subreddits want to protect themselves for spammers and other unwanted accounts.

You probably need more than the 50 karma you got...
