The moderators of Reddit’s IAmA community are significantly reducing the amount of work they do to help solicit and coordinate AMAs with celebrities and high-profile individuals.

I remember when Victoria was fired, the quality of all celebrity amas went down to shit and became glorified ads, such wasted potential

Yeah, that was such a drag. AMAs with Victoria were outstanding.

They really were, and her loss was immediately noticeable. While we say f-u/spez, we should never forget u/kn0thing and his fuckery with Victoria and the downward slide of Reddit.
