Hey guys, we should let the most dedicated and toxic moderators, moderate even more with multiple subs!

Hey guys, let's like, buy an app, and like, ruin it!

Hey guys, let's redesign the site to be less space and data efficient.

Hey guys, let's roll our own video player! Who here knows anything about video players? Anyone?

Hey guys, let's add random coins and gifts and avatars and let's dive into the crypto scene! We can't lose!

Hey guys, let's go public! What could go wrong?

Hey guys, we should shun all our porn communities!

Hey guys, let's force all apps except ours to pay us or gtfo!
