      Reddit isn’t one to let understanding their own site get in the way of money making opportunities.

        Based on…basically all of their actions ever…I don’t think they actually understand their own site at all.

      They foster community, sometimes they’re the only ones posting content, and they try and negotiate with the users to calm them down.

      This. So much this. I’d say that, if more than 20% of your moderative actions are removing content and/or banning users, you’re either power-tripping or fucking lazy. Because most of the time you should be doing the things that you mentioned - talking with the users, posting and commenting, so goes on.
