Its traffic also incleased 10 times since 2008. (for a record of reddit traffic in , see: Computer Language Websites Popularity)
From my experience, if you just add one page that contains a pretty chick or semi-nude female, that page's traffic will eclipse your other hundred pages. [see Moving Porn out of XahLee.org] So, i wonder what percentage of reddit traffic is porn related. (it also means more $$$.) Note that there's lots of semi-porn related sites that became huge success. These sites typically start by a teen as teen drivel fodder, where almost 100% content is naked chicks or lurid pictures (shock site, or cute puppy site.). Then, when they become big, either the luridness gets reduced or moved out, and or the site become more respectable as some digital age trend setter. For example: 4chan (ranked 605th with 0.1172 reach), Fark.com (ranked 2.343k with 0.0555 reach). In fact, facebook started that way. See: Facebook's Ethics.
Jailbaits on Reddit!
Just discovered that reddit has a section of Ephebophile. Quote:
Ephebophilia is the sexual preference of adults for mid-to-late adolescents, generally ages 15 to 19.[1][2] The term was originally used in the late 19th to mid 20th century, and has been more recently revisited by Ray Blanchard.[2] It is one of a number of sexual preferences across age groups subsumed under the neologism of “chronophilia”. Ephebophilia strictly denotes the preference for mid-to-late adolescent sexual partners, not the mere presence of some level of sexual attraction. In sexual ethics, it may be defined as a sexual preference for girls generally 14 to 16 years old, and boys generally 14 to 19 years old.[3] Some authors define ephebophilia as a sexual preference of pubescent and adolescent boys.[4]
The reddit section is here: [ http://www.reddit.com/r/jailbait/ ]. (the URL is named jailbait but title of the page is “The ephebophile reddit”)
Note: all the photos submitted there are not allowed to show nipples or pubic area. Cuz otherwise it's not jailbait, but jail, in the land of the free!
As of , this group is deleted. I regret i didn't do a screenshot. If you have a screenshot, please let me know.
Gore on Reddit
New discovery.
Reddit is Surpassing 4chan for Shit
New discovery: Unmasking Reddit's Violentacrez, The Biggest Troll on the Web By Adrian Chen. At [ http://gawker.com/5950981/unmasking-reddits-violentacrez-the-biggest-troll-on-the-web ]
Adrian Chen. Quote:
Adrian Chen is an American journalist, currently a staff writer at Gawker. Chen joined Gawker in November 2009[1] and has written extensively on internet culture, especially virtual communities like 4chan and Reddit. Chen is the founder of The Pamphlette, the Reed College humor publication.[2]
Chen's October 2012 exposure of Violentacrez (a Reddit moderator associated with images of underage girls) as Michael Brutsch, a Texas internet developer, lead to all links to Gawker being banned from Reddit.[3] Brutsch was subsequently fired from his job.[4] In September of 2012, Chen acquiesced to demands from Anonymous and posted images of himself dressed in a tutu with a shoe perched on his head. The images had been demanded in exchange for interviews regarding an alleged leak of Apple iPhone and iPad user data from an FBI laptop.[5][6][7][8]
