MODERATORS
I strongly disagree, for four reasons:
Could the moderators get a victory? I don't think so; I believe that they should've scorched earth and migrated. Even then, the revolts did damage against Reddit, that Reddit could go without. Reddit might've won the war against the jannies but it didn't benefit from its own victory, well, that's a Pyrrhic victory.
Clever marketing could do something but Reddit is not clever. (If Reddit was clever it would've killed the 3PAs without a revolt, by boiling some frogs.)
I mentioned this in other threads, but my prediction is that Reddit will neither suddenly crash nor stay alive "just fine". It'll slowly go downhill.
In other words, Reddit will turn into Digg.
I am going to quote a wise saying I said on New Digg : "An empty Subreddit has been abandoned, a full subreddit will be abandoned"
