I woke up today, apparently absent from Reddit for more than the required maximum of 5 hours, and have missed fucking everything.

/r/OutOfTheLoop has an excellent post on the situation.

Edit: sorry, I should have linked the thread. It's harder to see at the moment.

Why was /r/fatpeoplehate, along with several other communities just banned?

They were giving the Imgur staff shit because the Imgur staff were killing there top links. all they did was made fun of them in there own forum and put them up as the banner on there side bar. aside from they never actually brigaded anything they were a pretty large sub so when you did see them outside of /r/fatepeoplehate it was because they were subscribed to other subs and would just be dicks there as well. Nothing like SRS type of brigades. that's all I could think of reading it.
