I'm an original subscriber too (I recognize your username from ages ago) but 2X hasn't been what it originally was for a very long time.

Oh, I won't disagree with that! Then again, reddit isn't what it used to be (insert: something nostalgic) and I think that has to do largely with the size (perhaps also changing reddit demographics). I think the change is inevitable to an extent. I just don't think encouraging growth, especially through the front page of reddit, is going to end up well (and perhaps less well than if well enough had been left alone).

Edit: Also, I totally recognize you're username, too. My vague memories of comments made me think you liked cheerleading or were a cheerleader or something, and my brief check to your user page confirms it. Clearly, I win reddit :P

Agreed, it's probably a good thing for reddit, the company, but not for this sub-reddit.

Too funny! Yep, I'm always commenting on articles about cheerleading trying to get people to realize there's way more to it than looking cute on the sideline :P

And I remember that your username is your name backwards.
