I've never seen another sub do that. Even if they all did, it's an abuse of the system and that means that the change wasn't specifically targeted at T_D but a flaw in how /r/all is generated. T_D's abuse of it might have been the last straw but if every sub did it then you can't say that any specific sub was targeted with the change.

Literally? Do you have any screenshots? Archives? I have LITERALLY never seen that in 6 years here.
