I totally agree with you on the value of the "knowledge pool", though. I endure people being pedantic and sometimes downright rude because with redditt I know I will learn something new, often from halfway across the world, each and every day...and that makes me happy! Was that a run on sentence? ;)

One big problem with Reddit (and any other groups of laypersons) is that the answer they provide may intuitively appear to be the correct answer, but isn't actually right. I regularly see incorrect information in fields I'm knowledgeable about being upvoted and people who try to correct it being downvoted. I've been downvoted myself even when correcting something (politely) with sources because it's not intuitive so to a lay person it sounds wrong.

Reddit has a capital "r" and only one "t".

Usually, commas go before the end quote. ;)
