I asked Alexis quite a few times to address the NYRD thing, and he was always like "No, no, that guy's just a crackpot. Don't spoil my announcement!" He finally relented this time.

Anyhow, we're on the lookout for nefarious content manipulation too, because anything that damages the organic curation of content is a threat to the very core of what makes reddit special, *and thus the viability of our own jobs.*

So that's fine, we appreciate your sentiment. But just please stop vote-cheating and brigading, because that's *nefarious content manipulation* too, okay?

Silly Alexis, I'm not a crackpot I just haven't been around since he was eating pizza in Davis Square.

because anything that damages the organic curation of content is a threat to the very core of what makes reddit special, and thus the viability of our own jobs.

I appreciate your stance on this. Is there a safespace I can use to report instances where I believe admins or high ranking mods be engaging in this type of behavior without fearing repudiation?

And, I have made it quite clear to Erik. I will never break another rule (and, just for the record, I don't think reporting possible spammers in RTS should be considered harassment), just let me speak freely in accord with your TOS. Cheers and thanks.
