Yeah I like the idea of sidestepping the mod dethronings by reddit, but I've seen in practice it just makes the subs more popular until the idea looses steam. People want to be a part of the meme and it makes the subs busy as hell, not really wreck them. It's malicious compliance that still gives users reasons to engage with Reddit and even log on to check stuff.
