Lol I remember someone in that thread asking Woody if he remembered taking a high school girl to her prom and knocking her up. And the social media manager faking Woody’s involvement just answering “can we stick to the movie?”
I just had a good laugh at myself because rampart is so non-existent in my mind, that I had to Google what the hell you were talking about.
So Woody Harrelson is forever famous for the worst AMA ever because he aggressively plugged a movie that must’ve been so bad and irrelevant that I have no idea what people are talking about when they reference it today.
In the statement from the AMA mods, they stated that if Reddit wanted to continue providing that sort of celebrity outreach that they had been doing for free, they should hire a liaison for that.
Before the mods took that responsibility on for themselves, Victoria (/u/chooter on Reddit) used to be that person.
Victoria was able to pull in some big names for AMAs, and she was good at identifying good/interesting questions and helping with submitting responses. Reddit unceremoniously fired her one day and the quality of celebrity AMAs dropped significantly after that.
It’s so crazy how they fired her. Reddit’s leadership really loves to shoot themselves in the foot.
I applaud the mods scaling back their AMA mod duties. No point in doing so much extra work for a community that reddit continually shows it doesn’t care about and actively harms through their bad decisions.
do we have any idea what they fired her for? I keep seeing people that are mad about it, but I don’t feel like I have enough information to know if it was really unjustified
AMAs died when Reddit fired Victoria, they haven’t been worth a shit in a while.
Victoria leaving was tragic but can we talk about Rampart?

I always have time to talk about Rampart.

It is not known exactly who made the decision or why. Apparently even to her.
