It's not pedantic. There IS a difference, and it's relevant in this case.

but I get the feeling spez is looking for attention/validation.
Is he though? His last comment on Reddit as of this time was 10 months ago. I don't think he really cares, if anything he's being pressured to do it (and possibly doing begrudgingly) because he's the more known "face" of reddit.
E: I'm not defending spez, btw. What I mean is just that I think it's likely he's an unwilling participant in all this. Reddit is just a source of income for him, he doesn't care what happens to it. He probably would rather be cruising on his yacht or whatever, than doing this AMA.
Right? There's no way in which this doesn't end poorly for them. Nevermind that they started this debacle by shooting themselves in the foot, they just keep gleefully shooting it even more, it's insane. Either the investor money is such a huge pressure that they don't care, or they just completely lost touch with reality. Or both.
I'm gonna grab some popcorn tomorrow, this will be a cool friday night tragic comedy to watch.
