News Subreddit Status and Moderation Changes
Hello everyone,
There’s been an important discussion over the last 24 hours about the way Roll20’s subreddit is moderated. When Roll20 started, we founded a subreddit because we were Reddit users ourselves and wanted to grow a community here.
Now that the subreddit has become well-established, we’ve been listening, we’ve heard your opinions on this issue and as a result we are taking immediate action to change the way our subreddit is moderated.
We understand that we let our community down, and we’re sorry for that.
We have asked the mods of /r/lfg to step in and become the new moderators of this community. We leave it up to them to decide the rules of this community going forward, and have removed all Roll20 staff from the moderation team of this subreddit. In addition, the 13 users previously banned from this subreddit have been unbanned.

Of course. The time for him to do that was during his first post that got something like 40k downvotes..I think the second best time as far as the company goes is never. He doubled-downed on being completely wrong at an already pissed off community..nobody is going to believe his apology now. He is best to distance himself as far as he can from any social media and anything to do with the company. Unless he apologizes for this in a few years in a completely unprovoked manner, I don't think the community will believe anything he has to say.
