(TheRegister.co.uk) — Vast forum site Reddit has added new policies that it hopes will help rein in harassment of its users by its other, not-so-nice, users.
The meme-trading portal said it would crack down on online harassment of individuals with the goal of ending it, for the good of the site.
“The number one reason Redditors do not recommend the site – even though they use it themselves – is because they want to avoid exposing friends to hate and offensive content,” Reddit staffers said in a Thursday blog post.
