To be fair, and whilst I am poking fun at the article with the description, unfortunately there are bound to be at least a couple of crackpots that would try and incite violence, regardless of the fact that the vast majority of Reddit staff likely don’t agree with what’s been going on either.

Hear hear!
I never really contributed much to reddit, as usually you had the people that perpetually watched twitter / news sources / new reddit posts getting in first, to the point where there wasn’t a whole lot of point getting involved outside of voting, because someone else has already said whatever you were about to.
Here though, I’m itching to contribute and get the ball rolling on magazines. Just a shame the performance issues are hampering that, haha!
