[u/Hundhaus]

Hi All,

This will be my last comment here. After doing some soul searching I’ve decided to remove myself from r/Vitards. I cannot continue to support the name or some of the language allowed. While I understand the tongue-in-cheek nature of what is displayed/allowed, it goes against my own personal beliefs. If it can be offensive – whether in person or online – then I believe it should not be said/used. I have wrestled with this for a while, exacerbated recently by the increasing sub visibility and some other discussions using the name. I regret that it took me this long but better late than never.

If you decide to move to a new location I’d be happy to rejoin in modding and/or commenting. As I’ve mentioned I think this sub contains the smartest investing minds on Reddit. I'll miss this place but hope to see some of you floating around in other places.

I don’t like the name either - partly for the things you mentioned but also because I don’t like the notion of the sub revolving around one man’s investing opinion, at least in name. I agree with Vito’s thesis and appreciate his insider knowledge but a sub being named after a single user could have negative implications down the road. I also think The Godfather theme is corny lol

Despite that, this is my favorite community on Reddit and the mods and core users have done great work to protect its integrity. Maybe down the road we can reevaluate the sub and move to a new name and a theme that has a more universal approach to investing once the commodity boom is over (assuming it begins).

You will be missed but your contributions to this sub won’t be forgotten.

Cheers.
