they gave me the option, but I'm not in the US so I couldn't even do it if i wanted. so why they even asked me to is beyond me. it's just bs.
"hey.. wanna buy our stuff?"
"yes"
"oh you're not from the US. sorry."
"but you knew I'm not from the US"
"meh."
a lot of people do. there are greasemonkey scripts for it. some scripts even only delete certain old posts after a certain date so reddit isn't picking up to it quickly.
