The discussion at https://larslofgren.com/codesmith-reddit-reputation-attack/ is not going well for Mr. Novati.

Edit: oops, that was the wrong link! I meant to link to the reddit post discussing that article: https://www.reddit.com/r/codingbootcamp/comments/1o1guxj/tho...

I think one of the most telling facts is that pro-Novati poster u/Ok-Donuts has posted numerous comments that are clearly a violation of all norms but seems to be immune to moderation.



Were there replies to the comment you linked? Because I don't see any now.


I meant to link to the post, not Novati's comment, but they are close together:

u/Ok-donuts is clearly his alt. Absolutely pathetic


Such accusations are a dime a dozen and almost always false. (I myself have been accused of being people I'm not.) It's simply a fact that there are people who think alike or who form alliances or kneejerk defenses of someone.

In any case, Novati is not acting like a disinterested moderator.

Fitting username ... I'm the person who posted the comment just above calling out Novati for not moderating the alleged sock.


Oh, I also defended Michael. Not a fan of character assassinations / witch hunts / exaggerated claims.


That'll show him!


Meaningless low effort comment.
