The moderator told me questions like this aren’t stupid and they’re the point of this community.

I want an answer.

    I was subscribed to it the first week it existed so I know that your story is completely fabricated. The origin is even in the subreddit wiki…

    /r/NoStupidQuestions was founded in February 2013 for people to feel free to ask the questions they might be embarrassed or ashamed to ask elsewhere. Inspired by this thread and specifically this comment

    Look at the questions in that thread. It was always about silly little questions

      You are saying the same thing as me and proving my point… Did you not understand what I said? It was always about asking questions you might be embarrassed about; it wasn’t always about asking simple questions that had to be based in reality the way it is moderated now and the way OP here thinks it should be.
