As part of the voting process, we asked you optionally if you wanted to share something with the team. Here are some of the responses:
I want to know what the mods voted for
rare GOATed reddit mods thank you for your effort and happy new year
Keep up the good work, mods!
Gay furry game content owo
Live executions of fake leakers
you guys are epic!
Thanks for including relevant links for all of the nominated items!
I use you guys as my main gaming news source. You're legit better than the actual gaming news subreddit. Keep up the awesome work.
Thanks for weathering the switch 2 storm lol, hopefully it won't get much crazier from here.
I like when I see leak relevant news in the sun, so maybe some more rules and flairs for "updates on previous leaks/rumours/areas of interest". Just a bit more clarity on the topic
More Skibidi Toilet
Mod squirt offs
Love u guys
More funny comunity awards like the best comment award
Itโs time to reevaluate the leakersโ tiers. Iโd love for more news to be posted as a natural conclusion to the leaks. At the same time Iโd love for this sub to go easy on the speculation. Anyway great work mods!
Iโm really just a lurker but I love this community. Thank you for everything, and happy new year!
I like the subreddit, solid moderation, posts, community, quality control. If I had to suggest something, once we got our 6th "This is what the Switch 2 looks like" post they should have been put in a megathread of some kind. Only leaks that show new information should have been allowed as separated posts.
Honestly the best mods on Reddit. Deleting shitty posts and shitposts alike
balls balls balls
fucking love this sub. straight cocaine.
Thanks for running the ship!
Love you! o7
A new category: most insane made-up leaks
Best sub on reddit by far
POLSKA GUROM
Thanks for being the best subreddit!
Ban morons calling everything fake or AI. Just permaban them
people here need to chill when it comes to Jez ngl
N/A. Thanks for a great year!
Reading the comments of the year is always a good time. Thanks and here's to a great 2025
spaghetti and meatballs
one of the better subreddits. keep up the good work
youโre doing great, but maybe more and more specific flairs for posts?
Please consider cracking down on anything Tier 6 or lower. Necrofelipe should not be shitting up this sub with his nonsense
I wish I didnโt have to respond to the โleaker of the yearโ one. Itโs a lame popularity contest, and no one really cares.
Crushed Dreams Award: Leaks that seemed promising or potentially true, but ultimately were wrong or disproven. Small Nitpick: Pyoro leaking his own source to Jason Schreier, then Jason exposing it, basically nuking Pyoro relevance in Leaks Community should have been nominated for Oopsie of Year, definitely not win the category, but deserved a nomination (Midori's Japanese Girl RP should win it)
Let the first person to post something be the only post and delete the second one onward. Kinda weird when two people make the same post and the latter one is the one being approved, especially when it's someone like IcePopsicleDragon who seems to have a monopoly on info posts (some of which are flat out incorrect or not actually unconfirmed). I get you might have preferences or people that are more reliable so they get instantly approved, but be fair to newcomers.
Where are the "monthly pics of armpits" threads you promised all these years ago? I log in to the sub daily just to see if it's here to no avail
I want more photos of Spider-Man!
