Reddit Breaks Old.reddit.com

Testing now, I'm able to open www.reddit.com links, but not their corresponding old.reddit.com links; the latter lead to a page which says "YOU BROKE REDDIT".

Yes. New reddit is working, but old reddit cannot access subreddits or posts... I hope this is temporary.

Interesting to see how large the spike is [0] when new reddit seems to be just fine!

This has happened many times in the past( old.reddit.com doesn't work but new reddit does).

Let's calm down and wait a few hours to see if this is just a bad merge on their part.
