Some quotes from "sorted by controversial"[1], an amazing feature that I wish HN had as well: > This is great news. Can Spez replace the r/NBA mods. Those losers need to be taught a lesson. Shutting down a huge sub with 8K votes on a hidden poll during the NBA FINALS. PATHETIC. ### > Mods are free to run their communities the way they see fit within the boundaries of the rules that apply Reddit Wide. > So no, this does not contradict standing policies. Free to run their communities means you as a user can either agree with the rules they state in their communities or not join. > If you want to talk policies, don't forget about this one... Reddit Content Policy: Rule 8 > Don't break the site or do anything that interferes with normal use of the site. Do not interrupt the serving of reddit, introduce malicious code onto reddit, (or) make it difficult for anyone else to use reddit due to your actions,...... > https://support.reddithelp.com/hc/en-us/articles/360043512931 https://support.reddithelp.com/hc/en-us/articles/36004351293... > Reddit admins would be fully within their rights to remove moderators who don't even want to stop, just for the fact they are blocking users from freely accessing their own content in the communities they participate in. ### > If I can be voted out of my community that I created, and built for almost 10 years I will delete every fucking thing and quit this site for good. I will not stand to be overthrown because reddit administration decided to have a pissing match with mods and give all our control to the community. If I let the community run my sub from the beginning I wouldn’t have a sub. I kept it to a standard and that is largely why it has succeeded. I’m not saying I’m the only one that can moderate that sub, but I am the only one with the original vision. If it comes to this I will delete everything and let the next person create it’s replacement. I found it particularly fascinating that this one got downvoted, when I thought that it was in line with the group think. I guess redditors actually like the idea of voting out mods, but are in too much of an anti-management mood right now?
