> mods are already power hungry lunatics and your most obsessed power hungry mod
I mean, here you are just describing the mods that are holding these subreddits hostage. It seems appropriate for reddit to return these to the community in the case where the obsessed power hungry mod's behavior goes against what the community wants.
- bbor 3y agoHave there been any subreddits that voted to open instead of stay closed? All the ones I’ve heard about were in favor of maintaining the protest
- slaymaker1907 3y agor/NewOrleans and r/SaltLakeCity voted to end it. There has also been rampant brigading from the pro-blackout side (see r/magicTCG, in addition to a Twitch stream brigade users on r/freemagic talked about voting in the poll despite being banned from r/magicTCG). I’m curious how r/FanFiction will go since they’re doing much more robust polling with karma requirements to stop brigades.
- BryantD 3y agoThere’s been brigading from both sides, it’s just more noticeable when it’s an outcome you personally disagree with. I’m having to remind myself that just because a) my subreddit has someone who’s never posted there vehemently arguing to stay open and b) staying open is winning the poll, that doesn’t mean it’s a brigade. (There would be more people voting if it was a brigade, so I’m pretty sure it’s not. But emotionally it bugs me.)
- BryantD 3y agoI run a thousand member subreddit that is probably going to vote to stay open. Insignificant but it’s a data point.
- atty 3y agoHolding them hostage? The reddits I’ve been a part of voted to be closed.
