take a look at /r/undelete some day. Reddit is frighteningly unopen.

  It varies quite a bit by subreddit, of course. Some mods like to rule their little fiefdoms.

    This is very true. Many of the subreddits that are very specific to a given technology or programming language or something like that are often the worst. The audience is comparatively small to begin with, and mostly made up of people who hold the technology in high esteem. Any user who submits comments that may be deemed as slightly negative or questioning of the technology are targeted and "eliminated", so to speak. This leads to a very toxic environment where quality content and discussion become totally non-existent.
