This Reddit sub takeover shit needs to stay in Reddit. I hope @[email protected] categorically refuses these demands, we don't want Reddit toxicity here.
I mean you got snoo in your name, bud, you kinda brought it with you.
There has to exist a process by which new mods can take ownership of abandoned communities. Thatβs not Reddit toxicity, itβs day to day business.
Was this necessary?
By which decree?
Idk, was it necessary to make your name a reference to reddit? My fuckin' name is assbutt, dude, the bar isn't very high here. It's pretty weird to call yourself 'snoo' while you go around decrying the evils of reddit.
Come on, are you fuckin' serious right now? If you create 'SnooFuckersAnonymous' then abandon it next week, what the hell are the admins supposed to do with it? According to you, they have to leave it there, empty and unused, forever, instead of letting someone make something out of it. That is asinine beyond words.
For someone who loves reddit enough to adopt the name of their mascot, you sure don't seem to understand how it worked. You're acting as if subreddit requests were exclusively hostile takeovers. Part of requesting a sub was proving that you had made every attempt to contact the existing mods.
Transferring ownership to new mods is basic maintenance in a place like this. Nobody is suggesting we steal communities from their owners and hand them out to trolls.
