A fellow mod informed me that about it as I was laying in bed. Reddit sent a message to the mod team and after 1 hour demoded me. I didn't even had time to see it, never-mind respond to it.

Looks like we rattled reddit enough to start shooting. There goes all that fancy talk about our protest not affecting them much.

Just FYI for now. It's late here so I'll see how we proceed tomorrow.

It looks like the sub is now in restricted mode - is that the doing of the other members of the mod team or is admin trying to control outrage?

Be sure to remove as much as you can and heavily encourage heavy contributors to delete their comment history. They have no value without our data.

I've gone a step further. I deleted comments and sold my reddit account.

Now my decade old account is being used by someone who wants to game reddit in some way.

Have fun with that spez.

Is there a way to archive/clone most posts from r/piracy on here, I think while the api works, that's something we should think about.

Well there goes my reddit account. r/Piracy was one of my biggest resources and it seems to be going in an unfortunate direction, so I don't see a point for giving reddit my data.

I wonder how much of r/piracy traffic is people who would migrate to whatever fallback we got, seems like the only way. Fighting reddit whilest using it is pointless

Time to post pics of John Oliver

Unfortunately you're not the first sub this is happening to and surely won't be the last. We're about to possibly see a large shift in who moderates the subs at Reddit and it will only be for the worst.
