Didn't they already put a scab in r/adviceanimals?
Yes, they installed a new head mod and the new head mod bans anyone who brings it up. The new mod is a moderator of 106 different subreddits.
The funny thing is that many people remaining on reddit have been praising the admins for threatening to remove mods, because they hate the power mods who control all the subs and want to see them removed, but that's exactly who reddit is using to replace the mods they dislike.
I honestly wouldn't be surprised if some of these moderators are actually PR Firms or similar.
No. The short story there was an inactive mod was top mod and came back just to make the whole sub private and got backlash from the most active mod about it. Admins ended up removing the inactive mod. There is additional back and forth between the two that got posted but it basically ends as the one actually doing the work gained full control.
Yea but cedarwolf is online 24/7. Fucking scary powermod
