Maybe it's to make an example of them? Let the zombie subreddits stand as an example of "This is what happens when you cross the admins."
I guess it's possible, but what good would that do reddit? That's millions people who aren't going to be browsing that subreddit anymore, and presumably at least some of them aren't using any ad blockers, so they'd be losing revenue..
I'm honestly not sure. Reddit's decision making here has been so stupid I'm just guessing their motivations.
I check the sub every few days to see if they have mods yet, we'll see what hapens. :p
