… basically the same thing at this point. Especially since you pretty much threw up the “taking my toys and going home” approach. Hopefully your next mods will be more competent and logical.

Are you one of the ones responsible for burning that sub down?

I’ve had success posting on Reddit with it. Make sure to vote Monday so we can get that sub back.

Reddit will hopefully be back up next week. Wait until then and post it back there.

It feels kind of telling reading your responses. If you wanted it open you would have gone with the option that got the most votes:" open back up".

Because it happened last time when the poll didn’t go as you wanted. I’m sure you understand many having skepticism about this.

Are you/they planning to add them together against the “stay open” option again too? From what your saying the “open” option would have won already in the previous vote.

Regardless, leaving the community restricted with a vote will lead to less folks caring about the sub over time and eventually it dying off. There’s about 175k folks there vs about 400-ish here - this place isn’t the answer to putting a quality sub on life support.

How would contest mode have improved the outcome? Right now this whole vote feels like a sham, as the mods didn’t like how it was going so they skewed the results by adding two opinions together. If you don’t want to be there anymore I encourage you to seek out someone else to take your spot instead of just restricting the community and walking away.

This niche community isn’t going to “take it to the man”. Besides, if you follow the stickied mod post on Reddit most hate it and this “protest” is doing more of a disservice to the community than the powers that be. The mods even moved the goalpost mid vote when they realized it wasn’t going their way. It’s petty - end of story.

I feel you. I just don’t like the idea of losing reddit to petty mods.
