“If a moderator team unanimously decides to stop moderating, we will invite new, active moderators[…]. If […] at least one mod wants to keep the community going, we will respect their decisions and remove those who no longer want to moderate from the mod team.”
But Spez has contradicted this, which his odd: https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/technology/reddit-says-it-won-t-overrule-mods-and-force-subreddits-back-open/ar-AA1cBvUP
i mean, it’s Spez so the chance of him lying is pretty high.
Sure, but was he lying then or is he lying now? It’s hard to keep track of all his bullshit sometimes.
Seems like something that a scumball could reconcile easily enough; “we’re not overruling mods or forcing a subreddit back open. We’re just removing voluntarily inactive mods, and if whoever happens to step in after we do that wants to reopen the subreddit then that’s entirely their decision.”
