        Yeah, I’m a mod for a few subs that total about 800k people. 99% of them have been really nice, but dude. The ones who aren’t REALLY aren’t. You’d think I molested their cat or something, when in reality I let the users bring it up, then vote on it, then vote AGAIN to stay closed. It was overwhelming in all cases that we do this.

        Sorry I listened to my users I guess, should I be like Spez and just do what I want? If so, it’s closing anyway. Oops.

            Problem is, to do that I’d have to open reddit. I’ve done that exactly once, when I saw /r/gaming pop back up I went to their vote on going dark again and told them to do so.

            You best believe we’re gonna come out swinging if reddit pulls their heads out of their asses though. I get about 10-20 pms an hour of ban worthy material. This is gonna be fun. “Hey we’re open again! Too bad you won’t be invited.”

        Also probably a bit of servivorship bias at work here – the people who really dislike the change aren’t on reddit to upvote/comment leaving the bootlickers to be the ones who do.
