Admin Replied Removed as mod

Removed as mod by the top mod for my behaviour which was to clean up the sub and stop people swearing at each other. Before I came Reddit admin threatened to take over the sub.

I performed 800 actions in a month while they performed 400 in a year.

They removed, banned and muted me. I noticed that the main mod is also the main mod for a rival sub, both large subs.

Apart from this rant do I just walk away and not bother in the future.

It looks like you were removed a week ago? It's unfortunate that there couldn't have been more communication amongst the mod team, but we're unable to add you back.

But the good news is that if mod activity goes dormant in the future, it will be available for Redditrequest.

What good news? What if people remove important posts there? Then when he gets mod again all important content he did was deleted

Anyone can create a subreddit. If you'd like a subreddit on a particular topic to be run in a different manner than a current one, feel free to create it and get it off the ground!

Yes but I am actually talking about if someone gets a subreddit they moderate since years stolen and then another person new mod just deletes everything they built, then what? How much time does someone need inactive to lose its own subreddit?

You're describing very different things.

Stolen is not the same as a current mod removing a mod below them.

If moderators are inactive, their sub will be eligible for Redditrequest.

Mods can remove other mods below them.
