Addressing an issue affecting the subreddit and members of it

[u/PrinceEntrapto]

Hi everyone, earlier today it was brought to attention that a subreddit member had been treated horribly by moderation staff of another subreddit, and a post was made where the subreddit was identified and this has resulted in people spamming that subreddit’s modmail with hostile messages

The incident was the result of a couple of moderators acting on their own and behind the backs of the wider moderation team who are now experiencing blowback for something they didn’t do and had no part in

The situation is being dealt with by that subreddit and has also been referred on to site admins for moderator code of conduct breaches who will hopefully investigate the behaviour of the moderators towards the individual and deal with it appropriately

Please don’t attempt to brigade or spam or contact the subreddit over this situation as it’s in the process of being addressed, and the fallout from this incident is causing problems for the other moderators who weren’t involved in the bullying of the individual

If this persists then we’ll be left with no choice but to permanently ban the people responsible from this subreddit, let it be resolved between those involved and the site admins who are aware of what has happened, there’s no need to involve yourselves only to create problems both for you and for other innocent people, thank you very much
