A fellow mod informed me that about it as I was laying in bed. Reddit sent a message to the mod team and after 1 hour demoded me. I didn’t even had time to see it, never-mind respond to it.

Looks like we rattled reddit enough to start shooting. There goes all that fancy talk about our protest not affecting them much.

Just FYI for now. It’s late here so I’ll see how we proceed tomorrow.

    I came to the same conclusion in a post on a sub that was debating whether they should re-open permanently or not. I’ll leave it to you to imagine how well it went over, but it should be added that this behavior doesn’t only affect mods or power users; it’s true of the userbase in general. People will latch onto anything they can in order to defend crossing their own picket line.
