Over on Reddit, /r/AssholeDesign was taken over by a moderator that had been radio silent for over two years. The linked Imgur album contains modmail screenshots and our entire conversation after calling them out for this betrayal.

    I once made a sub, and no one joined it. I then found out that you can’t shut one down. Every. You can abandon it, and reddit will hand it over to the first person who asks for it, but once a sub is open it can never, ever be closed.

    You can hand it over though. Or at least, that is how things used to go.

      Still true!

      My one gift to humanity was r/dndcats and it’ll last as long as reddit does.

      😂🤣😂

          I just don’t have time to moderate 3 posts in 8 years. Live/Work balance being what it is…

          My first post was a great photo of a cat behind a DM screen. So I asked the poster if I could use it as a banner image. She wanted to be made a full admin or no.

          So no, and it went downhill from there.
