"We demand the unpaid volunteers that aren't listening to us to do as we say or we will find new unpaid volunteers who will replace you and spend their free time deleting posts and comments!"
"Also ignore that fact that it's been two weeks and we still can't find unpaid volunteers for /r/interestingasfuck "
The fact that some people are actually willing to take that offer is both hilarious and sad.
I get why people do it, I don't get why people would do it to take over existing large subs in that mess.
Wanting some control over a community you care about makes total sense. You put in the time, and you foster the kind of people and content you are interested in.
Playing whack a mole in the current environment on reddit seems like a nightmare to me.
