As a former mod of multiple active subs, yeah, they can have me back. All they have to do is let RIF work again.

r/gamingnews made a post asking for new mods. There were 3 or 4 posts saying "I have little to no experience but pick me." that were down voted into oblivion. The rest were shit posts calling out the administration, calling the new mods shills, and genteel bring combative and unhelpful.

So that was nice.

People should start volunteering then continue the protest as the new mods.

Never really had much to say about the mods until the recent mess. What's left, holy shit. I now look forward to the funeral of the Snoo.

poor bastard didn't deserve the assholes he got left with.

I hope the fediverse succeeds. But it’ll need to do it on its own, not on the back of a dying Reddit.
