However, late last night, shortly before midnight (CEST), Reddit admins posted the following update publicly:
“If a moderator team unanimously decides to stop moderating, we will invite new, active moderators to keep these spaces open and accessible to users. If there is no consensus, but at least one mod who wants to keep the community going, we will respect their decisions and remove those who no longer want to moderate from the mod team.”
Shortly thereafter, Reddit began sending out messages to mod teams, containing the following:
“If there are mods here who are willing to work towards reopening this community, we are willing to work with you to process a Top Mod Removal request or reorder the mod team to achieve this goal if mods higher up the list are hindering reopening. We would handle this request and any retaliation attempts here in this modmail chain immediately”.

a big fuck you to Merari01
a big fuck you to BelleAriel
Pissing myself laughing. We purged her from two subs during infighting. She is a fucking awful person and she will lie lie lie if she has to.
I've asked you
TWO
Extremely clear questions.
ONE:
CAN YOU ABIDE BY OUR COMMUNITY'S RULES?
and
TWO:
WERE YOU TRYING TO CALL ME A LIAR?
These are questions I asked YOU.
You can answer them -- or not.
And you can participate here.
Or not.
The moderation team of r/ContraPoints is the moderation team of r/ContraPoints.
YOU are NOT on it.
Before 35 minutes ago, you'd never participated in our community.
How we run our community is our business, and the business of the people who participate here in good faith.
We don't allow disrespect; We don't allow verbal or emotional abuse; We don't allow people to brigade our subreddit and post off-topic posts and metadrama.
What YOU think you know about our moderation team is informed solely by third-hand hearsay and screenshots released by someone abusing their position, edited and therefore cherry picked to support a narrative.
That narrative is abusive.
It will not be allowed.
No one will be allowed to come here and back-seat run our subreddit, or light torches and brandish pitchforks.
So now,
THREE Questions:
The first two still must be answered,
and
AM I PERFECTLY CLEAR THAT YOU ARE NOT A MODERATOR OF THIS SUBREDDIT?
lmao wowsers
Hate to burst your bubble, but I'm pretty sure this is a Bardfinn classic
How do i remember belleariel lmaoo i hate reddit so much
Didn't we offer to lifeboat a sub she (belleariel) was a mod of at one point? I remember being pretty angry about it lol.
i agree fuck those powermods they can go die, but it will only get worse now with more lib censorship lol
