Any reason given?
Most likely refusing the admins.
Awkwardtheturtle is a part of the Powermod Slack Team, who aren't the best friends with the Reddit admins.
I wonder if it's a possibility that the entire powermod slack team protests this by blacking out all the subs they mod indefinitely until the ban is lifted.
According to their own complaints, probably because one of the thousands of subs they were mods in went dark. Another user here mentioned that their subs didn’t participate in the protest, but the mod said that one of the mods higher up in the list kept one dark.
All other things aside, the specific reason for the ban seems to be unfair - this person would have been one of the "hey make me top mod of this sub and i'll make it public again" folks. Exactly the type that reddit admins want to keep.
They just keep shooting themselves in the foot.
