r/interestingasfuck has been without mods for 2 weeks now. It's just so idiotic. They remove all the mods and then... don't replace them? Now there hasn't been a post in 2 weeks on a sub with 11+mil members.

I wonder if they just forgot about that particular sub?

    Maybe it's to make an example of them? Let the zombie subreddits stand as an example of "This is what happens when you cross the admins."

    I guess it's possible, but what good would that do reddit? That's millions people who aren't going to be browsing that subreddit anymore, and presumably at least some of them aren't using any ad blockers, so they'd be losing revenue..
