really? Joined a few weeks ago and has created a ton of communities including general ones like "oracle" "dell" "litecoin". A reddit powermod wannabe setting up camp here? Is this permitted / ok as per this server rules?

If the communities are indeed abandoned, people wanting to take the moderator duty will be appointed by Ruud in case he can't communicate with the original mod, yes. That's what we did to bring /c/Minecraft back.

Is there anyone that needs to be specifically reached out to in order to have mods appointed to an existing /c/?
