/r/the_donald has violated Reddit's site wide rules, yet remains on the site

This happened 4 months ago during the /mr_trump vs /r/the_donald feud

Viking was second on the mod list on mr_trump.

He was pissed that he wasn't anywhere near to being on control on the earlier the_donald mod team (he was somewhere in the middle)

He decided to take out his frustration by doxxing. Remember that time when I linked Gumbledog to being an ex Coontown moderator. It actually came from here.

Only difference - other than just the releasing of GD's past, Viking allowed GD's IRL identity to spread through IRC

He made it a point to make everyone on both Discord and IRC know

Following that came mr_trump's automod message linking GD to CT

He's responsible for doxxing and spreading doxxing of several other t_d mods such as Trumpgal too

What surprises me is how JCM allowed Viking to take over the_donald

Credit goes to /u/pancakees for this theory, but could Viking have threatened to release JCM's personal information if he wasn't handed the sub?

The other alternative is that JCM's incredibly stupid. Eitherhow, Viking's doxxed and facilitated doxxings

Let alone modding the_donald, why isnt he permabanned from the site?

Title edit: top mod
