I banned the subreddit because of some of the mods who were added and the specific situation that was created with them. Many of them had been repeatedly banned from reddit for various reasons. The situation was out of control. I offered to unban /r/jailbait if those mods were removed. VA did not want that. I have made this offer again, but he feels (I think) that if he can not add whatever mods he wants, then it should stay banned. I don't agree with him on that, but I understand his point.
To be clear, this was not really about content. It was a very specific situation with a big reddit with specific issues and a bunch of new mods with bad rap sheets. It was essentially my decision …
VA added a bunch of trolls as mods (they also run /r/beatingwomen, for example)
Look at all the other subreddits the r/[REDACTED] trolls moderate, they keep getting banned.
/r/[REDACTED] mods have gone rogue to the same people that caused this whole Jailbait fiasco
These are not your everyday ignore them til they go away trolls.

This is part of some research I've been doing into the "bad old days" of Reddit, when the admins appear to have had red flag knowledge of the behaviour of specific groups & their members.

Did Bardfinn actually say he would personally promote the unbanning of mother-fricking /jb?
That shit is r-slurred and should not stand.
If this is real then I don't know what to say.
