What? Where and when did this happen?
Sorry, I don't know where I saw that but one of the "Reddit admins close down a subreddit" posts around here has someone talking about that happening, and some others mention mod actions being done/undone/partially re-done over time due to internal confusion or struggles or whatever. It seems clear no one knows what Reddit is doing, inside the company or out.
Hell, maybe the bots are doing the adminning too. There's no foolishness like absolute foolishness, yes?
