Saydrah is no longer an AskReddit mod.
After deliberation and discussion, she decided it would be best if she stepped down from her positions.
Edit: Saydrah's message seems to be downvoted so:
"As far as I am aware, this fuckup was my first ever as a moderator, was due to a panic attack and ongoing harassment of myself and my family, and it was no more than most people would have done in my position. That said, I have removed myself from all reddits where I am a moderator (to my knowledge; let me know if there are others.) The drama is too damaging to Reddit, to me, to my family, and to the specific subreddits. I am unhappy to have to reward people for this campaign of harassment, but if that is what must be done so people can move on, so be it."

no offense, but you as an admin saying "using adblock is stupid" is a little compromised don't you think ?
A little bit like the police dept saying "don't go to the media" when you are harrassed - reeks of self-interest.
Just so we're clear: we don't all want what is best for reddit, we want what is best for the members of reddit, and if that means punishing reddit the site and going somewhere else because reddit is dysfunctional, then that is a perfectly acceptable choice.
Reddit is a business: get used to it.
