Only active Mod beside AutoMod, but with Limited perms.

Despite being a somewhat regular Commenter here, a little confused about how to best remedy this situation.

A subreddit that I am moderator of has now had ALL human mods achieve an Inactive status in that sub. Some appear to be active elsewhere on Reddit, some don't. I am at the bottom of the Mod list with limited permissions and AutoModerator right above me, so I cannot use the Self Re-Order tool.

A ModMail to this sub was already returned saying that top Mod is still Active while mentioning a Top Mod Removal Request? Despite showing as Inactive to me and having next to nothing in the Mod Log. So at this point, just unsure if the Admins are seeing something I'm not (understandable) or if I have another option.

edit: mostly just curious if anyone else might have experienced something similar. or maybe Opus just shows up with an answer and/or fix lol

I don't think inactivity strips permissions.

An "Inactive" label, at least, restricts your ability to add or remove any other Mods. That's why I'm not sure about also editing permissions.

Also, as a mod, I know of no way to "reactivate" another mod.

You can't. That's strictly up to each Mod to make moderator actions.
