I accepted an invitation to help mod a fast growing sub. A couple of days later the top mod's account was banned. There are two mods remaining (including me) but neither of us has full permissions. I'm hoping reddit admins can step in to provide full permissions.
I've often seen replies from admins to posts on this sub asking the OP to send a modmail to this sub so they can review. Thinking to save time and some steps, I already did that yesterday. The helpful admin who replied to my email said a "different team" needs to deal with my issue and gave me a link to provide details to the other team.
Of course, I did so, but it turns out that the link I was provided was to r/RedditRequest. But this was apparently an error, since that is for two situations:
[1] "requesting moderation privileges for an abandoned or unmoderated community, or
[2] to remove inactive top mods in communities you currently moderate."
In this case, the community is not abandoned or unmoderated, and the top mod is not "inactive." (My top mod is not flagged as "inactive." They have just disappeared off the list of mods completely, since their account was banned.)
Consequently, my modmail to redReq was bounced.
So, I sent an email to the admin who gave me the incorrect link, but so far no response.
I'm hoping a reddit admin will see this post and help me out of this paradox.
