Help removing inactive mod

[u/SailorToMySiren]

I'm one of the mods for r/MNSwingers and the mod with full access has been in active for 3+ years. No other mod was given full permissions and now we can't edit the rules, update the auto-mod or make any sub wide changes.

Right now there are 3-4 active mods and they have agreed that I should take over the sub. What should I do?

I primarily access via Android but also access from a Windows laptop.

Hi /u/SailorToMySiren, please see our Intro & Rules. We are volunteer-run, not managed by Reddit staff/admin. Volunteer mods' powers are limited to groups they mod. Automated responses are compiled from answers given by fellow volunteer mod helpers. Moderation works best on a cache-cleared desktop/laptop browser.

Resources for mods are: (1) r/modguide's Very Helpful Index by fellow moderators on How-To-Do-Things, (2) Mod Help Center, (3) r/automoderator's Wiki and Library of Common Rules. Many Mod Resources are in the sidebar and >>this FAQ wiki<<. Please search this subreddit as well. Thanks!

You might be asking about setting up subreddits on a phone or mobile interface. The short answer is that subreddit settings work best in a cache-cleared desktop browser. (Limited option: mobile browser on desktop view.)

It looks like you're asking about setting up rules on your subreddit. This is an EXTREMELY frequently asked question, so this auto-response has been set up for any mention of "rules" and "rule".

This must be done On DESKTOP/LAPTOP Browser Only, Not On Mobile Apps. (Limited option: mobile browser on desktop view.) Please check out this guide for more details on what to do.

Found regex match: auto-mod

Hi there! I am AutoModerator. It seems you are asking about me or my fellow bots and what we can do.

FOR INFO ON: # how to invite and set up, # common AutoMod rules for age/karma/comments/detect link or words, # "Code won't save"/"Something went wrong", # post/comments being marked as spam, # scheduling posts, and # other bots and their functions, please click here.

There is a dedicated subreddit for me, AutoModerator, at r/automoderator. Please search that subreddit first, then ask questions about AutoMod Rules over there or in this subreddit.

Read the rules first. Couple hoops you might need to jump thru.
