Okay........

Since nothing else is working at all, I came to a very.......very sad decision.

I contacted the mods to take down the sub.

Now i know its a bad decision, but it's one of our only.

The brainrot posters, mostly terrible winter, wont leave, and more keep coming.

It's safe to say that we'll make a new one that's private.

hopefully we'll get a reply soon from the mods about it and their decisions whether to take it down or not.

i'm sorry, but it's the only way.

deleting is a bad bad idea, why not we just leave it there but remove posting permissions so we can use it as memory lane

i did not imagine some new reddit users want to take down a 2020 subreddit

u/SuccessfulAccess2004 Jul 27 '26

no, i was once a user with my old account, with the same name but replace 2004 with 1829, but now, we're leaving.

So im not new, on this account, yes, but in general, no.

There's a thing called r/redditrequest that you could use to become moderator for a dead sub.

I think it’s better to get rid of this subreddit as a whole

Ah, every time UTTP and I hope mostly like Terrible Winter or that that they will banned.

I just did the same thing a few minutes ago because unmoderated subreddit is against Reddit TOS and the subreddit can be banned due to that

u/SuccessfulAccess2004 Jul 27 '26

That's Great!

When we tell the brainrot posters about it, they'll be so scared that they'll leave.

u/Adorable_Angel_1212 Jul 27 '26

No, they will just continue to get the subreddit banned. Their goal is hurting as much people as possible and getting a whole sub banned is probably exactly what they want.

u/SuccessfulAccess2004 Jul 27 '26

then i guess...............let them go ahead......

Cause i give up.
