I'm the top mod of /r/piracy in reddit. Can I get a mod position? (www.reddit.com)

Hey y'all, In the past I had arranged that /f/piracy in raddle.me would be the fallback forum for /r/piracy, but I recently noticed that raddle.me has disabled new user registrations and that would be a problem in case we need it.

And with reddit about to go public, it might be needed.

Instead of trying to spin up my own lemmy instance, I was thinking if I could get a mod position in this forum and specify it as the official /r/piracy fallback instead.

Feel free to PM me in reddit for verification.

Are you sure there are many such other people? We would need more than 1-2 anon testimonies to atleast know if this is a trend. OP mod and community have been pretty cooperative with The Eye, and that looks to me like a decent sign.

Reddit's piracy Subreddit is known to ban everyone who - according to mods - causes slight troubles, the internet is full of it. I can get 50 people in here, that contacted me on Reddit, they also got banned for no reason or no good reason at all, and the Mods never respond to mod mails.

Last I checked, The Eye is dead because of lack of funding.

Sounds really weird if true, people should post modmail as collective proof. What is there to stop anyone, since Lemmy has independent people?

Not if, it is true.

He does not belong into piracy at all nor on Lemmy. Same like any of the other faceless Piracy clowns. No backbone, now they trying to influence and take control over this sub because they know that their own sub is going down due to Reddit changes.

That sowed some doubt in my mind. I will have to look around even more, it seems. They should earn their status by showing their worth here, now that I think.

Edit: those testimonies seem really bad examples to me, there are like 700K members on reddit, and 2 botched up bans for weird reasons seems a bit... weird.
