Why our bans could potentially help us.

Usually when a sub goes under because poison mods have infiltrated the mod team and made a take-over, the user base has no idea when they make the sub private unless they actively search out the sub every day. I’ve had subs I was active on that I didn’t realize were banned or private until months down the line.

Now, for some reason, we were all banned before the original r/watchredditdie went private. Because of this, we have an instant notification that basically confirms the brigade. If everyone who was active in that sub got a ban message, then it’s just a matter of time before they all make their way over here to find out what the hell is going on. This makes it easier to grow our community quicker.

As far as I can tell, this isn’t ban evasion either, because it’s not like Reddit banned or quarantined the original sub. It seems as if a bunch of retard power mods took it over and made it private, then sent ban messages to everyone to rub it in. That’s my theory, anyway. If that’s true, then I hope those nerds with nothing better to do are seeing the mass exodus to this new sub, and that they’re realizing that their virtual dick-swinging has backfired spectacularly.
