Frankly, Even I hate nonsense Reddit API updates that have almost put third-party apps out of business. I’m more than happy with the two-day blackout as a mark of protest. But sealing off our subreddit forever? That’s ridiculous! We’re a community of just over a million. There several of us back online, yet we arent.

The mods are on some power trip, making decisions without consulting us subscribers. How about a vote? Let us have a say in this! It’s an absolute mockery!

I use Reddit to unwind after a hard day’s work, and this subreddit was my favorite. But remember, if you don’t value us, someone else will.

Wake up from your delusion! For heaven’s sake, do right by your subscribers and bring the subreddit back online!

Edit: @mods, you are yet to answer why there’s no vote if you really want to Jeopardize this subreddit for a cause. A fair vote should be there if we made this subreddit into what it is today. Be kind and open.

Edit 2: Still no answer from mods. Why wasn’t there a vote? I hope you don’t consider yourself to be the flag bearer. Downvote me all you want but there’s already a subreddit easily eating up your audience.

Edit 3: Yet no answer from mods. Why there was no vote? Are you guys flagbearers of the community?

    Press x to doubt.

    I use Reddit to unwind after a hard day’s work, and this subreddit was my favorite.

    And I used accessibility-oriented third-party apps to unwind on Reddit, which I can’t do anymore, because of Reddit’s hostile API charges. So I honestly don’t care about you getting your daily fix of Counter Strike low quality rants.

      Yes lets publicly make fun of some suffering from depression. One who enjoys interacting and engaging with the community. Never knew the mods were this selfish to ignore everything.

        Look I get depression and I’m sorry you’re going through it but there are greater struggles at hand right now than any of our individual troubles.

        Your misunderstanding or disregard for the bigger picture doesn’t make the mods selfish. Blacking out the subs is the opposite of selfish in my view.

        Help grow a new community for the same purpose here.

        Wishing you the best friend.

        How dare the unpaid volunteers that run your discussion forum choose to stop running it because of reddit making a change that directly affects them?

        Go find a new CS subreddit, there are plenty left. You’re the one being selfish.
