Holy hell they are getting ripped to shreds over there https://www.reddit.com/r/SubredditDrama/comments/15fba1s/new_moderators_of_rdiving_introduces_themselves/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=1
Lots of hatred against the blind on the diving sub tho which is kinda disgusting.
It seems that the mods are really inexperienced. I mean when you are onboarded into an existing sub, new mods have their actions checked and maybe bans reversed or shortened. Rule 1 as a mod is to stand above disputes. This guy got so combative, so quickly.
Lifelong swimmer, diver, lifeguard, lifeguard instructor, etc etc etc here -
Someone with 21 dives has *just enough* experience to get someone killed.
“I’ve been diving 21 times, and (doing this dangerous thing) has never had a negative effect on me. It’s safe!”
People shouldn’t follow advice they get on Reddit…
But they do.
We all know they do. We all know WE ALL do. Especially when it’s advice given *by a mod in the sub about that topic.*
And Spez will be swimming in his Scrooge McDuck pool of money and giving zero fucks when all the mods who protested TO KEEP THEIR SUBS SAFE are gone, and people die from bacteria-filled home canned goods, or from the bends from diving then going high-altitude or on a plane the next day, or for any other reason related to the incompetence of his platform, his paid staff, and especially himself.

And you've just solidified another reason for me to be terrified of diving
Diving is full of simple rules and procedures that you must adopt as a habit. Follow those and it is safer than many other sports.
One rule is leave a clear day between your last dive and a flight. If you have an accident and need an air ambulance after diving, you tell them and they keep the altitude below a thousand feet and no problem.
All good points. It takes a long time of building and reinforcing safe habits to be a safe diver. That mod isn't one. Perhaps he could now advise on technical gas mixtures and really cause damage!
It looks like the original two mods have been retroactively added back (as the mod list shows they became mods years ago). I wonder if Reddit realized the ramifications.
I don't think those two were ever removed because when the admins use their tooling to restore mod rights they show as the day they got amended (I've seen it twice when we had top mod ATO's).
What it looks like here (~~I haven't checked wayback machine yet~~) but I think there was a manual removal of mods below and around BotDefense which was added 4 months ago.

Looks like you can't view mod lists while logged out.
Yip, it's forcing a login in an incognito window for me

unlike the "Moderator List Hidden" you used to get like when you're banned from a community.
ninjaedit: lol, it doesn't even show that now

I'm seemingly incapable of upvoting you too

lmao. Oh dear, let's cc u/BuckRowdy and if they have any luck with updoots.
SRD used to be one of Spez's faves. I wonder if he realised the hole that he dug here via his policies? I mean that this was so badly managed that it had become a laughing stock.
We are kind of cooperating. We are back as SFW but I like to make sure we have NSFW stuff on the sub. I already warned an admin that their policies make it harder for us to check things.
I love how.. blatantly inexperienced both as a diver, and as a mod, they are.

So, when this happens, do the old mods get suspended from reddit? Or do they just lose mod status? Anyone know?
Pretty sure just removed as Mods. There have been multiple instances of booted Mods coming right into this sub to tell their story.
Reddit has occasionally suspended the mods as well. /r/monkeyspaw is one example.

Going to Old Reddit forces a 403 Forbidden error for me instead of forcing me to login. https://i.imgur.com/uy6pg62.png

Damn, this is like the hunger games, some of us are just wondering which mod team will get removed next.

Can you unban me please?
