Addressing the subreddit

Ahoy, me hearties! I'm just posting my updated comment from the other thread here, because that user said I edited it too much. I was editing it to add more info and keep things civil. I'm not blocking him, or locking him out, or anything else he is claiming. I'm sure he'll be saying whatever he wants in the comments below. Thanks for your support, all.

I remove one to two posts every week, which is kind of crazy considering how inactive the subreddit is.

This user has never made a post or comment on here or any other subreddit before, nor can I find them on the forums. So he is not an active user, just someone complaining. I would literally make the guy who posts memes a mod if he wanted to be, but not someone who just comes in and accuses me of things that aren’t true. My personal opinion is that we don't need another subreddit and I think he just want to control things. But just go make another subreddit if you would like, no problem.

Just for fun, I can tell you the history of the subreddits. I made /r/puzzlepirates (the official subreddit) and a different user made this one. Someone else made /r/yohohopuzzlepirates and removed all posts on it and locked it--we think it may have been an employee. Cardinal made me a mod on this subreddit because he was too inactive. We agreed to just let both stay up because that's what users wanted at the time. I think that having 4 separate subreddits for the same SMALL game is absolutely silly. I don't mind you deciding to make another subreddit but also, this subreddit is moderated. I'm online almost every day and get rid of all the junk and bots. Sorry that some posts stay up for a day but thank you to anyone who reports posts, because I don't notice all of them. And for whatever it's worth to anyone, I used to be a beta tester in the original YPP and also for Bang! Howdy.

And I'm open to any suggestions. And if people think we should make the other subreddit redirect over to this one too, I'm ok with changing that! There's no "hunger for power"--it's just a subreddit, man. The only users I've ever banned from the subreddit are bots and people selling stuff against TOS.

Thanks, all!

Oh and for whatever it's worth, I totally agree with the user that the name of the subreddit should have "Puzzle Pirates" in it, that's why the official one (/r/puzzlepirates) does but people posted more here instead so it is what it is!
