/r/gunsarecool on that "other" site is an absolute disaster of numbskullish garbage from people who hate guns. Fine, I don't care if that is their opinion, they can be jerks over there, but why does HenryCorp get to come to voat, steal a subverse from people who were just minding our own business, and ruin /v/gunsarecool?
At the very least, our subverse should be returned to us, and HenryCorp should be banned.

Yeah, I think we are pretty much in agreement on all those points. The real solution would involve creating a rule that would specifically disallow what HenryCorp did to steal the subverse in the first place, and to stop him from continuing to squat on other "name-brand" subverses.
Unfortunately, I think this would require some actual action on behalf of the administrators, who seem to be too busy recently to get involved. I vaguely remember Atko saying he was aware of the whole HenryCorp situation a while back, but I don't have a link to it. I assumed he would sort it out, but it seems nothing has ever happened.
I'm not sure how to fix the problem if it doesn't get fixed from the top down, but I just generally disagree with mob justice. It would be right in this instance, but like I mentioned before, it sets a rather bad precedent.
You say we don't come here for abstract principles, but I sort of do. It's definitely why I left Reddit.
