I'm one of "them" and I would have to disagree. Without mods the shit posters would be flooding the sub with garbage posts (like MOD insert_name_here IS A SHILL!!!!!11!!!!!). That happens now but the crap gets deleted. I can't think of how many times I've gone into a thread and asked the question "What does this have to do with pizzagate?" And I ONLY did that when the posts were anything BUT related to pizzagate. I stopped frequenting the sub because I think there is way too many shit posts now. I can't imagine how bad it would be without mods keeping it clean.
I get what you're saying and I've been vocal about a few posts that got deleted for what I consider petty reasons, but the mods have a tough job and are doing what they think is best. If anybody sees a specific mod that seems to be trying to derail or kill the sub, report it and make it known in /pizzagatewhatever and /protectvoat and we'll get it taken care of.
All it takes is a page or two of shit posts and the sub will die. If I may ask, what is the reason you want to get rid of mods? Since there are a lot of users and it's only a tiny percentage that has a problem with mods, I'm curious. Do you frequently have posts deleted? If so, what is the reason?
The point of the poll is to determine how many people have a problem with mods. I've had stuff deleted. They say some rule number. I've seen lots of interesting stuff in the removed submissions log. I've seen a lot of people complaining. I've seen submissions with dozens of upvotes getting deleted.
Like the mods know what's better for the community than the community does. Fuck that noise. If that's the case, I should be made a v/niggers mod again so I could delete everything despite community outcry.
I'm still not happy the AMA got deleted and agree that some posts probably shouldn't have been deleted but without mods, the shit posters win. The pro-reddit faggots and others hell bent on killing this investigation will have a field day and just shit post endlessly. How would we keep that in check without mods?

Let the community decide with downvotes.
No one reads the other pizzagate subs. No one reads the removed submissions log. Just get rid of the mods.
Make v/pizzagatemoderated. The default one shouldn't be.

Downvotes. And you can have a moderated sub, just not the main one.

Then convince the users to go to the unmoderated sub and it becomes the main one.
