@THC was removed as moderator from v/videos for the following reasons:
-
Used a @system subverse as a personal platform
-
Defacing the subverse CSS
@InnocentBystander was removed as designer on v/videos for maliciously modifying the subverse CSS in response to @THC's removal.
We decided to leave the sticky up since @THC felt so strongly about this that he would consider using a @system sub as a soapbox an acceptable course of action.
@Cynabuns doesn't have the power or authority to remove moderators and neither did she request either of you to be removed.
Bottom line is you thought v/videos was your personal subverse to do with as you please. You had issues with Voat asking for Janitors on @system subs and had issues when admins stepped in due to poor handling in the past.
You forced us to remove you and I'm more confident than not that this is the outcome you desired and why you did what you did.

Moderators using a system sub as a personal soapbox is unacceptable and while I don't know what they did to the CSS as I keep that disabled or what other drama may have happened prior I think there should be more communication before taking administrative action. Unless the offensive is terribly egregious I think moderators should get at least one warning (maybe THC was warned but he made it sound like this was a surprise to him) and at the very leased I think if you do de-mod someone you should send them a PM telling them that the admin's removed them and give a brief explanation.
I have no problem with what you guys did but I do think more communication is needed.

And yet they leave up the very thing they said he couldn't do? That makes no sense.

If they took it down it'd cause an even bigger shitstorm.
