deleting a redundant sub I created

submitted by FlippyKing from self.SaidIt

I created a sub that turns out to be redundant. That should't be surprising as I think with the immigration from the other place, people will be trying to recreate subs they liked. I tried to do that but someone did it already. Now I am moderator of a sub that I don't think should exist. I don't see how to delete it.

How do I do that?

There's no way to delete a sub. You can set it to private. Or you can sticky a post at the top (using the 'make announcement' button on a post) with a link to the sub you want to actually use, to help guide people there

Thanks! I've made it private and I guess that is good enough.

Maybe you could make it private with a message directing people to the other sub in the meantime.

Yes, I did that. Turns out, here is no way to delete a sub. That sort of adds a bit of "careful what you wish for" to the whole process.

    That's very low on the pyramid of debate this site likes to talk about. In fact, it's not even on it. It sounds like you have some projection issues to work out with your parents and therapist.

    I care! You matter!

    You are too kind, perhaps literally, but thanks!

      kid, that's why I'm trying to delete it you fucking idiot. Grow up, take a break from you mother's teet, and get away from her iphone and off the internet.
