Also, FYI, the person who created /s/canada said they did not mind at all that it was "reclaimed" and they remained co-mod.

Also, also, anyone who says they are Canadian has a decent presence on SaidIt (isn't an asstroll) will be invited to co-mod /s/canada regardless of political affiliation. Currently there are 6 mods, some left, and others have been invited and not accepted or declined.

I think it's fair to say that re-modding /s/canada is one of a few scant cases were drama is impossible. But maybe I'm just being an typical American and stereotyping.

We can't just pile on re-modding subs to the list of stuff to do for /u/magnora7. Mostly because knowing our luck one of these so called 'mods' will come back from their 700 day hiatus and then bitch out Mags for being a tyrant and how unfair it is.

I was hoping that more of us regulars would chime in on this to help elaborate on how we would like to see this handled. I listed my concerns and threw two random ideas out there and only got one comment of approval and a handful of insightful and fun marks. /u/jasoncarswell, /u/diogenesjunior, and I can't be the only ones wanting to discuss this. And the sooner we come up with something the sooner we can organize and build up this place for the better.

    Congrats!

    As an atheist, I'll be happy to see more there. I find it to be the lowest of the skeptics fruit, easy enough to understand that there are no invisible pink unicorns.

    IMO, you shouldn't leave, just co-mod. If they ask you to leave, maybe consider it, but also consider why they must dominate it.

    I encourage anyone (except asstrolls) to co-mod my subs, though few have accepted, and even fewer have even asked.

    Depends what you mean - I consider subs as "topics" (ie. metatags) and/or "communities" - but above all SaidIt is my community.

      Oh, interesting. And funny. I just PM'd that bot to say The Great Flood of atheist posts will be too much to be noticed here. Either they'll be passed over or ignored. If it's like spam people may ask you to remove /s/Atheism from the SaidIt front page. Perhaps you can make the bot only post the top trending posts from Reddit rather than all of them? Perhaps M7D3 might help you if needs be.

      Also, importantly, I recommend you make a couple changes. Just as you've created /u/Atheism, I recommend you create /u/Atheism_Bot for your bot. Also add to the sidebox of your /s/Atheism something about the automated process from Reddit. People will appreciate the open transparency and deal with it as they see fit (ie. ignore, recognize and acknowledge, accept, not respond to a bot, protest to M7, applaud to M7, whatever). If you were to do so I'd be the first to raise this up as a perfect example of how to use bots properly on SaidIt - and I'd praise you to /u/magnora7 and /u/d3rr.
