just to have some random guy return and steal it

But it wouldn't be some random guy, it could only be /u/magpie who started the sub and submitted a lot of its top content?

We really just don't have this policy worked out yet. Going by Reddit standards your account would have to be 90 days old and have some karma. You do seem to be a long term redditor though. It's cool that you want to spend years here building something up.

What if we worked something out like user for 2 weeks (like everyone else has to wait), second mod for 90 days, then top mod after that? What about /s/Anti_Psychiatry or /s/AntiPsych instead?

Thank you. I'll message you in two weeks.

Hey. It's been two weeks. The current mod is still away (he's been gone 8 months now.)

Ty.

Alright I just escalated this to the top. We'll see what happens.

Thank you.

Do you expect this will take a long time?

If you didn't hear anything yet feel free to message /u/magnora7

It's all up to him and I guess there might be others wanting to take on this same sub.
