@JPthePirate has created their account 2 months ago (like many redditfugees) and created 40+ communities, only to never log back in. The communities are for the most part empty and completely unmoderated - and a lot of them are “brand names” like the names of videogame studios (!bethesda, !blizzard, !devolverdigital, !activision) and somewhat popular videogames like !cultofthelamb and !diablo4.
Would it be possible to delete the ones that are completely empty anyway so that users who actually want to do something with those communities are able to create them from scratch?
If there’s no posts how is it abandoned? They could be waiting for posts, start posting before claiming it’s abandoned.
It’s only empty since you also don’t post mate.
What’s there to mod until there’s some content and users to mod? Just taking over a community isn’t going to suddenly make people active mate. Gotta fix problem one before barking about moderation.
You said it yourself, dead communities. They aren’t dead from moderation issues.
Also lots of mods use alt accounts, if there’s no reason for me to log in to my alt for communities without interaction, why would I?
All of this has to be done before user-generated content shows up, or at least soon after. What the communities got instead, are 2 months of inactivity.
They need content to work with, can’t put lipstick on a non-existent pig.
A lot of active communities have non of those things you mentioned… so how does that work…?
