    The goal should be to find a way to destroy the subreddit without getting removed as mods. Which should focus on killing user engagement through draconian mod rules. Like an automod that bans everyone that comments.

    People laugh at the John Oliver thing for a few days, but the joke will get stale, that’s when they need to stick to their guns and keep running it into the ground. I’d also suggest limiting posts to once an hour or something like that. Mods need to focus on making Reddit boring.

      Auto banning people who post is an amazing idea. I’m sure you’ll get people posting just to get banned after a point but some of the most popular subs will become rule following shit posts within hours. People who love the board won’t post anything because they don’t want to get banned and people who don’t care flood with spam, or the board just dies. But it’s still open, you can still post, what’s the problem? Just add a few super vague rules and cite a random one lol.
