MODERATORS
Attempting to stop supporting a massive company you don't like while actively and provably damaging a smaller company and community that you DO like was and is a terrible idea, frankly. I would have been so disappointed if the sub stayed closed while 7 Crimes launched, thinking about the analytics guy at DE looking at the tangible dip of week 1 player activity post-patch (compared to other updates) because the people who usually see the updates coming from looking at the reddit just didn't know it even came out. Honestly, even keeping it closed for the next few days will hurt the anticipation buildup and negatively effect activity, but whatever. Better now than never.
I deleted my twitter account for less. Is it an issue that I stopped supporting a "massive company" because I didn't like how it was being run? (not that twitter was run particularly well before it was bought). It's not the first time a platform has killed itself. (looking at tumbler)
And now Tumblr is under new leadership and thanks to Twitter and Reddit doing their shenanigans… it’s been having a resurgence lol
The tumblr users reviled the twitter users while they're actively embracing the reddit users. Two sides of the same shitposting coin.
Your twitter account wasn't (probably) an active and living part of a game development studio's online presence. Individuals can do whatever they want with their accounts, obviously, but the subreddit isn't that, it's a forum. All the people that choose not to engage with reddit anymore can just do that, but the people who want to interact with warframe ON reddit in SPITE of reddit (I hate twitch but I still watch these streamers, I hate youtube but I still watch yada-yada, etc;) can't anymore with the sub closed. Do what you want, but let everyone else do that, too.
In the same vein, Reddit moderators should be free to close down the subreddit. The subreddit is ultimately a reflection of their hard work and their values. They're the ones who take care of and manage the subreddit, and they're the ones disproportionately affected by the API changes.
It's no different from a forum admin closing down a forum. Ultimately, it's their decision and their right.
Hard disagree
When bus drivers quit, they don't get to keep the bus. Any admin who thinks they OWN their forum enough to close it down (Especially when they don't even own the website it's on) is power tripping. Again, individual users can do what they like, and any moderator who doesn't want to operate on new reddit doesn't have to, more power to 'em. But they don't take the slot with them when they leave.
Thankfully the mod team understands this, they talk about it in their return reddit post.
