DON'T TOY WITH MY HEART

Every year my dad and I watch Groundhog Day together on Groundhog Day. It's one of my favorite movies of all time. What was it like filming the same scenes over, and over, and over?

Thanks for bringing this up. If you come across that happening again, please either send us a message at /r/reddit.com or send a message directly to me. I'd be happy to work with you to handle this sort of spamming!

Yes, and yes.

This is a pretty loaded question but I'll do my best to answer it. Oftentimes we don't reply when people ask us loaded questions because we know that any response will probably be misrepresented or are questions that are simply looking for a non-constructive argument.

The long and short of it is that we only ban people if they're breaking site rules and we don't remove moderators unless they are completely inactive on all of reddit for over two months. 99% of the time this policy is good enough to cover any situation that pops up, but there will always be that outlier that has users question our practices/policies (which isn't a bad thing!).

While we as individuals may personally agree with the outrage for whatever is happening, we must remove ourselves from the situation and operate equally as we would for any given scenario. So in this instance, it meant that yes, for a time there was a less-than-desirable person moderating a well-known subreddit and we did not remove them because they were not breaking any site rules nor were they inactive for us to remove them via /r/redditrequest (though eventually we did remove them as a moderator for being inactive).
