No one at Grapeshot has moderation powers here, though I'll send a message to MisterWoodhouse so he can check it out.

Could I get a link to your profile on the forums? I'd like to see what's happened.

You should think about asking to put your company PR / community manager and team as the only mods given that you own the IP to the game. If they won't hand it over, Reddit should force them to. Copyrights and editorial freedoms are one thing. Damaging your game's image with this kind of abusive (I'd qualify forced censorship of Redditors in this context abuse, as would Reddit) behavior is quite another. If it keeps up, people have stated they'll report, and if that happens the mods or sub are potentially removed. It's outrageous that random people can register these subreddits out from under the game developers and cause so many issues. It's fine to domain squat, but when you start damaging potential income from any business, it's court-worthy and given the history of subs, Reddit definitely doesn't want any part in that.

Reddit isn't our platform, nor are they typically fond of corporations owning communities related to their businesses on it, which is why we'd prefer to use a community run one. MisterWoodhouse has been a part of the management team for a lot of subreddit, large ones too and always enforce Reddit's rules fully, whilst being 100% impartial. I know folks are upset because they think he's being biased, but that isn't the case. He's always allowed folks to be critical of our choices and our team, as long as they're upholding Reddit's TOS.
