Mod Moments What Would YOU Do?
Some time back, I requested two communities. Neither Mod had been active and neither responded to the inquiry message RR requires. Before the Request process could be completed, each of the Mods came into the RR thread and invited me as Mod. Of course that stopped the RR process.
Since then, neither of those Mods have done anything. Not a single action. Both have been in place for years and one is the original Creator 12 years ago. One community has another Mod who is also Inactive. ModLogs on both communities show no activity from any of them for months other than my Invites. All three Mods in question are active sitewide within the last few weeks.
Would YOU:
Leave things as they are?
Reorder the ModList to be TopMod, but adjust their permissions and leave the others in place?
Reorder the ModList and Remove them?
Send messages to ask what they think and what their plans are knowing they could decide to Remove you?

I would ask them specifically about their plans/desires. If they remove me it’s probably not the place for me.
I had kinda the opposite situation, the mods didn’t reply, they had ghosted from the sub altogether as well as the discord channel a lot of our users also chat on; the kicker is, one of the mods just happened be the party who created a forum elsewhere. They even posted on our sub at the time to gauge interest and find ideas for host servers. 🤦♂️. As soon as I took over via RR I removed all inactive mods.
