Being a mod is a labor of love. If they don't love it any more, they'll leave. They're currently trying to save Reddit from making that happen.
The execs don't seem to understand this.

Slugs eat my garden. They gotta go.
I'd feel the same way about moles, but I don't actually have those, so they can stay cute.

I asked on the guitar reddit but I guess that's not allowed and the mods took the whole site down.
