    There’s a subreddit r/redditrequest where users can request to be a mod of an unmoderated community. Although reddit might hand pick some consistent posters for the larger subs.

      r/RedditRequest is useless. I requested multiple times to take over inactive and blank that were being held by squatters. Each time, Reddit simply ignored the request.

      Here’s an idea if you have free time and feel like trolling: request those powers and if granted; abuse those new and fancy kapo powers until you get stripped of them and banned?

      This is what’s happening. I forget what subreddit it was, but a former reddit mod posted that he and his mod team were all removed as mods, banned for a week, and the subreddit they modded was posted to r/redditrequest after they turned their sub into a NSFW subreddit.
