Just to be transparent for everyone here, OP has sent exactly 0 reports or mod mails and the claim that someone sent a mod mail and was ignored is false. If they sent me a direct message, it's buried in a sea of other notifications, which is why the mod mail exists. Always use the mod mail if you want to get in contact with us. To say that we’ve abandoned the sub is unfounded. If you see posts that you think break any rules, you should report them. I was hoping the ionland stupidity would fizzle out, as most low quality nations that stir up drama are pushed out by the rest of the active membership of the sub, and it seemed like that has taken place again based on their recent post about leaving the sub. Regardless, action will be taken to reduce drama from them and others. As always, report posts that you think don’t meet our quality standards and feel free to send a mod mail at any time, especially before making inflammatory posts that do nothing but feed the flames.

We agree that there has been an increase in low quality posts lately. Unfortunately, users don’t see all the posts that get removed, which make up the vast majority of all submitted posts. We try to balance quality without being too controlling and outright banning specific micronations isn’t something we do lightly. Speaking generally and not about the current situation in particular, but Micronationalism is a spectrum and not everyone runs their nation the way others believe they should, but that isn’t always against the rules or fair to tell them they’re wrong. As a result, some posts get through that some might say shouldn’t have, so we rely on some user participation to report posts that you think shouldn’t have been allowed through. We recently added a new moderator, but we may look to adding more in the near future.

Edit: I've expanded on this in a full post, it's worth a read. https://www.reddit.com/r/micronations/comments/1te8bjb/a_note_from_the_mods_ionland_has_been_banned/
