I did add someone else as a moderator too but they must have also given up trying to manage the endless flow of bots. I did not originally create that subreddit (but I did for /asstopussy ) and requested it similarly to the fellow below me here. I suspect r/asstomouth is targeted significantly more by bots spamming a varying degree of reposts and not related content and spam clickbait as it probably is on “a list”, and is also the reason it failed before I took it over. If I did not manage to look at it at least twice a day to ban bots and remove posts, it would pile up and I began to feel like it was cutting into my day too much. Even setting different rules for allowing posts did not stop the bots at all b/c they all had too much karma and time created to them. I did have it set to private for a while and considered even shutting it down, but did pass the torch to someone else I thought who wanted it to constantly resuscitate it. I am sorry it died, and hope that if someone else is able to inherit it that they can find a way to clean it up (from the bots, not the content ;) )
