Someone created the ChronicPain community and then abandoned it. I have messaged this person with no response. They haven’t posted, commented, or anything since they made it.
It’s probably a widespread issue but ChronicPain is a support group for those who suffer from it. Is the only real option to create a second one or can someone who abandons a community be removed?
this is going to be happening a lot with the way that reddit is going right now. lots of community names are being squatted by trolls for no reason than to piss other poeple off.
what you can do tho is ask the administrators of the instance, in this case Ruud

You can make a non-dead version of the community on another instance!
But what if it’s dead on my instance, and I don’t want to make an account on another instance for the sake of managing a community?
As a sort of workaround you could create the community on a new account and then add your current account as a mod
Does the community prevent you from posting? If not, just use it
That doesn’t solve the issue of moderating it, or adding to the sidebar/setting.
What’s happening on the community that you need the moderator?
Nothing specific. I just think it’s important that there is a moderator there just in case. Just because something hasn’t happened doesn’t mean something won’t happen
Ah, I hear ya. Just thought there was some drama or something keeping you from using the community in its current state.
