Last week I published a comprehensive FAQ for /r/sailormoon. It's something that has been wanted by the community for some time. I myself have been a Sailor Moon fan for 20 years and I've kept up on most everything that's happened in the franchise in the English-speaking world, Japan, and elsewhere around the world. It's a small hobby and it brings me great joy. I wanted to share that information with you.
Last Christmas season I saw the distressed state of /r/sailormoon and since then i've been trying to get things together to spruce the place up for Crystal and a more activity. After all, we're closing in on 8k subscribers. Over the summer (middle of the year) I attempted to make a CSS for /r/sailormoon, but /u/nononao was very stubborn and hated everything despite the fact that I was playing around and trying to keep some of what /u/cherryichigousagi had already done (which was essentially copy-paste from other layouts). I admit, I gave up because revising code and then walking away for a few hours and coming back to it being nit picked when I wasn't even finished wasn't working for anyone.
The past month or so I've been trying to pick things back up. I'm a frequent contributor here and I see a lot of the same questions asked. Rather than write a different response or link to previous responses (which looks rude), I decided to update and publish my FAQ I wrote originally over summer. It was very well-received by the entire community and I was also able to answer other questions in the comments for people that may not follow the anime as closely as I have. I'm always happy to share my knowledge!
Several days ago I was nominated by the community to become a mod, which I would gladly accept given the opportunity. I'm well-versed in the show, I can make things look pretty, I am (real life) friends with the mods of /r/anime, and I'm familiar with reddit. A perfect match, no?
Today SMC aired, and like always, /u/nononao comes and changes the sticky. She makes a few posts, and fails to respond to the thread and then removes the FAQ because I linked to SM Collectibles and Moon Kitty. ?????

This is the very last plea I will make. Several people have suggested a new Sailor Moon subreddit, but unfortunately I don't think one could grow a subscriber base as large as /r/sailormoon elsewhere.
Please, let us have what we want. A community on reddit for Sailor Moon that is loved for, cared for, nurtured and beautiful like the show.
Please, either step down or appoint people who have a passion for Sailor Moon. You appointing /u/reseph and /u/cherryichigousagi last year failed to do anything because they have very little mod power and somewhat inactive.
