Humans consume plenty of poisons recreationally, perhaps it's the same for ponies.

Reddit already has his content archived. Deleting it won't remove it from Reddit, they can still sell their corpus to whomever they want.

No. Reddit already has them archived. All you'll do is inconvenience real humans who might come across them via a search engine at some point in the future.

Equestrian ponies canonically put them in sandwiches.

So you think you can come to the Canadian border waving around a dead Canada goose and you'll be welcomed with open arms?

You'd be shot on sight. If we had any guns.

So if Linus Torvalds were to announce one day "I'm tired of Linux, time to burn it all down" that'd be fine? Someone else can just create a new operating system, after all.

The point here is that OP may have "created" the subreddit in the sense of clicking a few buttons and filling out some text fields, but at this point it's a community with 200,000 participants. Those participants also share in its ownership. Forcing them to jump through hoops recreating the whole thing just because OP's decided he wants a Viking funeral is selfish.

Yeah, as soon as he said "Goose, easy" I knew he was not Canadian material. Sorry, OP. Maybe try Mexico?

Then they can make a new sub and pointlessly use their own leg work.

The existing sub is right there. OP wants to walk away from it. There's absolutely no point to burning it to the ground and forcing someone else to do a bunch of work to recreate it, it's just petty.

I've had to deal with this sort of "if I can't have it nobody can" mentality in online communities before, helping rebuild the ruins of something that someone pointlessly destroyed on their way out the door, and it massively sucks. OP's just going to make everyone hate him.

Might not necessarily be as narcissistic as you imply. If this person created the sub, and is still the only mod, then it wouldn't really exist without them.

No, but maybe it can exist without him. Out of 200,000 subscribers someone could want to step up and take over.

The Reddit corporation doesn't give a fuck.

200,000 people might give a fuck.

America is currently at war with us, declared abruptly and out of nowhere. They just decided one day "we want to annex Canada!"

Even if Donald's presidency is short-lived and a new slightly saner and less stupid administration takes control, I don't think it's a good idea to be trusting the Americans any more.

We need to disentangle ourselves from any military dependence on such ridiculously unreliable "allies." I'm all for this.
