r/ModSupport • u/ShitShowPending • 1d ago

Admin Replied 2 accounts

I managed to get myself into a bit of a Reddit account/mod situation and could use some help figuring out how to fix it.

I have two separate communities and two accounts:

• r/MidnightMisfits49801 is one community. My ShitshowPending account currently only shows as a regular user there, but I need u/ShitshowPending to have moderator access.

• u/ShitshowPending is a completely separate community. My r/MidnightMisfits49801 account has moderator access there, but that account was shut down and I can no longer use it.

Basically, the account I can actually use needs moderator access to r/MidnightMisfits49801, and right now I don’t have a usable moderator account there to make the change myself.

Is there a way to get u/ShitshowPending added/restored as a moderator of r/MidnightMisfits49801 when the previous account is no longer accessible?

Any help would be appreciated because I have apparently created my own tiny Reddit identity crisis. 😂

This is entirely to confusing to figure out. You keep saying accounts, and using r/ and saying community but using u/.

You need to write this out in a legible way, because this is a mess.

u/ is a user account, r/ is a subreddit. You only have one community. Someone on the moderator team of the community needs to invite your user account as a moderator.

If there are no moderators, you will need to contact admin to be added back (assuming you accidently left it)?

Sorry, someone wrote it for me. My original one i was working on. Got banned for some reason the day after I signed up. So I started another community account an it labeled it user. I wasn't able to have access to the first on until yesterday. I've already been building my current community. I need to be a mod on tye 2nd account.
