On the old Chapo subreddit, the sub was made private for like a day or something as a bit. A very angry person made a lengthy text post that was titled something like "Closing the Sub as a Bit Was NOT Ok"

Yeah that's what I remember, the part I was missing was from someone else who commented that they did it because they reached 42069 or 69420 members. I mean I knew it was something ridiculous but I forgot it was THAT ridiculous. Those were the days

Yeah, that place still had a bit of the reddit stench on it, but its heyday was probably the most active I was on that web-site. So many great posters.

I miss aspects of it sometimes, but the community here is so much better.

Didn't it have something to with avengers too?

Maybe in the comments? It got pretty wacky in there. The OP I think was mostly saying that it was debilitating to the members of the community that were part of vulnerable communities to close a subreddit for a day.
