周三晚上，r/WallStreetBets subreddit自己的版主将它保密了不到一个小时，Reddit向大家证实了这一点——但现在，它又回来了，版主们自己发了一篇新帖子，并没有完全解释它为什么一开始就消失了。随着GameStop股价的快速上涨，论坛上的交易员在一定程度上推动了GameStop股价的上涨，subreddit最近几天的关注度显著上升。

“我们已经长成了我们梦寐以求的那种在晚上睡不好觉的时间里的体型，”mods的一篇新文章写道，你可以在这篇文章的底部完整地阅读，以防它消失。“我们有这么多的评论和意见，我们甚至不可能把它们全部读出来，更不用说作为版主对它们采取行动了，”帖子继续说，谈到社区如何也被禁止不和，以及他们如何认为Reddit的工具不足以缓和不良行为。

帖子还指向了一个名为@w**mod的Twitter账户，该账户未来将成为主持人团队的官方声音。

在subreddit是私有的期间，有一些不同的消息显示给访问者。当我在美国东部时间晚上7:06查看subreddit时，我看到这样一条消息：

We are experiencing technical difficulties based on unprecedented scale as a result of the newfound interest in WSB. We are unable to ensure Reddit’s content policy and the WSB rules are enforceable without a technology platform that can support automation of this enforcement. WSB will be back.

在此之前，该页面显示了这样一条信息：“WallStreetBets正在加载中，仅适用于已批准的提交者。在此期间，请享用一些意大利面“，然后链接到一个NSFW的视频，一名男子把意大利面放在他全身。

当r/WallStreetBets第一次被私有化时，信息上写着“like 4Chan found a Bloomberg Terminal”，这是subreddit被私有化之前的描述。

神秘的是，一些人声称，当r/华尔街投注变为私人时，他们失去了现有的访问权限：

周三早些时候，迪斯科禁止r/WallStreetBets服务器。该公司表示，这一不和谐被禁止，因为“在反复警告后继续允许可憎和歧视性内容”，subreddit上的许多帖子都含有冒犯性的语言。

以下是r/WallStreetBets版主的完整帖子：

We have grown to the kind of size we only dreamed of in the time it takes to get a bad nights sleep. We’ve got so many comments and submissi*** that we can’t possibly even read them all, let alone act on them as moderators. We wrote software to do most of the moderation for us but that software isn’t allowed to read the Reddit new feed fast enough and submit resp***es, and the admins haven’t given us special access despite asking for it.

We’re suffering from success and our Discord was the first casualty. You know as well as I do that if you gather 250k people in one spot someone is going to say something that makes you look bad. That room was golden and the people that run it are awesome. We blocked all bad words with a bot, which should be enough, but apparently if someone can say a bad word with weird unicode icelandic characters and someone can screenshot it you don’t get to hang out with your friends anymore. Discord did us dirty and I am not impressed with them destroying our community instead of stepping in with the wrench we may have needed to fix things, especially after we got over 1,000 server boosts. That is pretty unethical.

To add to this, people are co-opting our name on twitter. I won’t mention their accounts, but lots of handles with “w**” and “wallstreetbets” in them are pretending to speak for us. They’re saying things that we don’t agree with, driving traffic to derivative communities and shitty pixelated merch stores, and generally making it harder for us to define who we are. There’s also too much political bullshit in a community that was never ever political. The only way I want to occupy Wall St is in a suit myself or rent-free in the mind of a blown up short.

That is why I’m throwing my support behind the Twitter handle in general. We need a way to PUBLICLY reach out to the staff of the infrastructure that is failing us so the world can see that we aren’t doing anything wrong here if they don’t respond. We need to be able to respond directly to a reporter that is lying to the world about our clubhouse. We can’t be expected to meet any expectati*** when we aren’t given the tools we need.

That’s not to say I approve of every message or will even be in the loop for all of them, but it’s clear to me we can’t do nothing and we need a megaphone.

http://twitter.com/w**mod aka @w**mod is the only Twitter handle whose statements are directly from some part of the team.

We’ll do our best not to pretend to speak for you, but to try to speak with the volume our name now seems to command to get shit done for us.

更新1月27日，8:01PM东部时间：r/华尔街投注重新开放，与一个主持人的消息，我们已经添加。
