I wasn't aware of that situation. That's good to see that it's been done successfully before. Hopefully, we can do the same.

As a former /r/xkcd subscriber who just switched over to the new sub (I saw something about this a week ago but the comments were already too deleted for me to figure out what was going on, so this is where I finally found out), PLEASE just do that. Don't pay those morons ACTUAL REAL NOT-INTERNET MONEY just to get a subreddit name back. Keep getting the word out and the "free market" will decide that /r/xkcdcomics is the main subreddit. All that matters is the users, not the name.
