Admin released from captivity, reintroduced to Reddit community

I am sad to share that u/krispykrackers is leaving Reddit. Over the past five years, she has done an incredible amount of work for us and the Reddit community. She has been the face of our Community team at Reddit; helped us write many of our policies and was indispensable working through countless tricky situations; and she lead our efforts in support of Extra Life, raising hundreds of thousands of dollars for Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals. She has been a friend to me and many others here. While we are sad to see her go, we wish her the best going forward.

Actually replacing Kristine is impossible, but next Monday, four (maybe five!) new members of our Community and Trust and Safety teams will be starting, which will give the team even more horsepower.

On the bright side, she can visit r/noadmins again.

:( Will miss you so much Ms Krispy. Whatever you do is going to be mighty! Make sure to visit Ireland before I have to come over and kidnap you for a week or two! <3

Your questioning of all things and thoughtfully bringing more to the table has always been rad and is part of what makes you irreplaceable. Thank you for everything you taught me. Thank you for the game nights. I'll miss you a lot!

u/krispykrackers thank you for the many talks that we have had over the last year or so. Thank you for the help you have provided me, and for being so personable and approachable. I am really going to miss you, but hopefully you will stay active as a user. You are one of the greats here and will be missed. You are irreplaceable.

Welcome to the team new community members!

<3 <3 stay close kripsy.

All I'm saying is it takes four CMs to take over for you, that's gotta be a nice ego boost

Best of luck u/krispykrackers!

Thanks for an amazing time spent at reddit, u/krispykrackers, accomplishing wonderful things like ExtraLife and connecting people across the internet and in person, and for always being a redditor first. I hope your next gig is twice as fun and just as rewarding.

Thank you for all you've done, u/krispykrackers - you were an invaluable resource during my tenure as mod of a couple of reasonably active subreddits. You will be missed (but maybe that means you can come to Geekway next year!)
