While I understand where this is coming from, I'm asking not to do this. Given the recent amount of "drama" in Go community, I don't think it would be wise to add additional dividing factors. If Go Core team is concerned about their messages integrity, I think we can just remove "Official Go" title, and post official responses in other places (blog?). The removal of /r/golang will, at best, result in new "unofficial" subreddit. At worse it will be long a bloody debate with Reddit administration about who actually own rights to /golang sub. In both cases, people will lose trust and this will result in additional communication issues.
Currently /r/golang is mostly used for "show the project\library" and "ask for help \ clarification". Personally, I found several interesting projects during my "watch RSS" daily routine, and I would really very sad to loose it. It also makes easier to contact with other subreddits when the interesting discussion arises. It also allows some additional analytics for parsers. And while I agree that Reddit has people who have nothing but hate, the amount of decent and civilized persons who just like to talk on a single platform, instead of multiple separate ones, is much bigger there. Again - the "admins are editing messages" is bad, but deleting sub and those forcing many people to find a new place, or stop communicating with the community altogether, is worse. I think in times like this we should prove our first goal of CoC - "Treat everyone with respect and kindness". Sorry for my english in advance.
