Excerpt from the text:

However, effective immediately, we plan to discontinue the following activities that we performed, as volunteer moderators, that took up a huge amount of our time and effort, both from a communication and coordination standpoint and from an IT/secure operations standpoint:

  1. Active solicitation of celebrities or high profile figures to do AMAs.
  2. Email and modmail coordination with celebrities and high profile figures and their PR teams to facilitate, educate, and operate AMAs. (We will still be available to answer questions about posting, though response time may vary).
  3. Running and maintaining a website for scheduling of AMAs with pre-verification and proof, as well as social media promotion.
  4. Maintaining a current up-to-date sidebar calendar of scheduled AMAs, with schedule reminders for users.
  5. Sister subreddits with categorized cross-posts for easy following.
  6. Moderator confidential verification for AMAs.
  7. Running various bots, including automatic flairing of live posts
