As you have probably noticed, r/GlobalOffensive is still private in protest, due to Reddit’s recent API changes, which you can read more about in the link:

Due to the lack of meaningful change, we will remain private for the time being. We will re-evaluate our stance on the 19th of June and will keep you updated in the relevant channels, as we go along with this extension.
If you wish to continue discussing CS in general you can join the Discord discord.gg/cs-2 or stay here on kbin.
Good. The only way this was ever going to have an effect is if it lasted longer than two days. Even a week might not be enough.
We need to scare advertisers by the lack of content so Reddit starts losing revenue and ends up having to act (which is already starting to happen by the way).
I’m beyond glad to see subs take a stand of indefinite (or prolonged) darkness. Maybe Spaz will give up the “it’ll blow over” stance when subs just don’t come back after continued evaluation.
