Yep, another way is to choose abandoned from the list of magazines, soon it will be more sensibly sorted ;)

There's a 'jailbait' mag there that should just be deleted.
I've taken care of it. 🙂
The hero we needed o7
@daredevil hey how did you get rid of it altogether?
I just noticed we had a "frenworld" (copy of a subreddit that was notoriously racist, antisemitic etc) and requested ownership thinking I could delete it but now it's listed as a magazine I mod and I can't seem to either delete it or detatch myself from it. I don't want it listed under mags I mod! Help!
@Ernest @ernest @PugJesus
If memory serves the option is at the very bottom under the first page of the magazine panel.
@PugJesus you mean the Delete button? I hit that but all it did was change it to a "Restore" button.
I think this means people get "Empty" when they visit @frenworld. But the racist magazine is still listed on my profile as a magazine I moderate, which is the last thing I want.
Hm. The ones I deleted are removed from my profile.
Yes, I'm aware of this. The magazine is not publicly listed as a magazine you moderate -- I do not see it listed in your profile. I noticed this problem a little over a week ago. While cleaning up abandoned magazines, I noticed in my profile it still says I have about 70 magazines that I moderate. An issue has already been raised.

@daredevil sorry, I should have updated. I messaged Ernest and he took took it off my profile.
I didn't realise it was a known issue, I thought I was just glitching, sinci it hadn't happened to @PugJesus.
Glad to hear you got it taken care of.
I imagine transferring ownership is a manual process, but on the off chance it's automated, I've requested ownership and intend to delete it right after.
Seems like names like that should be in a 'if you create the mag you are automatically banned ).
Has showed up at the top of my screen among the random mags disproportionately over the past several months too. It's what keeps me off kbin when I'm in the office around people.
This is great. I dont want to request moderation on too many so I just picked a few that I think I could handle and communities I'd like to see developed. (Specifically the manga and bitwig magazine.)
Just a friendly reminder--claiming ownership/moderation privileges could just be a temporary thing. Implementing this system allows us the freedom to share and pass on the responsibility as our situations change. :) Best of luck with @manga and @bitwig.
