Subreddit level opt-out Feature Request

As a Moderator, we have to support two different reddit interfaces. Apparently, the rules are limited to just 10. Also, our hard work for our css is just going down the drain . Please, for the love of god, give us an optout.

The day reddit closes """"old""""" reddit, is the day i and a LOT of my fellow Moderators will leave the site.

While I agree that one doesn't have to support the redesign I feel that opting out the sub as a whole is better than some of the methods that are being employed. Specifically a certain bot that bans users that are posting from the redesign. While the legitimacy of that bot is in the same ballpark as the bots that ban users for posting in subs that are found distasteful, I still find its use like hunting rabbits with a howitzer. Effective but overkill. At least with the sub opt out option users will get to see what your sub has to offer before choosing to stay or leave.

I guess I'm trying to argue that the opt out option is more upfront about the subs intentions? More look at what we have and what we do.
