There are a lot of communities that were created in the last week but never had any kind of interaction or their mods never started to post to attract people (they don't even have rules or a description).
Will there be some kind of cleanup or will it stay there until someone asks to take over it?

Well but the reality is that /more/ people will buy knock-off Pepsi if PepsiCo allows critical posts to be seen. When they censor for brand-protection, no one knows except the person they censored. Sure the quietly censored people (who likely already boycott Pepsi) will boycott but everyone else unwittingly enjoys their Pepsi-loving forum.

Unlike #Reddit there is a mod log. That helps a little but probably not many users look at that.
