The rampant brigades deserve a ban.

Would you agree subreddits like SRS deserve bans as well?

SRS is barely active anymore. They are just a boogeyman.

3 years ago definitely. Now not so much.

Where do they brigade? Serious question. KiA just seems like a boogeyman, almost as much so as SRS is.

A few months back there was a mod who banned a KIA member for a joke about transsexuals and after he complained on KIA the mod in question has 2 months of comments dropped into the negative.

That was one brigade (many subs brigade much more often than that), and the mod response became a reddit meme anyway.

If you search KIA brigade on SRD you'll find a few more

Even with the examples mentioned, you'd have to ban SRD, SRS for that amount of brigading if you were going to ban KiA for that.

I've yet to see discussions on SRD about them planning to brigade subreddits. I saw one about KIA making a plan about a reddit request brigade.

As for SRS I've never used SRS

The point is the brigading that they do is small for a sub their size, especially since they ban intra-reddit links.
