    0.1 % is what they say. Why are they even still there after all that happened? Is “power” really that important to everyone?

        I never met one on reddit who wasn’t just getting off on the power trip. I think the nature of that role just draws a certain type who wants to do a specific thing

          The ones who don’t, you never meet.

          *looks around* 👀

          I only mod /r/WestAllis because it was locked from new submissions; I just wanted to reopen it for public discussion and to promote a local board game gathering I run there (which has gotten maybe one redditor who is also on Facebook, which is where the bulk of promotion happens anyway). So, there: you have now met at least one, lol.

            yeah in retrospect that was probably pretty harsh. there’s probably a lot of moderators I interacted with that I just didn’t even realize were chill. also, good on you. 😁👍
