      “put in their place”?
      To me that has always seemed to talk from people that felt the need to punish people for not pandering to their ego.

        As did my great uncle pass down his wisdom from the early nineties IRC flame wars, “ASL " don’t feed the trolls”.

        If the community wanted it, nothing wrong with the moderators capitulating to the community. Reddit gets the moderation quality they pay for, and they’re paying their moderators negative money, with how things have been going. They can pony up if they want better moderation.

        What are they supposed to do, run roughshod all over their users?

      If the adult is the wife beater, sure…

      There is nothing adult about how reddit is behaving. It’s actually very childish and immature.

      Mods are not valued or respected by reddit whatsoever, despite working for free and caring about the quality of the community.

      But I’m glad it’s playing out in the open. Reddit will be an even bigger shit platform from now on.

      To me it’s fine. I don’t have to use reddit. :)
