Notes -
Before my Reddit account had been banned years ago I sometimes would drop in on occasion and debate in PPD and I swear, none of the mods knew what a “debate” actually was, as they intrinsically produce friction and stir up tense conflict between competing ideas.
One of them in particular was so nitpicky and selective as well as thin skinned, on one occasion I’d had enough and just choose to roast and antagonize the shit out of her and give her a taste of her own medicine. If you were too lighthearted and cavalier she’d say “Don’t troll,” and would accuse you of being insincere. If you were too pointed and logical she’d say “Be civil,” and would accuse you of being aggressive. And she’d do this to everybody she disagreed with. On this particular day she threw her hat into the ring and tried engaging my argument so I replied back to her “Don’t troll.” And then a bunch of us started attacking her as a shit moderator and we would up getting permabanned.
Turned out like 6 months later, there was so much protest from people she’d been removed as a mod and to my knowledge nobody had seen her since. I rarely spend that much time online though. Good riddance either way.
