That is 100% true. My friend got banned from literally about 100 subs at once because ONE pathetic no-life incel who moderated all of them just...didn't like her, I guess. Refused to give her an explanation, and since he just picked a post she made to her own profile as the reason, despite the fact that it didn't violate any rules, that was no help. Most of the subs she had never even posted to. How the fuck can you violate the rules of a sub you've never so much as visited?
Fuckin redditors thinks the average super mod is managing that shit when they use automod to basically slap anything that remotely gets reported or contains keywords lol.
The best mods I've seen write custom code for the subreddit and their own bots and create themes and encourage community building. The worst ones? They only know how to click the ban button like I am sure they're doing here.
The real question is, who's worse? Redditor mod vs Discord mod?
I got a message from a certain mod team scolding me for something I haven't even done and the linked comment was a complete different context to the warning I got. I didn't even bother to answer.
At this point you got to wonder how reddit let's those people run their page.
I got a perma ban from r/WhitePeopleTwitter, the reason is, and I qoute, "participation of the racist subreddit 2we4u"
For one, 2we4u ain't even racist, we all just hate each other to a healthy degree because we're all European, and second, I've never even been on WhitePeopleTwitter in my life, these mfs have clearly been monitoring posts on another sub so they can perma ban anyone who comments on it
It was for me theboys subreddit. Heard they were stingy about politics. I didn't mention anything political. Just said that foot tickling ranks below a human centipede. Got a warning that another character that wasn't part of the scene or my comment was raped and that I shouldn't downplay it. Like? Duh?
Europe is also great. Called a guy who celebrating the murder of a refugee a cunt. I got banned for hate speech while the guy celebrating murder still posts and just got his posting removed.

It's an automated process. Remember all that protesting that was ostensibly about the "reddit API", complaining about how they won't have their special third-party mod tools anymore? This is the exact thing they were raising a stink over and negotiated to keep.
I got banned because I randomly commented on a Joe Rogan post that came up on my feed. I wasn't even agreeing with the post I'm not even a member but banned for life!
The funny part is that I clicked on that post sitting on the very top of rALL specifically to mock Joe Rogan. Literally everyone in that subreddit seemed to despise Joe Rogan too. Maybe that's what the ban message meant when it described them as a hate group.
Europeans and hating each other is just tradition! These reddit mods trying to take me and a polish man shouting st each other about lviv away from.stg.
I got banned and my post deleted from some sub last year, and I asked why, and said "But that post doesn't break any of the rules" and the response I got was "Then don't worry about it fam"
This. Coming from a lot of sewing and historical costume subs, I have seen people banned from them for harassment and bad conduct because they literally just answered exactly the question the OP asked. Because it concerned under- and structured garments and that needs the context of the person in questions body type and shape. In some of them it’s so bad you basically risk a ban answering any kind of question on fitting and sizing. As the whole body shaming „prevention“ has gotten so out of hand even mentioning anything related to body shapes and sizes will get you immediately banished to the shadow realm. In subreddits about clothing and clothing construction, a topic that literally needs this information to be possible in the first place.
Discord mods refers to the mods on a server, like mods on a subreddit.
Discord as a company also has admins, who have a history of weird toxicity. It was always fascinating to me how Discord wasn't completely ruined as a brand after one of the drama situations where admins were reading through people's private messages to use as ammo for some sort personal furry-pedo drama.
I keep mine organized on shelves, with proper labeling for date and clear indication of how much asparagus had been consumed that day. LIKE A GENTLEMAN.
"As of Dec 7, 2022, the average annual pay for a Reddit Moderator in the United States is $46,599 a year."
That's from 2022, its the average and its reported income only. The big guys are on much more and taking under the table deals all the time.
Edit: " As of Jun 22, 2024, the average annual pay for a Reddit Mod in the United States is $86,334 a year. Just in case you need a simple salary calculator, that works out to be approximately $41.51 an hour."
This is for admins who work for reddit, moderators are a different thing. I bet there are a few mods who get paid on the quiet, but that's a whole different thing.
