- Sacho 10y agoSorry to nitpick, but I'd like to point out that "administrators" and "moderators" are two different groups in Reddit. "Administrators"(which spez is part of) are Reddit staff; Moderators are users who create a subreddit or are enlisted to help manage it; Moderators do not have the power to edit user comments.
