Mod means nothing -- I'm a reddit mod. Admin is paid employee of reddit with completely different access level. A planted story by a mod is still within the grounds of "astroturfing" accusing reddit admins is another order of magnitude of corruption higher. Like I said I don't think reddit admins are doing it but the author does seem to imply it.
- yanderekko 6y agoMod doesn't mean nothing. A lot of the powerusers also moderate major subs and can spike opposing content and users who would interfere with their clout-chasing, and appeal to sympathetic admins to enforce "harassment" provisions if their manipulations were being critically discussed in places on Reddit that are beyond their reach. I mean, is there any defensible reasons for why we often see the top powerusers on these subs also act as mods? I'm sure that they aren't behaving as "normal" mods.
