Reddit can pay mods, just like every other social network does. Not rocket science, and if they did it just for the top ones, wouldn't cost that much.

- CamelCaseName 3y agoReddit can largely automate moderation. It's not hard, but... there are a lot of not hard things that Reddit screws up. If this was even 1 year ago, things would be different. But it's not. (I moderate a major subreddit)
- beezlewax 3y agoWhy work for free?
- unsupp0rted 3y agoIf not paid in dollars, mods get paid in power and authority. Interacting with mods who accept power and authority as payment goes about how you’d expect.
- CamelCaseName 3y agoBecause I'm an idiot. There is something wrong with me that in the 90-9-1 rule, I need to be the 1%. I see a forum, and I can't stop myself from commenting or posting. Getting invited to moderate happens naturally after that. I wish I was the 90%.
