That's a harsh accusation. I moderate bc i love the topic and want to encourage others.
Banning and blocking posts isnt the powertrip ppl think. It's not like being a cop and stealing cash, cocaine, and raping hookers.
It's more "oh another bot is posting chat room ads in bad grammar.
Ive seen many interesting forums falter bc a mod gets a six month interest and never logs back in again, forgets their password to their alt, etc.
And reddit already has AI duh to delete spam. It'a just not 100% so ppl have to do it.
Also mods do more than just enforce rules. It'a more abt setting the tone through pinned comments, certain flair and CSS etc. Also, intelligent cross-posting. You know, all kinds of nurturing shit. That takes TLC and passion. Lots of people like my subs but no one ever wants to help mod them.
