Do you think that people are actively trying to 'infiltrate' subreddits, or is it possible that reddit's audience is simply changing and the new users / admins are changing the rules?
- adnzzzzZ 12y agoThere are moderators that moderate over 200 subreddits. I'm not willing to call that infiltration (moderation is a hard job to do and it happens that few people are interested in it, which means finding someone reliable is hard, which means users tend to accumulate moderation positions), but they can't be doing a good job at it at least. This is a particularly charged thread with an example: https://np.reddit.com/r/redditrequest/comments/2v717g/requesting_rmetaredditcancer_all_mods_are/ https://np.reddit.com/r/redditrequest/comments/2v717g/reques... I'm not sure how voat intends to solve this since users can just create new accounts to bypass the 10 subreddit limit.
- sergiotapia 12y agoI absolutely think they are infiltrating subreddits, it's been proven without a doubt. Just one example, how can one person actively moderate more than 5 subreddits? I used to be a mod for /r/smite but quit after 2 weeks because it was just too much work. And /r/smite isn't even that big! :)
