automod filters made reddit an absolute nightmare. pouring my heart out on the depression sub and getting it removed because it didn't have 300 characters or it was image post saturday or god knows what. you basically just don't get to post on any sizable sub

before it was at least a lottery! post, see if people will like it! but now you can't even get a post through!

there are 50 automod filters on everything, forbidden words or topics, perfectly good questions cast away to megathreads no one reads!

it's a dire, awful landscape, and really terrible user experience, having something on your chest and wanting to post, but oh hey this won't be posted until our 'mod team' 'reviews' it. isn't that what voting is for? please stop treating me like a spambot or troll by default!

Umm accountable. Held accountable. You chopped it off there. And I like being held accountable. Fire me any time you like for any reason. Not like I’m actually doing anything special.

I like….Fire”

Ah, yes, I agree, perfect for roasting the marshmallows

Honestly, one day I might get bored and drunk and just post all kinds of awful things all over and violate the guidelines for moderators. I’ll be forcibly removed. This really can happen because I’m not against it and not opposed to getting ripped off my ass and getting fired for a job that isn’t actually a job. Will I miss being a moderator? No. Will I care much? No. Watch me to learn how to be just a moderator and not be some creeper in his mom’s basement with no life aged 35 or something. Who knows? Maybe I’ll get banned as a moderator for saying exactly what I’ve just said because I’ve been so not thinking about the code of conduct or the rules of this community. My whole self value is not invested in this. I’m into other things and have an actual life. I also like to drink booze.

I think you’ll be okay, if anything just switch to an alt account before you start drinking lol

LMAO what’s the fun in that? Much better to be the drunk ass mod who was removed as a mod and just navigate the town. Netflix series are made of this. I’m never giving up this userid. It is me. I might even gat more popular with the Reddit people. I can be that sexy guy that just came out of jail. Like on Netflix. Or Amazon prime.
