Everyone loves to joke about how moderators are “jannies” and “free labor” but let’s be honest, all the power mods that have control of dozens of subs are making money off it. Political/news subs have loads of value to groups with agendas, and non-political subs still have value to corporations that want to advertise their products.

The only thing Sydrah did that was unique was getting caught.

Wholeheartedly agree.

I always apply the adage: ‘if it can be done it is being done’.
