I was a digg power user then transitioned to reddit when that all went to shit and my intended grift of making money through selling digg visibility disappeared.

I've run dozens of subreddits and still do although incredibly lazily like 99% of legacy reddit mods that have been in their positions for way too long.

I started the use of subreddits as hashtags via spamming /r/hailcorporate in response to every shill post on the site.

I even got a job in the game industry as an internet janitor too and have worked with EA, Ubi, Paradox, Sega and others. I firmly believe in that title for any online moderation and community management, all we do is keep things clean for everyone to enjoy an online space and ego in online moderation is a serious problem.

Ask me anything

    I don’t know if I’d be good at a political space, I’d be very tempted to suppress the right.

    I think that's kind of encouraged here.

      Sure but what right is there to suppress here? The only thing that needs modding are people with raging substance abuse problems and people with a personal grudge that have turned wreckers.

        Yeah, I thought that, but every time I take a look at the modlog it seems like there's a small fire every hour or more.
