And, if you are comfortable with sharing, what are some of the worst things that you’ve seen?
Most things are ads, spam or people reporting comments they politically disagree with.
There was a troll spamming cp some time ago, but that was before my time as a mod / admin.
people reporting comments they politically disagree with.
Wouldn’t this be mod abuse?
You might have misinterpreted it. It referes to users falsely reporting users they disagree with. This often happens in the context of political discussions.
What I didn’t mean is removing comments I personally disagree with. This would indeed be mod abuse.
Sorry I meant that idiots flooding mods with false reports is abuse of mods ie creating extra work for the mod and taking hsi time away from the actual job.
I can see threat actors using this tactic to wear down the mod team.
