I’d understand if they were a random user, but a mod should already have at least some understanding about a community’s topic.
But worse to me are their comments in that post calling the people responding “childish trolls in this community”. I do not think that this is appropriate for a moderator.
“childish trolls in this community”, “this community is full of trolls”, “90% of folks here dont get the issue and rather troll”
That’s insulting? Quite civil words, compared to the words the community he is describing, use in that thread.
Yes. And that doesn’t excuse it; a moderator should be better than the community they moderate.
That’s honestly an unreasonable expectation of volunteers, and especially not one I’d want mods to measure themselves by. A mod who thinks he is better than the common users would be a massive asshole.
Nah, they are average human beings
