And other people take what we say the wrong way because they fail to read rules and follow simple guidelines.
No reason to point the fingers at us. We all lead a very stressful job with not much reward and no pay, and seems everyone fails to realize this.
Imagine a group of mods supposed to be able to handle 10 million or so peers every day and all day. Sound fun? Easy? Nope, But we want it to be easy and fun for everyone else, so thats why we do it.
Are we assholes sometimes? Probably. But why? Same shit day in and day out, and sometimes that gets frustrating.
Word of advise if you think mods are 'nazis'...read the rules, and ACTUALLY read them.
And for the ones who think we are "handed" power, you have no clue. We worked to get where we are with no rewards.
But, I'm sure there are some mods/admin who take that too seriously, and it's unfortunate.
