That’d piss off a lot of mods who moderate huge subreddits in their free time for Reddit…imagine if those mods got mad and decided to let inappropriate things through that drew negative media attention? Doubt Reddit wants that press when they want to IPO soon

they are scared that reddit might remove them. mods seem to be a special category with pathological attachment to free labour that they see as their own instrument of power.
