Oh damn. I don’t know if it was you, but a while back there was drama on the sub because a mod (who happened to be a hexbear user) deleted some anti-communism posts and there were multiple threads on the sub about it. The mod mentioned here how the other mods were passive and had no idea what was going on lol

Probably me at the time? Maybe? I don't remember tbh. Mod team activity stats change fairly regularly depending on availability and whoever is no-lifing it most at the time.

Like, whoever is more online and decides to do the modqueue clearance will always end up having more stats. Even if another person comes in once a day to check it, if there's no modqueue they're getting no stats.

Usually what tends to happen is one person ends up being the main mod for a while then they get busy with offline stuff, modqueue piles up, then someone notices and ends up taking on the role of main mod. Then that repeats again when they eventually get sidetracked by something else.

I see this pattern play out a lot.

Oh and there'll be big bursts of activity when a lot of mods get temporary high-interest in the space if some huge drama kicks off.
