I modded a couple of million user subs, and ended up replacing all of my posts with the same text before never logging in again. Wonder if I've been removed from any of them yet.

Side note, my life has improved so much after not doing free work for reddit. The things I'd see everyday.. looking back I'd never do it again.

I learned the "Don't be a mod for free" lesson back in the IRC days. It's not worth the mental strain, even if it's for a community you love.

Smart man, I will hate you less in the future for being a fucking mod.
