I saw this random r/ModSupport post and was surprised that an admin accidentally revealed a random admin account.

Reddit got caught unprepared by the protests, they are probably working on a shadow mod feature and forgot to hide it from the log. Deleting an already removed post is a fairly inconspicuous way to demo the feature.

After mods, bans, and shadow bans, we have shadow mods. We should have expected it.

This sounds like the progression of a story arc in a terrible anime, honestly.

Next they'll get superbans and eventually supermods

But first shadowmods getting shadowbanned. It's almost beautiful.

It better be set in the UK because the opposition government are called shadow cabinet with a shadow treasure, shadow foreign minister, shadow health minister.

That's it.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.
