It's interesting to see the site treat it's unpaid workers more and more like low level employees. I guess capitalists just can't help themselves.
The mods under discussion are the ones that mod more than FIVE large communities. if those people haven't figured out a way to make that a paying gig, then they're doing it wrong.
Speaking as a former top 1%er redditor... figuring out how to do it and being willing to do it are two completely different things.
