You're oversimplifying a complex situation to the point of adding nothing to the discussion.

I am a bot. (Info / Contact)

I feel the same way about /r/drama

4 bots, 5 active human mods, 4 mods who were inactive pretty much from day 1.

Can we have a do-over on /r/physics?

/r/physics should be a deutsch physik sub :^)

*Deutsche

delete this

Delet this.

What about us physicists who don't speak Dutch?

Don't worry, Frisian speakers are also welcome :)

Please come back! Save us! :D

Are we all going to talk in drama over our personal drama?

please do

Dramaception?

Why does physics even exist? Its just engineering fan fiction.

I'm an engineer and my best friend is a physicist... This joke is going to get some mileage.

/u/quaz4r should step down with immediate effect, delete their account and set fire to their computer for the disgrace they brought upon that subreddit

Maybe also sticky posts of your tainthole

Every day for the past two years this has been my routine: I get up early and clean out the spam, the shitposts, the kickstarters, the shitty youtubers, the lazy bloggers, the clickbaity microtransaction farmers. Then I notify the sincere posters who don't know the rules that they should move their posts into the appropriate thread, or to r/askphysics. Then I deal with our regular crackpots/trolls who periodically create new accounts to sneak back into the sub to tell us that the luminiferous aether is dark matter and that the Unruh effect can make microwave ovens fly. Then, I take copious notes on which users like to unload on naifs and young'uns, and step in when it turns into harassment. Then I might spend some time writing bots to look for brigaders and other coordinated attackers of the sub. Like I said, I have done this every day for the last two, almost three, years.

Haha yeah those cucks haha haaaaaaaaa......

When will being a forum moderator be recognised as the mental illness it is?

I mean who doesn't recognize that? (Besides mods)

/u/carbonrodofphysics send me nudes and I'll use my connections to get you the top spot.

Buncha nerds getting their glasses all fogged up.

Lol. /u/CarbonRodOfPhysics and /u/Wodashit trying so hard to justify the wasteland that is their lives.

/u/quaz4r /u/CarbonRodOfPhysics /u/Wodashit

I believe I have a solution to your predicament. Obviously the lower mods of /r/physics are feeling underappreciated for their hard work and dedication. While the position of top mod is a very prestigious title that one should not give up easily, there is another way to make sure your other mods understand that they are appreciated and trusted.

Hot pockets. Weekly payments of hot pockets delivered directly to their doorstep. Once they see this show of kindness and compassion, they will understand that you do care for them, and that you would not remove their power for no reason.

/u/CarbonRodOfPhysics sounds like an angry woman who thinks she should get more attention.

Its /r/physics not /r/makeupaddiction. Everyone knows women can't do science because many of the tools (telescopes, microscopes, test tubes, etc.) are too phallic and they can't control their urges.

/u/quaz4r ETA until your torture squads reach the traitorous worms attempting to undermine your glorious regime?

MODDING IS SERIOUS FUCKING BUSINESS

Who wants to be a mod? Really, it seems like way too much work.
