- ModSupport
This is the post history from a single user today:
We are getting spam from this and similar users advocating for the blackout. Now, I know it's important to get the word out on things that matter to us, but it's not OK (especially as mods) to spam communities you don't even participate in.
This is astroturfing and spammy. Period. As mods you should know better. Please stop.

Some subs also can't participate in the blackout.
For example, it's all fine and dandy if somewhere like /r/baseball or /r/soccer goes dark for a day or two, but it's not okay if a sub like /r/SuicideWatch or /r/selfharm goes dark.
The support subs have a duty to be there for their users.
Yes because getting zero updongs or one reply saying "Don't do it, you are loved" or getting spammed with the suicide hotline is going to bring folx back from the brink. Those subs should be shut down tbh.

I had this issue 5 times in the last 48 hours in /r/Spain. 4 were confirmed mods, the other was an alt.
So yes, it is a mod problem.
And yes, I reported this. But it's both important for admins and mods to be aware of this issue.
-15 No, it's not a mod problem. Apparently it's a problem with the Spanish.
See what I did there, grouped an entire population together based on a tenuous link. If you have an issue with that, but can't see an issue with the way you're grouping them, then you're the problem.
None of those users were Spanish, by the way. Zero interaction in any community from Spain or Spanish speaking.
Again, if you fail to see an issue, i won't convince you otherwise, but getting mod spam is a problem.
Again, it's not mod spam. It's user spam. When you understand that, you'll be one step closer to the rest of what I said.
Nice aggressiveness. I already told you 4 confirmed mods did this as well. I will no longer reply to you.
A person that is a mod of completely different subs did it, but that doesn't make it a mod issue. Your complete and utter failure to realize that belonging to one group and doing something doesn't make it an issue from the entire group is telling. Typical Spanish belligerence.
Again: See what I did there, grouped an entire population together based on a tenuous link. If you have an issue with that, but can't see an issue with the way you're grouping them, then you're the problem.

Havent like 99% of the claims about the API changes been shown to be complete bullshit at this point? Pushshift isn't coming back and all the mod tools and shit are safe it seems. This is a tag team of absolute r-slurred inability to read, or possibly even look into what's happening and a set up for self aggrandizement. Like I'm pretty sure they're all going to pat themselves on the back and declare We did it! despite reddit not changing shit.

The main claim is that third party apps won't be able to pay the high price. That's still true.
Your comment reads like /r/outoftheloop where a redditor declares something to be true in an effort to set a narrative rather than because that thing is actually true. You're probably less fake and straight than that sub, but you've got the fake and straight vibe.

It's about ego now. They have never had admins tell them "nope, sorry frick off" but they also never tried to get Reddit to lose $20 million, so now they are finding out the hard way that Reddit only gave them what they wanted before because The_Donald and NoNewNormal weren't worth money and admins only tolerate them to keep them working for free.
