I thought there would be people here who may be interested in knowing how stressful it is to moderate RPG Net.
Spoiler: It is very stressful.
No surprises, they have been complaining about the stress of moderating ever since... hum, ever since they tightened up moderation into the current bureaucratic nightmare? So more than thirteen years. The mods have been burned out, testy, and feeling put upon. Some have burned out altogether and abdicated (horrormod Darren McLellan), while some (like Cessna) are just constantly frustrated about Having To Do Hard Decisions. It gets brought up as a conversation topic every now and then, but nothing happens, and the cycle continues.
There should be no surprise. A petty, bureaucratic system of repression breeds stress, burnout, and resentment; and nowhere more so than among the bureaucrats doing the unending work of repression. The obsessive pedantry and over-regulation of discussion on RPGNet, the periodic, convulsive purging of wrong-thinkers (by now almost exclusively hard leftists themselves) naturally produces a nasty, unpleasant environment nobody really enjoys. Welcome to communism. Remember: this time, you wanted it.
