It’s true, we do have a lot of thankless work to do (I moderate a bunch of communities), but we also, or at least I do, try to promote community growth and discussion. I sort of view my jobs as much as an ambassador for the community as I am someone who enforces rules.
Were you just made a moderator of c/news, @jeffw? If so, congratulations!
Moderating a forum isn’t really a thing to be proud of or congratulate someone for squid.
“Oh you were just made a moderator? I’m sorry.” is more appropriate.
