      Wasnt that back when you could make anyone a mod, without their permission?

      If we’re gonna point to things that spez actively has done, then theres plenty of shit…

        It is entirely possible he was tagged as a mod without knowing. At first. But if he wanted to he could have immediately removed himself. And then there’s the fact that the main mod of that sub was given some kind of special custom flare

            Honestly I can’t remember either? But I remember for sure it was something unique that was given to him by the administrators.
