You don’t even notice the quiet mods. If they’re doing their job right, it can seem like they’re not doing anything. If they ban your for misspelling Ganon on a Zelda sub or demand you write an apology essay for pointing out that Joe Biden has been creepy on a politics sub then they are doing doing it for power.
