That bothered me less than whenever some thread got successful and a mod decided that their input deserved to be viewed as the top comment, so they pinned it to the thread. 95% of the time those comments had nothing to do with reddit moderation, just a normal comment that wouldn't have even been upvoted if it hadn't been made in sudo mode.
Allowing mods to pin comments was a mistake. Was always going to be abused.
When I moderated I only used pinning for its proper use. This shit was annoying.
Basically the only times I've ever been banned from a sub is by asking "why is this comment pinned" lol
What was real bad when they'd wait hours and then just say basically the same thing as what was at the top organically.
No new info, just want the easy karma from the top post
