    You are arguing with a mod

    Can you explain what you meant to imply by this? It’s just coming off as a veiled threat that you’ll ban me for arguing with you as I’m reading it.

      I speak plainly. There is no implied threat. I’m simply stating that my experience makes me suited to know when a fact is useful in a discussion.

          I don’t think there’s any way to be taken any other way than beeing an entitled asshat, so let’s start there.

          This is my career. I mean, it was, but newspapers aren’t what they once were. So when a random chance encounter led me to lead U.S. News, I couldn’t really resist.

          Let’s not presume one’s journey.

        What about moderation makes that so more than the average users experience? If anything I would think the biases and repetitive nature would do the opposite.

          Modding is honestly a few more minutes a day than just being a twice-a-day user. That’s how I fell into this!
