Next mod needs to enforce an arbitrary, despotic reign of terror

Everyone who's tried to listen to the community just burns out or melts down.

it seems really obvious from the outside that this is a problem from above, not from below; adtrw can't be sustainably moderated without an admin team willing to stand behind whoever does the job. has little to do with the community one way or another. as tom scocca said about gawker, the sins and the doom were unconnected

They've been ignoring it until it blows up into a qcs thread. The first admin action I saw related to the most recent vtuber thread was sebmojo changing that ban reason.

It’s pretty clear that the admin team will just leave anyone who mods ADTRW out to dry and let them be the whipping boy of whatever gently caress feels like loving around.

My plan if I was forcibly given mod was to immediately autoban but apparently mods are immune to it so I will simply go down in a blaze of glory probating all my posting enemies. You know who you are.

shake things up a bit, randomly select some regular from one of the really niche subforums who's never posted in ADTRW. get one of the BFC regulars, it'd be funny to watch some accountant have to deal with the vtuber thread

Since Coupons & Deals is the source of all the issues on the entire forum, pick one of them as the new mod.

Speaking of accountants, a streamer I was watching brought up the idea of an anime or manga about an accountant, just doing their job.
Like, that's the entire story.

And I genuinely wanna read that manga.

Does Zorak not like idol anime? I heard that he had a massive hate boner for moe shows like K-On?

Zorak's position was that irl idol agencies are run by the yakuza and/or paedophiles, and thus idol anime glamorising it is bad.
