Different mod team, but it was also on reddit which means it was impossible to insulate it from bigotry. Here, people think that’s possible and are currently going to great lengths to do so. One way or another the guiding philosophy is clearly different, for better or worse.
It's entirely down to the mod team. The mod team here was first filtered through whoever was online enough to get to the Discord in the day that we knew the sub would be banned, then stayed in the Discord for a month and became a mod there, then who managed to stay through the extreme immaturity and pettishness of Discord drama, then became mods here, wanting to police this community of like 200 posters.
Bad decision making led to a toxic moderation team from the core-out, and with every one who leaves it continues to filter for the purely worst options. Then that trickles down to how the site behaves and is shaped.
My understanding is that the others were burnt out, and Beatnik was one of the less experienced mods. I think that we've done a good job of moving past them, but obviously there's been a ton of shishows along the way, and I expect there to be more.
Beatnik never really was a CTH mod, he modded there for like a month or so before it was banned iirc
He's good but gives in to pressure from the rest of this terminal mod array so much that it ends up dissolving the userbase of this site because why the fuck would anyone want to wade through this
Ya not meant to trash on our comrade by any means. None of us particularly want the job, and as much as people have criticisms of the mods, I don't really see anyone call for them to step down (that would be over the top). I think users will come and go, I know I've had times where I've almost left (either the old sub or here), but it ended up being a long and healthy break from poisoning my brain with this sort of shit.
Not to say that I want to see users like Cass or some of the folks who left while we were transitioning from the Discord leave permanently, they were/are great comrades and I hope to post again with them.
The subreddit wasn’t nearly as hair triggered with bans and stuff.
Well about that, if the subreddit didn't needed bans to keep idiots out, why .chat doesn't have the same "resilience" to dickheads?

"Sir, would you mind if I suck your dick while my GF pegs you?"
Different mod team I guess.
