View submission: [Recap] The great xkcd mod-sidebar blowup
but due to reddit's lax policies on firing moderators
1. it's not a job
2. it's the community's responsibility
3. CAN YOU IMAGINE the butter soaked bottom of the popcorn barrel if admins actively administered community controls? I'm not talking fending off legal action by shutting down off pedophile subs or political bans of a handful of users, I mean the Parents actively stepping down and refereeing the kids at play.

Except the community can't get rid of mods. Only mods can, which is exactly the problem in the case of /r/xkcd.
