I don't think it's really fair to say that unpaid volunteers have *any* specific responsibility.

I do think it's really unfair that moderators are universally unpaid volunteers, especially for the core of reddit - the subreddits that have hundreds of thousands of subscribers.

But you shouldn't volunteer if you don't have the time to do it correctly. Plenty of people do have the time and energy to do it. By volunteering to moderate, *you are taking on that responsibility*.
