View submission: Testing a new concept with select subreddit partners

View parent comment

Recognizing this fact is critical if you want good communication with admins because I've noticed they don't really want to reply to comments from users who are shouting at them in all caps. Do you like getting modmails from users shouting at you? I think you'll find if you change your approach a little bit your thoughts will have a greater chance of being considered and implemented.

I am not shouting.

Context is key.

I'm merely highlighting KEY WORDS and STATEMENTS to call attention to them.

I would hope the Admins reading my initial statement can practice enough critical thinking skills as to understand I am not shouting.

My initial statement is of course harsh criticism. It is justifiably so after years of missteps by Admin. This isn't one simple mistake by Reddit that fails to properly reflect the needs and wants of its user base, most especially the key stakeholders that are us Moderators.

I feel it is productive enough as to give Admins plenty to consider in regards to bettering the experiences and relationships between all of us.

I have also responded to another person with a much more in depth summary of the top three things I would like Admin to be focused on right now instead of these silly gimmicks.

I'm so new I don't feel I could join in the discussion, but maybe a suggestion, try **bold** or *italics* for emphasis, to avoid potential confusion over someone thinking there's a change in tone?
