You can't appeal. You can't complain. You just get muted and cursed at.

To be fair, that IS the fault of reddit the company for not having some kind of mediation panel in place.

The thing is, reddit wants it both ways. They want free labor but they also want to avoid the controversy that comes from the janitor's awful behavior. As soon as you make that panel, free labor just got expensive.

Reddit mods get paid in power trips. It takes a "special" kind of person to want it but that's their wage. When you interfere with the power trips, these "special" individuals don't want to work any more.
