[Riff-Raff] Countdown to RandomMan deactivating megathread

When the presence of one cancer cell is considered more important than the wishes of the entire mod team, this is no longer a team I wish to be a part off. If this issue is not resolved in a week, I am deactivating. That is an ultimatum I am presenting over Don’s absolute shit decision making. Don utterly destroyed any hope for improvement I had left. That last part is shared by a lot of mods right now.

RM has been an important part of the website for several years now and (unless someone else beat the record, maybe PM) the quickest user to ever be promoted to mod ranking. His hard work and dedication has been invaluable to the meme database and the site as a whole.

Unfortunately he will be BTFO seven days from now when the administration decide to keep doing their jobs and not pay attention to a small group of volunteers who don't understand what their place is in the memesite hierarchy.

Random, in the mod team, there’s a stigma against you. It’s as simple as that.
I’m not joking -- these admins may tell you what to do to solve it, but it won’t help. You’ve done some negative or annoying things in the past. A lot of negative and annoying things. And to some, that image of you will stay for a very long time, even if you improve yourself.
It sucks. I know. But that’s just the way it is. I suggest getting a clean start -- deactivating and trying again, or just not posting for a while and come back to a fresh set of admins. Maybe you think that the staff is toxic, or just full of assholes, and you’d be right. All internet companies are. There will almost always be a mob mentality to any online community you visit.
Sorry you’ve met this fate. You’re not dead in the water, but your options now are limited. Good luck.

'Tis a shame that RM is deactivating. He's done quite a great job here. Now, the question, once he deactivates (that is if he is seriously considering it.), who will take his place?

IT'S ME, RANDOMMAN! IT WAS ME ALL ALONG!

I was the one who got the admins to stop communicating with the mods and force RM to deactivate, and I did it all just so I could take his mod powers from his cold, deactivated hands! And you all bought it! You all bought it hook, line, and sinker! Even Don bought it!

Clearly, this was a ruse to obtain RM's media powers for myself.

But in all seriousness, I have no interest in obtaining media powers as I got other business outside of here to take care. Plus, I wouldn't be much help at all.

I was just curious on who will replace RM himself. Will it just an existing mod that will take his place or will it just be another hand picked mod that will take over?

After a long deliberation, the admins have decided to make Epyc Wyn the new head mod. Taryn was a close second.

Autocomplete and sleep deprivation as a result of insomnia are not a good mix.

I just woke up, do the mods legit think they're more important to the site than the admins now? That's hilarious.

it's actually about ethics in memesite moderation

Lets be real here, mods are being whiny lil bitches. Admins shouldn't bend the rules for Epyc, but you dont have to be a little pussy and leave because of an admins decision.
