Admins can see our PM conversations

Alright, alright... don't get your blood pressure up just yet. My bad. 🙂 And look, you have a point, to some extent. 🙂

But seriously, those two topics have been dragged out and repeated dozens of times now. They've basically become a running joke at this point. 😁

There's always this nagging question hanging in the air:

1. Are the admins snooping through users' private messages? For the record: NO.
2. Do the moderators get paid? Again, NO! (Or do they? 🤣)

Okay, I won't completely dismiss the second one... strictly as a concept for the future... 🤣

But think about it. Why on earth would admins—who clearly struggle to decide if they'd rather manage the site, answer user questions, moderate, super-moderate, live their actual lives, or even just breathe—spend hours reading what Mary and Stephanie are gossiping about regarding their outfits for the next forum meetup? 😁 Sure, reporting an indecent post or an offensive comment from the Prime Minister is a thing. But that only happens when a user voluntarily reports something... it doesn't mean we're digging through everyone's private inboxes.

If anyone tried to give me the option to go rooting through people's business—as in, if such a feature even existed—I’d tell them to go straight to hell. I mean it. Out of all the junk I have to read every single day, the last thing I need is the private chats of strangers that I don't care about (the conversations, not necessarily the people... okay, sometimes both 😁).

So, just chill... nobody is reading your DMs.

Moderating everything without getting a paycheck for it 😲, honestly, you might have been better off helping me till my cabbage patch or actually being useful to someone somewhere.🤣

Look, it’s just ambermason16 and a few other idealists moderating for absolutely nothing.
Man, they clearly didn't read the fine print before signing on.

I mean, who in their right mind would do this without getting paid? 😁

I mean, honestly, what sane person would do this without a paycheck? 😁

🤣

Then again, we all get paid in "exposure"... wait, is this the Prime Minister's thread? No, nope, my mistake... 🙂

Alright, I think we've covered this topic long enough, so we can probably wrap this one up.
