Friendly reminder that you are on a forum with essentially one benevolent moderator.

Isn't dang a paid employee? If so, incentives are different. Its a day job that he could get fired from if he deviates from his main duties. (dang you are pretty decent don't get fired please).
The model only works because of the subject matter filtering 99% of potential users. One good moderator can’t possibly scale to a network the size of Reddit.
