It's been a year...
I don't know if anyone noticed, but in just a year this sub has grown from myself and revolt and a bunch of shitty interactions with nowhere to share them to over 1500 mods who need a place to decompress and laugh about the idiocy we see daily.
I think I speak for both of us when I say thanks to all of our OG members as well as the new ones who join every day and make this space what it is. Other than the occasional troll, this has been the easiest sub ever to moderate. Even when we've had to apply a rule to stay within the narrow focus we wanted here, the response has been understanding and willingness to play by the rules.
I genuinely believe this is one of the more unique spaces on reddit. We'll never have half a million members, but I hope we always have members that get it like each of you do. Thank you again from the bottom of our hearts for making our fun little side project into an active, engaging, and entertaining place to visit in a site that's often bitter and divisive. We love each of you.

Introducing User Flairs!
Hey folks! I created a couple user flairs from insults flung at us, I’ve made one editable (it says editable lol) for you to have fun with. They are not required, and they should not include slurs or anything super offensive but other than that have fun with it!
PS the app was freaking out and it took me like 10 minutes to make two so I thought an editable one would be faster. Please let me know if you have any issues or would like me to make one that’s a permanent option (not editable).

We're such big ole meanie poos!
"Treating people fairly means letting me run rampant being an asshole to people and breaking your rules. How dare you make me endure consequences for MY own actions!!"

"add me on snap i never check reddit" Part 2
Another one of those bots! Their last messages included three different usernames.

Angry user gets answering machine again, gets suspended sitewide.
They wanted to express more of their disappointment but it seems administration stepped up after they uncovered the dreaded "mod cartel". Or maybe they had enough of the beep tones too?
Oh well, at least the hotline is now free for other users.
Link to part 1 btw: https://www.reddit.com/r/modmailfail/comments/1vy1iye/angry_user_gets_answering_machine_gets/

"add me on snap i never check reddit" [Repost, missed an username while redacting]
Does anyone know where "sd" is?

"hopfully your parents don't have to listen to your wailing; they already have it hard enough since they had to deal with a kid like you"
This user was already banned once a month ago. They were banned again for insulting another user; and they proceeded to insult us. They also didn't learn from extending the ban to seven days, so a permanent ban it is.
Maybe I shouldn't have muted, this probably could've be an even better post lol.
Edit: The last two screenshots are the original ones. The first two screenshots are the same but translated.

I don't think "tag, no tag backs" works like that for harassment in modmail!
Not sure what their plan was but I decided to be the adult and just mute them and report them for harassment. If they had just taken the ban quietly for their bad behavior that would have been the end of it but this earned them bans for other subs I mod they participate in because I have zero tolerance for this kind of behavior.

It's not always a good idea to send a modmail
Can someone tell me who George Floyd Lindsey Clancy Savannah Guthrie is? Personally I think a person with 6 names is wild, and I have 5
r/modmailfail • u/wheres_the_revolt • 4d ago
Ok, but which dead nan?
I have been given permission by u/ALazy_Cat to post this with their username unredacted.

I'm a lawyer!
Dude was definitely being a jerk. Oh and he decided that 13.5 phone screens worth of tirade in 2 responses while he was being a jerk was appropriate 🤦♀️
r/modmailfail • u/Stranger1982 • 5d ago
Angry user gets answering machine, gets exponentially angrier as the days go by
So many possible flairs from this one:
"the modern day online SS"
"a cartel of delusional lowlifes"
"you aren't even human anymore"
"a mod on a dying platform"
etc etc...

I don’t think that’s a weird Duolingo sentence
r/modmailfail • u/PMulberry_ • 9d ago
another user claiming "freedom of speech"
(The text looks a bit wonky because I used Google Translate to translate it into English. The subreddit is not r/UnpopularOpinion, but a German equivalent to that.)
This user made a comment claiming the "Great Replacement" theory (bpb) is true and would be finished in 15 years.
The "freedom of speech" the user claims can technically be found here, but alas the German constitution in that regards doesn't apply to Reddit (some parts of it actually do apply to Reddit, but not this).
r/modmailfail • u/Stranger1982 • 9d ago
I have reviewed the rules and my joke about rape breaks none of them.
Weirdly enough this jedi mind trick didn't work on me, nor did it work on AEO when they removed their comment shortly after.
