MODERATORS
 

For example, people on Reddit asking redundant questions and give equally redundant or unhelpful answers.

Whenever every 'What's the worst show you've seen?' is asked, you'll get 10,000 "Kardashians" answers, which is just easy karma farming.

If someone posts in a community that's geared for something like opinions, but someone elects to just go on a full scale rant instead.

I hope the stupid koala/sunfish/panda copypastas burn with reddit. It was kind of funny at first, but then it started actually convincing people that a bunch of species legitimately deserve to go extinct for... taking up an ecological niche?

Reminds me of how people used to laugh about blobfish. Then they realized that the deep sea fish - adapted to incredible pressure - doesn't take rapid decompression well.
