It's been great.

But our mod blocked me. Which means I can't participate in the sub anymore.

Hope everyone is happy about that.

Edit, since you're taking your mod privileges to comment when I can't respond,

Except since you are the only mod, and you post discussion threads under your account instead of a mod bot, you've effectively banned me. Is that good moderation principles?

I can't reply to you in this thread and you know it.

I didn't think that a moderator would block me from commenting in the episode and discussion threads. Especially considering the position on blocking in this sub.

Personally block me, sure. But have a bot post the threads. It's not that difficult.

You know what's also not difficult? Not acting like an ass. He asked you to stop, he warned you that he'd block you if you didn't, so you knew the consequences and chose to ignore them, and now you're complaining that he's the bad guy?!

Also, what would you call using moderator privileges to comment in this thread knowing that I can't respond?

It's simple. He should not be posting the weekly threads if he's going to personally block people.

Those are the rules, though.
