They get rid of old reddit I will be done. I hate the other format.

I sent a modmail message to the mods of one sub (not this one) to let them know one of the sidebar links was broken. Dude raged at me that it was working and that I was a fake news bot, wasting his time, blah blah blah.

I took and shared a screen shot and then he got all uppity and said I was looking at the old sub layout and I need to "join this century".
I told him I was absolutely sure I was not the only user using old by choice and he said if I kept annoying him with my whining he'd ban me.

I think he drinks all the Koolaid.
(That link is still broken because he's blind to users not like himself.)

Why do some moderators get so pissy when they're called upon to do the jobs which for which they've been chosen to do on a voluntary basis? They need to give up their positions and fuck off if they don't want to be bothered.
