UTDAnt Subreddit Moderator

Hi all,

I have been busy with real life stuff (interviews, COVID, projects, graduating this Fall, etc). Haven't been really able to do much on this subreddit as a moderator. Really burnt out. Exhausted of people telling others who I am IRL (I just want to be anonymous).

​

I have been seeing a lot of people just throwing hate at me for posts being removed and for the subreddit being "sad and boring." Also have a professor harassing me and threatened to get this subreddit shutdown because a student made a bad review of them.

​

Yea... there are a lot of posts about students asking about a class/professor lately on this subreddit. I mean, it is expected since class registration is up. Every year this happens. We created a megathread for it but some students just don't read and rather flood the subreddit with redundant posts. When their posts get removed, they just blame me because they see my name often than other mods, which I understand. Someone even made a username with my username and called me retard because their post got removed by a moderator/automod. ¯\_( ツ )_/¯

​

When joining the subreddit's moderating team, my goal was to organize the subreddit, help students find information, showcase organization/clubs, and showcase some UTD Memes. The only posts I mainly remove are the courses/professor posts and harmful posts.

​

Since this year started, there weren't really much of memes from campus. We really relied on everything from online. The only memes I could remember for this semester is the "Congratulating Amy" posts, speed-run for surveys, and the Health Check survey girl.

I apologize for not being the moderator you guys need. I will disappear soon as planned.

​

Thanks,

UTDAnt
