He went berserk after this dialog took place in private messages:

Millennial_Falcon: (private message to all mods due to concerns regarding shill activity)

me: (team reply to said private message with findings about suspected shill activity)

numbchuck: Quit pinging me for minor BS

me: That minor BS is called "moderation efforts", which is pretty much your job on here.

numbchuck: Fuck off, pedo

He then proceeded to remove random submissions, including some fairly important ones. @kevdude was fast enough to unmod and ban him before a more substantial damage could have been done.

He had been mostly inactive for about two weeks now, possibly being a ticking time-bomb.

Lessons learned:

  • Report suspicious mod behavior after the first questionable action. – This would be his first private message to me, my bad, guys.
  • Remove inactive mods from the mod team.

You guys rock. Glad to see the immediate action taken as well as transparency behind the scenes!
