because they often spend a ridiculous amount of time working on custom CSS, and custom graphics, writing excessively long posts and comments, and making and decorating dozens of random subs

/u/magnora7 literally writes what's going on but can't accept the fact that people get upset when they spend a lot of time trying to contribute to the site (in my case, future-proof it against legal and administrator abuse by posing principal questions) and they're shat on.

I am glad when people help out. I am not glad when people pretend to help so that they can later undermine it more deeply. There's quite a difference. I am only speaking of the latter.

It's a good thing you can read my mind so you know my actual motives beyond the ones I present myself.

Which is why I give everyone the benefit of the doubt until they break the rules. No mind reading required.

Without specifics and examples I can only kind of agree.

In my case, I was trying to help improve and organize and classify subs - for better reference and research and search results. My ideas for democratic sub developments were ignored.

I was also trying to improve the aesthetics and practicality with my evolving Ergonomix CSS, applied to several subs, which I needed mod access to update - but I was called a sub hoarder (true-ish) and power mod (categorically false).

Talking to [deleted] in any substantial way seems moot and a waste of time. I don't even talk to myself.

100+ subs only for the admins, not for you.

I'm sorry that you need to know who's saying something before you evaluate the content.

To the wind and no one in particular:

I never had close to 100 subs, nor want them. Nor do I see that as a problem if they're not abused. Who's to say there's a limit until the admin decides and announces there's one. Explosively in this case. Now there's a limit of 40.

I had 40 and didn't even want most of them, but I wanted the topics to exist to post under to help organize SaidIt. I also wanted to be able to update the CSS and banners. Unfortunately chaos reigns and SaidIt is no more organized than the barnyard animals on Reddit.

I tried to be the change I wanted to see in the world and lead by example. I was free to help in the manner that I could until I wasn't.
