As a moderator of a subreddit with more subscribers than this one, the total compromisation of this sub's moderators (in terms of the NDA Riot had them sign, among other actions they've taken) really, really confuses me. And makes me sad.
First of all, how is the "insider info" that Riot gives the mods in exchange for the NDA (and whatever else it entails), not against reddit TOS? They're being materially rewarded for compromising the subreddit's integrity. Yes, Riot makes League. But that doesn't matter. FX doesn't control the r/ArcherFX subreddit. A few animators pop on and say stuff, but they aren't running the show, and as far as I know there's no NDA with FX for the mods to sign. Making a thing that a subreddit revolves around doesn't give ownership of that subreddit to that maker. I love r/CHIBears. But the McCaskey's don't own it, and we can say whatever we want about the organization on the subreddit. We are fans, not serfs.
The only reason this community is anything is because, like every community on reddit, the users and subscribers to this community produce content, interact with it, upvote/downvote it, and have through repetition of that pattern created this community. As a moderator, one is tasked with keeping a community relatively navigable, and trying to make a pleasant experience. One is not tasked with hoarding power, taking kickbacks from a company, and compromising the experience that is only relevant because of hundreds of thousands of other people who are receiving no reward for their participation. That's not what moderating is about.
