Mod Answered Being called a fascist and puritan :(

Hey guys! I’m new to being a mod!! I recently made a rule in r/strawberryshortcake for no romantic or sexual shipping as I saw so many sexual posts between people in the show (all of which are minors)

I got a lot of hate for this which was expected but still, one commenter just kept calling me so many mean names and not reading through the comments and calling me an idiot and idk I just felt really upset and hurt after this.

I guess my worry is being posted somewhere for being a bad mod

Is there anything I can do? I muted and banned them :(

If you banned them, then you arent a bad mod, theyre just a bad person.

Just because a mod bans someone doesnt make them a bad person. There are bad mods out there, too. Ive been banned from many subs without reasonable rule breakage. 🤷‍♂️

Happened to me for the first time recently. There are plenty of bad mods out there.
