How can someone be a "moderator" with worse reputation than a bad troll?

Ectar:   A players reputation normally is never at a minus level before they are selected to become moderators. Moderators have and always will be a target for players who disagree with being sanctioned. It goes pretty much like this:   "Oh you banned me?  Well take this!" *looks for some of the mods past posts and downvotes them* "Yeeeeeahhh! That'll teach you to ban me!    Sometimes followed with:   "Hey guiz! This moderator banned me, lets show him how mad we are by downvoting him/her together!"   As Dongfeng_division stated they in effect "take one for the team" - As the moderator's main role is moderating, they're most common interaction with players is when enforcing our policies which is seen by many as negative interaction.   There is also a few players who just downvote any WG account for random reasons or out of spite.  That I'll never understand because if they're trying to get a point across it's completely lost.   I'm now going to close this thread because: A - You knew it was coming. B - It's a thread that will bring out the worst in some players.  C - Your question has been answered.    - Ectar
