discord moderator syndrome

discord moderator syndrome is defined as a pattern of inappropriate power-signaling and patronizing, demeaning, and condescending behavior of a certain type of people who become discord moderators.
while having zero or next to zero power over other people in real life, gaining even the smallest amount of power may corrupt a person, you can tell if somebody has the discord moderator syndrome when they;
begin to abuse moderator powers (E.G; delete messages, mute/ban people based only on personal mood rather than the written rules). when they become increasingly sensitive about any humor at their expense, and/or act as somebody with hyperinflated sense pf self-importance (EGO). when they demand obedience and/or respect from everybody on the server in a way that is not unlike a god complex. And finally; when they begin to talk to those they perceive to be below them like a king would talk to a peasant.

- what's up with Jerry, he has been acting so inappropriately recently
- oh, Jerry got a moderation role on some discord server and now thinks he is a king, he basically has *discord moderator syndrome*
