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.

discord moderator syndrome*
