Are moderators just purely altruistic? Or do they have an ulterior motive?

    I’m a glass-half-empty person. My views of a situation tend toward the negative so to me, the desire to be a mod stems from the enjoyment of saying “That’s not allowed!”

    I know there are those who want to keep a community safe and assure the policies are enforced but if it means they get to swat someone’s nose and say “No, bad member”, all the better.
