    it’s normal to shut up and listen to actual experienced divers if you have something like 21 dives (some people do that many in one week). Being a moderator of a community is sort of the opposite of that

        I mean, I don’t think a mod necessarily needs to be very skilled in something to moderate a community dedicated to that thing.

        But obviously they should be aware that they’re not, and not use their novice numbers as a boast. Which is what the new mod is doing. That just shows they’re arrogant and clueless, two qualities you definitely don’t want in a moderator.

          Assuming their mod duties only involve removing stuff like spam and trolls, I guess. Is that all mods do? Mods seem to always be people who know their stuff, this situation seems so strange in comparison.

        Silly bowler n00b, the maximum score’s 100, 10 frames * 10 pins. Math.

        – some /r/bowling mod wannabe, probably.

        My golf handicap is higher than the average score. I’ve played at 4 different courses and I go the driving range about once every 3 years. I should see if they’ll let me become a moderator of /r/golf.

      one of my last comments over there was along the lines of I don’t think Reddit understands the sheer scale of what they’re trying to change – 8800+ subreddits, 21,000+ volunteer moderators, but only a couple hundred admins (less after the recent layoffs) – each admin is going to be expected to moderate a hundred communities they know nothing about and are now actively hostile …

        They can’t have Reddit employees moderate subs or they lose protection against copyright laws.

          Personally I know reddit is 10x better than lemme. I just come here to gawk and laugh at you lovers. Reddit brained forever.

            As long as you “plan your dive and dive your plan” and allow appropriate surface intervals you can do 3 in a day without much trouble. Modern dive tables and computers are pretty solid. Typically you do your deeper and/or longer dives first and adjust your intervals as needed. Add some decompression stops to every dive for extra safety and you should be totally fine. Doing extended trips of 3 dives a day id be more careful and work in rest days and more conservative plans and be more careful with exhaustion levels. Every persons physiology is different so you can never be sure, but a conservative approach and common sense will keep you safe.
