There aren’t. Subs were constantly understaffed of mods. While the power tripping mod is common enough to justify that the stereotype exists, most subs had to practically beg to people to get mods. Supermods were tolerated though they were more a nuisance than useful. Because often times they were the only ones open and willing to take the role.
There are power hungry mods, but to think that the population is all so power hungry that there are lines of people waiting to be mods is false. It’s a thankless stressful position. It fucks with people’s mental health and eats your time.

This was my experience on subs I spent time on. They would often have to recruit more mods, the people who care get burnt out.
