This is Yuletide, everybody make a scene

I am the sock with the tear-away face
Low-effort with your gift and gone without a trace
I am the "who" when you call, "Who does an exchange without acknowledging their gift?"
I am the wanker blowing through your fics comments
I am the coalie dragging your letter at night
Filling your exchange to the brim with fright!

This is Coaltide!

SC and while nobody needs IT experience to mod, support-related skills are far more relevant to exchange modding than coding is.

DC. Yes, and a lot of those "support-related skills" include IT skills. Being able to fix errors in someone's sign-up or the YT tagset don't involve coding per se, but it requires a level of IT skill that a lot of people evidently don't have, and that includes some mods. You need a mix of skills to run something as big as YT and while not every individual mod team member may have all those skills, you need to have those skills within your team, or you're in big trouble.
