This is Yuletide, everybody make a scene

[coalcube]

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!

Re: Your Yuletide sins

I don’t think that‘s actually what any of them are saying. I think they’re saying having at least one person on the mod staff with really good IT skills is an asset, no matter how “easy” the platform you’re working with is, and that a big exchange like YT would definitely need at least one of these people. Both of which are true.

AO3 modding certainly needs less tech skills than older systems, but if they’ve been modding a long time, which I think a couple of the coalies have, they may be more wary of the dangers letting someone without good IT skills near the more complex parts of the exchange or whatever they’re modding, because they might accidentally break it. AO3 has been carefully designed, but there are still ways an inexperienced person could cause issues, or they might be unable to deal with any tech issues that came up.
