it's come to light that there exists a discord group where mods of various exchanges congregate and mock participants.

Anons talk about bad faith reads, and you're doing it right now because that's not what the server is for.

That's what it's being used for. The stated intention (whatever it was) doesn't really matter at this point.

I have a VPN. Agreed, but I can put "whatever its stated purpose" or something else in there if someone has suggestions.

Maybe:

Because of recent happenings in regards to mod misbehavior in a different exchange, it's come to light that there exists a discord group that is ostensibly for exchange mods to support each other, but in practice is used to mock exchange participants.

Coalie, if you post that, they’re going to instantly delete and block. What are you trying to achieve? Getting your question answered, personally registering your (reasonable) grievance, or something else?

The mods have answered and are going to put out an official statement soon. So I'd say this was a success.

Was this on the admin comm or the other one? I know the admin comm screens anonymous comments. Not sure if the other one does

There's a link one comment up.

No moderator worth their salt is going to do anything other than bin this and ignore it.

No, I'm happy to go on considering it a foolish error to treat this as anything other than overt wank-fishing.
