If no one does what you say then no harm done. It's only a problem if people follow your directions when they shouldn't.

Surely if I stick up for rich people on the Internet I'll eventually get a sweet job offer from them, right?

So bureaucracy can run that little bit faster knowing who has authority, rather than all employees questioning everyone?

I don't even know if I understand the question completely. What kind of authority do you want to pretend you have?

Well like going onto a forum and telling someone "You are NOT welcome to post here. Now leave before I am forced to take action," when you can't actually do anything. Then YOU get banned...

I'm guessing because people would abuse it and potentially drive entire subreddits apart? >.>

I mean, a nice mod might just give you a warning anyways. It's not like you can't tell who's a mod or administrator on reddit.

I still don't suggest it if you really like posting there
