Be nice. Assume others have good intent (within reason).

Moderator Guidelines

Moderator Guidelines

Don’t be mean to users. Be gentle or neutral.
Most moderator actions which have a modlog message should include your username.
When in doubt about whether or not a user is problematic, send them a DM.
Don’t waste time debating/arguing with problematic users.
Assume the best, but don’t tolerate sealioning/just asking questions/concern trolling.
Ask another mod to take over cases you struggle with, if you get tired, or when things get personal.
Ask the other mods for advice when things get complicated.
Share everything you do in the mod matrix, both so several mods aren't unknowingly handling the same issues, but also so you can receive feedback on what you intend to do.
Don't rush mod actions. If a case doesn't need to be handled right away, consider taking a short break before getting to it. This is to say, cool down and make room for feedback.
Don’t perform too much moderation in the comments, except if you want a verdict to be public or to ask people to dial a convo down/stop. Single comment warnings are okay.
Send users concise DMs about verdicts about them, such as bans etc, except in cases where it is clear we don’t want them at all, such as obvious transphobes. No need to notify someone they haven’t been banned of course.
Explain to a user why their behavior is problematic and how it is distressing others rather than engage with whatever they are saying. Ask them to avoid this in the future and send them packing if they do not comply.
First warn users, then temp ban them, then finally perma ban them when they break the rules or act inappropriately. Skip steps if necessary.
Use neutral statements like “this statement can be considered transphobic” rather than “you are being transphobic”.
No large decisions or actions without community input (polls or meta posts f.ex.).
Large internal decisions (such as ousting a mod) might require a vote, needing more than 50% of the votes to pass. Also consider asking the community for feedback.
Remember you are a voluntary moderator. You don’t get paid. Take a break when you need one. Perhaps ask another moderator to step in if necessary.

Calling him a cuck because Anisa has an OnlyFans is chud behavior. However, it's a lot more than that. The OnlyFans thing is probably what got the most publicity, but that's really not a big deal if they're both fine with it.

What is a slightly bigger deal, and the main reason people still bring that term out, is the repeated pattern of disrespect that has publicly worn Ian down for years. Events such as:

-Anisa making him miss Max's wedding because she had an appointment to get a tattoo.

-Anisa saying his style is "trailer trash" on a podcast, and of course expanding when given the chance.

-Anisa making fun of his chronic IBS on stream when he was obviously uncomfortable.

-Anisa making him change his last name because "his last name is objectively ugly."

-Anisa making fun of his body before Creator Clash.

-Anisa filming Ian struggling with a respiratory injury and fractured shins before Creator Clash for content, and urging him to fight anyway.

-Anisa talking about how he would have lost Creator Clash in the end anyway after.

-and more!

Normally, I would write all that off as banter between a couple that regularly ribs each other, but iDubbbz clearly looks so uncomfortable during all of these moments where he's onscreen and he does not "joke" back with Anisa either.

Granted, namecalling does nothing to help Ian. He clearly needs a wakeup call for his self-worth. However, classic iDubbbz fans are not known for their eloquence, and Anisa's repeated devaluation of the guy and his life, combined with his seeming willingness to just sit there and take it, have kept the "iCuckz" moniker alive long past the OnlyFans drama.

Just my two cents. I've been thinking about the iDubbbz "downfall" lately. He was super right to pivot audiences and content, he just seems like he might have lost himself a little. I just wonder sometimes about what it would be like if iDubbbz pivoted left but kept that same brutal knack for surgically dismantling someone that's being a piece of shit. That's what I expected from the H3 Content Cop, and that was just regular-ass YouTube drama.
