Out of all of the websites that currently exist, which one would you say has the worst janitors?
I'm going to say, without a shadow of a doubt, Wikipedia and its sister sites. Wikipedo admins are the most power-tripping, petty, vindictive, spiteful, authoritarian fucks on the face of the earth. I've seen countless high-quality articles get deleted just because an admin didn't like the user who originally wrote them. They don't give a fuck about "building an encyclopedia". It's all about power to them, as it's the only power that these pathetic basement-dwelling autists have ever had. Wikipedia admins absolutely live to destroy other people's work. To use one perfect example: Wikipedia actually has an utterly asinine policy (G5) where, if it's discovered that a user is a sock account of a previously banned user, then every single edit and every single article that that user made must be removed, regardless of quality. Wikipedia jannies literally spend hours and hours removing massive amounts of constructive edits and good articles because the people who wrote them were using sock accounts (and this, of course, completely flies in the face of Wikipedia's supposed policy that nobody owns articles). Here, for example, is a case where Wikipedia administrators deleted more than 200 perfectly good articles because the person who created those articles was discovered to be a sockpuppet of a previously banned user. Not even Reddit admins come anywhere close to that level of utterly logic-defying retardation.
IMDb used to have the world's most jaw-droppingly inept jannies until they finally decided to just shut down the message boards altogether (which was, of course, the ultimate cop-out for them). Yahoo! Answers, back in the day, was also notorious for its atrocious moderation team - in fact, it was probably the most difficult website to not get banned from. The mods there would often ban you completely at random and for literally no reason whatsoever.
