How does your game fit the theme?
People tend to be the users rather than moderators of servers, so we see the role reversal in a regular user getting the powers of a moderator. Additionally, at the end of the game, it is only the moderators who are banned for breaking the rules.

Fun game I played the entire thing, the ending was sadly not satisfying but as you said you didnt have enough time and it was only 48hrs afterall. (had a lot of fun though)

Great idea and sense of humor. The writing is hilarious and the presentation overall is very polished.  Also the gameplay aspect of detecting rule violations is hectic but fun as well.

The game is super cool. I love the idea and the humor. The type yes for day 2 got me. Great work. Though I would like to comment if days/ comments could go faster, as they are currently quite slow. The game reminds me of paper pleases meets modding.

This game is beaming with creativity and originality!! This game is legitimately very funny which is hard to pull off in a game jam, SOLID writing! Even in the short time you have with the characters it's clear they have separate, individual personalities. The functionality really sells itself as a sleek Discord-like application, and it is fun to interact with. And the playlist was a very smart way to handle having multiple music tracks! By the way the OST was INSANE please play Minisoda at my FUNERAL

Well, this game felt like watching a real server, which is incredibly impressive! The playlist was a neat touch as well. Just so incredibly smooth of an experience overall!

The one criticism I have is that the days were a little bit long, at least in the early game. By halfway through (or earlier) I was solid on the rules that day and craved more challenge. The excellent writing kept it entertaining, but I was ready for more rules.

Arguably this means if anything that you perhaps simulated a server too well, in that it gave me the anxiety I feel when following a real server’s conversations and trying to follow its rules XD

This is really creative, and all the messages ? that's kind of awesome ! Really well done, I also really like the addition of the playlist!

The game seems well-made, but I would maybe add more areas to moderate at once.
