I don't know if using metaphors where the logical extension of mods being landed gentry is your product being a feudal kingdom, you the king, and the users the peasants is necessarily all that clever of a quote to start spreading around.

Agreed. The only problem is that I think most people will stop at landed gentry and say, "BAD!" without thinking through the full context like you just did.

Thats exactly what I expect out of a large swath of redditors. All this just to avoid the work of making the official app not suck.
