This is an announcement, to notify you that I will stop actively moderating within the next few weeks, which will affect , t/mildlyboobs as well as . I've stopped enjoying moderating a while ago and it really feels like a chore now without the fun part. Since I don't want to completely leave without a notice, the comments will have a few options how to proceed until someone new has been found.
If you want to try being a moderator here, here is how you may get a chance:
-
Send a modmail with a text why you think you will be a good mod here
-
You need to have used Reddit for a while, but you can use a fresh account to moderate. (Moderating experience is not needed but you should know reddit a bit)
-
You need to be able to not escalate when someone verbally insults you after they didn't agree with you. (Can be reported to the admins so you don't need to accept it)
-
You need to be able to communicate with others in English. We don't care about typos but there must be a way of communication
-
If you have skills in working with people/ customers, that's great
-
Currently neither the repostsleuthbot nor the repostmasterbot are working properly in this sub, the only working bot is the automoderator (I can help with that in the future)
-
I'm pretty sure it's time to remake the rules/ Wiki
-
It would be great if not everyone that violates rules gets banned because you take the easy way. There are ways to put them on “probation” ^(only permabans are for real genitalia, extreme harassment and other really bad things and we haven't used temporary bans in a while)
I've been a Moderator here for multiple years after the previous mods abandoned their duty. I introduced a lot of change during that time and got kicked out by the inactive mods a few times. I've spend countless hours here, partially had weekends where I invested a lot of time in the subreddit. It felt like another great hobby until it started to just be a unpaid job that had to be done because nobody else would do it.
Since this will decide about the future of the 3 subs, please take the time to think what you want for the subreddits and then discuss it in the comments.
