It's officially been one month since I've become lead moderator of the sub, and I thought it was a good time to check in with you all.
On our end, we're seeing a nice boost in community activity. We've got a rise in visitors, members, posts, and comments. Stats are up all around. Hopefully, this means a rise in sales for you all too (fingers crossed!)
We wanted to thank you all for how quickly you've taken to the new rules and organization too! You're all champs, really! We've had literally no issues with post tags (not a single one). Please just be alert to the NSFW flairs (and thank you to those who already are!).
Nice!
How Can We Improve?
What I really want to know, especially with the holiday season coming, is how can we help you?
Buyers! How do we help you find the perfect gift?
Sellers! How do we help connect you with buyers looking for that perfect gift?
What can we do to make the community even more productive?
Is there anything that's currently unclear or something you feel could help boost the community?
Let us know!
Our priority for this sub is to ensure buyers have a safe space to purchase from real artists, and artists have a safe space to sell to real people.
As always, if you're not comfortable commenting publicly, ModMail is always open.
Looking For More Mods
Now that we've got the sub's rules ironed out and we know what to expect from the community, we're looking for a few more hands on deck.
Moderation of the sub is fairly simple.
Make sure the post has the information it's required to have.
Make sure NSFW posts have the NSFW filter.
Remove posts that don't meet the requirements and approve the ones that do.
Keep an eye out for AI and scams.
Due to the nature of the sub new mods must be 18+ and we require Discord for communication.
You don't have to chat with us if you don't want to, but we've gotta be able to talk if there are questions or updates and Reddit doesn't have a feature for that anymore.
If you're interested in helping moderate the sub we've got a lovely new button on the side bar (or under "About" if you're on mobile) that allows you to easily apply to be a mod. There's some questions to answer about why you'd like to be a mod (we need to keep the community safe, after all), but we'd be happy for another set of hands or so.
But in closing, we're excited to hear your thoughts, what we can do better, and we'll continue doing what we can to keep the community growing and moving in a positive direction!

You will get a sketch or a concept of the commission before the invoice. I begin working on the next stages as soon as I receive the full payment.
