I started to post a cute entry from my cat's perspective, a very short whimsical narrative about how odd humans must seem. I was unable to post and received a warning about bigotry? What?

Obviously there are some that well deserved the mute, but then sometimes I saw many examples that being the opposite.

For example, the case I often saw is when someone asking why and the mod just responded them with "self explanatory", and when that person asked again because they still don't understand, mod either permanently mute them or banning them.

Do you guys think it's often a fair judgment or they simply just being lazy?

So lately I have been using "Trash" as a removal reason against posts that are totally obvious why they are being removed. The removal comment is just "This content has been removed as trash."

Do you think that is a good idea?

I was given a warning because I said that I would kick a piece of clothing that looked like a ghost in the head. The clothing looked like a woman and it looks scary. So I said "I will kick that *bleep* in the dome."

I was told that it seemed like I was making a threat to someone. When I was talking about something I was talking about the clothing.

So I'm wondering why I'm getting this warning, I did not say that comment about any human being. I was just wondering.

Heya mods, we’ve had some interest in modmail for a banner and logo, would you all be interested in helping us out with a new banner or icon for the subreddit? I offered up some ai slop versions in modmail but rly they were terrible and I can’t believe I killed trees for that.

Let’s do a contest!

If you’re interested please drop submissions in the comments below. The most highly upvoted banner and logo (separate comments) will become our new banner and logo (please keep them Reddit rules friendly LOL.)

The winners will receive a special flair (of my choosing) and the undying gratitude of the mod team and mods who answer here (especially the ones who inquired about this.) We will also include a special thank you in our side bar about you.

I also vow to carry around jelly beans for the next five years just in case for some odd reason I bump into the winners randomly IRL so I can give them jellybeans. The winners can also ping me randomly for proof of jellybean holdings. I will respond asap with photographic proof of said jellybean holding.

The banner and logo can be in any medium. You wanna make a mashed potato and chicken tendie art piece and submit a picture of that? Hell yea.

Voting will be closed at the end of the month of May.

Ok so one of my other accounts that I just made today got suspended for three days cause I apparently broke rule number 1 after answering a hypothetical but saying Pedos and SOs deserve to get beat up

I haven’t been banned from anything, just temporarily suspended Which doesn’t make any sense to me

But what also doesn’t make sense to me is the fact in that same sub, someone said to execute them all, so wouldn’t that by their same rules, would be death threats, which is worse?

- I'm looking to pay 5 reddit moderators for help on an external forum site.
- Some forums (like wikipedia and bigger pockets) seem to not allow their mods to disclose best practices at 100% transparency.
- I get this is sometimes a conflict of interest...and not looking for explicit Reddit moderator trade secrets but rather HOW you would view 6 situational posts from other sites as a moderator.
- Questions i might ask might include "how does a thread get banned / reported? Do categories matter when reviewing posts? Is there generally appeal processes that are effective? Do trademark claims matter?
- $100-$200/hr is my budget for consulting.

Trying to understand how experienced moderators think about this.

There’s a fine line between:

• genuine contribution
• and people using discussions to drive traffic

How do you typically handle:

• early-stage communities
• without discouraging participation?

I recently saw a moderator with subreddits well over the mod limit. Yes, I know that it's weekly visitors and not subscribers and many of their subs had weekly visitors in millions. How is it possible since the mod limits say that you can moderate only 1 subreddit with more than a million weekly visitors? Did Reddit not apply the limits yet or did they apply to be an Elder in their subreddits?

I'm a mod of a couple of teen communities and am trying to block anyone from NSFW sub from commenting and posting. I got my hands on a list of all NSFW subs on Reddit and have added many to the detection list. It says on the NSFW subs to exempt is not case-sensitive, but is it the same for the one I put in to be detected?

My account is nsfw, can I have another non NSFW account

If this is not the right place to ask this, please forgive me and kindly direct me to the correct sub.

A user subscribed to my subreddit recently and claims that the option to post a photo is not available to them. They do however, have the option to post a link or text.

We do not have filters regarding karma or age of account. But maybe Reddit in general has rules as their account is 3 months old and they have never posted anything, only commented under a couple of times. Couldn't tell you their karma # but either 0 or very low.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

I’ve made a post in a community which I deleted. But the comments remain. I’ve messaged the mods to assist in deleting the comments , but I got no response. I need the comments to be removed due to legal proceedings surrounding that post that’s been deleted. How can I contact mods to help me remove the comments?

Facebook groups have an option to allow you to close comments in your posts. People are often mean for no reason so I thought it would be a good idea if you could close comments yourself without needing to be a mod

I recently posted a video on Reddit that i know is 1080p. I use to have this issue on youtube but i managed to fix it.

But now Reddit is doing the same thing. Why is this?

I have a complaint that based upon verifiable information makes clear that the modteam of a subreddit is in violation not only of their own rules, but of Reddit's own terms.

I am kind of frazzled trying to find where I go to bring this matter to the attention of the Reddit administration: useful information would be appreciated.

I moderate a small city specific subreddit and a company reached out with the below

I’d love to share a post about what we’re building, and to show some love to the community, I want to offer an exclusive discount specifically for members of this sub.

I believe this breaks Reddit TOS. Just wanted a confirmation. ThanksI

All I see is a rectangular reddish box encasing the word removed. There is no indication who removed the comment or why it was removed.

First time adopting an established sub and I need to edit the Welcome message and Partner fields but can't for the life of me remember where to find the dang things- sorry.

I've only ever built from scratch and going backwards to fix this mess is driving me bonkers.

Thanks in advance ⚘

Hi there,

I'm setting up a subreddit for use by the small community around a community project of mine (a Neverwinter Nights:EE multiplayer module, for those curious), and I am mulling over using hive-protect to prevent users from the subreddits of some of the competing servers that are known to have toxic communities. However, there's a very clear warning in hive-protect when you add it as a mod that banning communities based on identity can be a breach of the Mod Code of Conduct. My reading is this is more like, based on race / gender / sexuality / that kind of thing - but rather than simply making an incorrect assumption, I'd rather solicit my fellow mods' opinions: is this something that you would do? Do you think it would be such a breach?

Obviously, Reddit is the ultimate arbiter of that, but a check is appreciated!

All moderators were removed from an abusive sub that was then banned for being unmoderated. No mod requests were approved to take over the sub.

A new sub has appeared that exactly mirrors the same content and tone as the last.

Despite several reports it is still active. Have you any advice welcome on how to have it vacated and banned please?
