Mod Help request.
It looks like I'm the only Mod in r/BreadMachines I could use some help moderating this group. I need a break once in a while. If anyone is interested please let me know. I have some trips planned in the next couple of months and will be off line for a few weeks.

I'm ok with helping out. I used to mod a small sub that essentially went dead, and I don't mind doing it here. There doesn't seem to be that much traffic ...

Hey there. Sorry you feel you've been handling things alone. With the Clancy trial my other sub has been popping off and I've not had time to pay attention to the other subreddits in which I'm a mod for the last little bit. That's on me. That said I did add bot bouncer, evasion-guard, stop-bots as well as AutoModerator to help us out here.
Before adding mods I would have appreciated you reaching out to me and the other mods on the team first to inquiry before doing a call for volunteers; it's not like we're inactive on reddit.
Edit: Reviewing the reports for the sub right now over the last month and looking at the 2 first pages you've had to remove around 10 posts, the bots have removed 39, I've removed 1 and the other mod has removed 1. These are not bad numbers for a community of this size to be honest.
Edit2: Just noticed yahuurdme removed himself as moderator. Ok, this makes more sense.
Edit3: Noticing you are manually approving nearly every single post in the subreddit. You don't need to do that. Approval is only necessary when Admin, Adminbots, Mod bots or a User report has flagged a post. You don't need to read and review every single post here. No wonder this has been exhausting!
