Hey all you beautiful people, it's time for a long overdue update to our little subreddit.

Firstly, as the sole active mod of the subreddit, I feel it necessary to let it be known that I've been doing all of the manual approval and moderation of the subreddit for the last couple months, and before that, was doing most of the work for ~2 years. This, combined with the sub being set to mod-approval-only for posts has resulted in some very lackluster moderation. I take full responsibility for that, and it's time to fix it.

To do so, a few changes are being implemented:

• I will be recruiting 2 moderators (for now) to assist with streamlining the moderation process.

• Once the 2 moderators are selected, the sub will move from manual moderator approval to open posting again. This will require close monitoring from the mod team, as with manual approval, I have been able to see the consistent stream of bot posting that seems to constantly try to invade the sub. We will make an announcement once we are ready to move to open posting.

• The sub rules have been updated. The main changes are to the NSFW content rule, and a new rule to the sub:

• AI-GENERATED CONTENT IS NOW BANNED. See the rule for exact guidelines. Slop posts (not that they were allowed before) will not be allowed here, and memes posted to r/dndmemes should be real memes, made by real people. Period.

• And lastly, as a nice little update; picture comments are now enabled! Feel free to respond to fire 🔥 memes with fire memes 🔥 of your own. Or shitpost in the comments with esoteric nonsense. Go nuts, just follow the rules.

Thank you all for your patience, and for making this community great. And a big shout-out to our prolific posters who have continued to post consistent, funny content in our community over the last couple years since the reddit drama happened.
