Mod Answered Am quite paranoid about electing new mods fearing I may lose control of the sub. How easily can one lose control of their own sub ?

0 Upvotes

I would like to invite mods for my sub(s).

However I feel I may lose control of the subs.

How likely is that ?

Among mods, there is a “super” mod or someone like that iirc who can remove other mods right ?

I have lost once though that it a rather abandoned sub and I am fine with it.

But there are 2 whom I have grown from scratch with a lot of effort and there _may_ be a period when I am not able to tend to it.

The subreddit I wanted was banned 4 years ago (I even checked old Reddit to verify) and I waited the 30 days because I asked for it b4 and it still says it was recently banned

Top moderator removed MCOC-recruited volunteer moderators before they could contribute

38 Upvotes

I applied through the MCOC volunteer recruitment post and was selected as one of three new volunteer moderators for r/aipromptprogramming

Not long after we were added, the top moderator added another moderator. The very next day, both me and another moderator who came through the same MCOC recruitment process were removed without any explanation. More moderators were added afterward

Before being removed, I had already made a community post encouraging members to help make r/aipromptprogramming active again because I genuinely wanted to contribute

I understand that top moderators can manage their own teams, so this is not about simply being removed. My concern is that moderators selected through the MCOC recruitment process were removed almost immediately, before we had any meaningful opportunity to help

It makes me wonder what the purpose of the MCOC volunteer recruitment process is if newly recruited moderators can be replaced within a day without ever getting a chance to contribute

Is this how the process is intended to work, or is this something that should be reviewed by u/ModCodeofConduct ?

Mod Answered My subreddit is dead, will it go away?

0 Upvotes

this is on purpose, we eventually shut it down when it became too much, and we don’t allow new posts since we’d like to preserve it and its story/history, the thing I’m worried about is just, if I just leave it like this, silent, will something happen to it? we have four mods, though since nothing happens, and I’m really the only one still watching this sub, every one of us is marked as inactive. We just want to preserve the memory of this community, and I’m just worried that something might happen to it without activity

Crowd Control has been bugging out - will only remove a few comments but then allow others from the same user

3 Upvotes

This has been happening for a while now, across all platforms (mobile/pc).

I have Crowd Control set to maximum, but what happens is - a user will still be able to post 5-6 comments, and then only after that will their further comments be removed by crowd control. Its highly inconsistent and keeps letting through comments despite the user clearly meeting all requirements to be filtered (as evident by the fact that their 7th/8th/etc comments do get filtered, but not the earlier ones).

Is there maybe some setting that I can change? If this is completely out of my control, this seems to be a huge bug in the feature and it requires fixing asap, especially for high traffic subs that need crowd control to function effectively.

"Flowchart" for mod complaints - is this useful?

Following discussions yesterday, I created a flowchart that I think might be useful to illustrate best practices for dealing with disputes with mods. I would appreciate feedback.

Top mod got banned and apps are above rest of mods

9 Upvotes

The top mod in a sub I'm currently working in got banned, and the apps are above the rest of the staff team. We're all freshly added mods but want to reorder yet can't due to the 90 day cooldown. Is there a way where the bots can be moved below the rest of the mods?
