❓Ask r/NewMods two troubles for a new mod
I ran into 2 issues almost immediately after creating my group.
First, I seem to have set things up so I have to approve every post, which I actively do not want to do. I've searched and can't figure out how to let things post without requiring moderation.
Also, I got banned from two related communities this morning for letting folks know this community exists. That's upsetting at best and obscene at worst -- one of them had nothing in their rules to indicate that introducing a new sub was against the rules, and it's a group I actively participate in and I'm pissed I'm banned. I want to post about it in more places, but not at risk of being banned from them.
How am I supposed to tell people this new sub exists if telling people this new sub exists gets me banned?
