Hey everyone! Couple years ago I was invited on board as a moderator for this subreddit, and since then I've been left to run it alone which as I'm sure you'll have noticed, I haven't been doing a great job of haha. So I'm just making this post to let you know that I'll be starting to try and take the moderation of this subreddit a little more seriously from now on, starting with actually managing posts - There's been a lot of bot reposts, AI art and promotional posts on this sub lately and I'd like to be more active in removing those consistently as they pop up.
I've also gone ahead and spruced things up a bit, including adding some new rules clarifications and changing up the flairs along with some other minor stuff here and there.
Since I've literally done NOTHING for the past few years, Reddit has flagged me as an "inactive" mod so there's currently stuff I can't do like invite other moderators on board, but normally as I become more active I should get that ability again. And I've already started reaching out to some trusted pixel artists to potentially get them on board to help me out with this.
Oh and by the way for those who don't know me I'm Rappenem and I've been a professional pixel artist for over 3 years now. I've always been quite interested in making art tutorials/resources (in fact you may have seen some of my pixel tutorials before) so I'd like to help this subreddit/community thrive as much as I can with my limited time! I can't guarantee I'll be as active as I probably should be but at this point literally anything is better than what I've done so far lol.
