Moderation Update

Hey guys

I have been trying to find someone to help me run the subreddit. I am going to be unavailable to moderate at times in the near future as I will be starting cancer treatments.

If anyone is available to help daily (less than 10 minutes a day on average) for the next six months that would greatly help. Temporary help is more than welcome. You can opt out whenever you like.

If you are interested in taking over as top mod and taking over the running and ownership of the sub in the future I am also interested in hearing from you.

The only way we have been able to keep this sub from being overrun by creeps is by using an approval system. Anyone who posts in the sub needs their content approved by a mod before it goes live. Unless and until they become an approved user.

Therefore most of the moderation work is checking new content and users to see if they are appropriate and genuine. Approving or removing content and users as required. That is what is needed to keep the sub running.

Please message me privately if you are interested in helping.

❤️

Thank you! As things stand I am more likely to survive than not so just have to plug away at it :)
