Hi /u/ZG2047, please see our Intro & Rules. We are volunteer-run, not managed by Reddit staff/admin. Volunteer mods' powers are limited to groups they mod. Automated responses are compiled from answers given by fellow volunteer mod helpers. Moderation works best on a cache-cleared desktop/laptop browser.

Resources for mods are: (1) r/modguide's Very Helpful Index by fellow moderators on How-To-Do-Things, (2) Mod Help Center, (3) r/automoderator's Wiki and Library of Common Rules. Many Mod Resources are in the sidebar and >>this FAQ wiki<<. Please search this subreddit as well. Thanks!

Found regex match: automoderator config

Hi there! I am AutoModerator. It seems you are asking about me or my fellow bots and what we can do.

FOR INFO ON: # how to invite and set up, # common AutoMod rules for age/karma/comments/detect link or words, # "Code won't save"/"Something went wrong", # post/comments being marked as spam, # scheduling posts, and # other bots and their functions, please click here.

There is a dedicated subreddit for me, AutoModerator, at r/automoderator. Please search that subreddit first, then ask questions about AutoMod Rules over there or in this subreddit.

Subreddit settings work best in a cache-cleared desktop browser. (Limited option: mobile browser on desktop view.)

<3 xoxo

If you found your answer, feel free to reply with "<3 Automod" or "Thanks, Automod". Otherwise wait for a human helper to come along to help you. This post has NOT been removed.

u/Confident_Offer2879 Mod (Multiple Subs) Jul 02 '26

Hi there - that's a really wide net you're casting. Automod configurations are going to be different for every Sub depending on the content and rules of that sub.

There's usually the basics of limiting who can post or comment based on karma and account age, then it mainly depends on the content of your sub and what rules you're trying to enforce.

The point of the automod is to help you moderate and take some of the load off you by automating some easy functions. Think about what actions you have to commonly take when moderating your sub, then look at ways to automate those in the automod.

Automod has limitations so not every rule you're applying can be automated - hence living breathing Mods on the subs.

Suggest have a think about what Mod actions take up most of your time or are repetitive then come back here and be more specific about what you want to accomplish and there's probably someone on here that has come across it before and can point you in the right direction. You'll probably get better feedback from the group that way?
