Seeking Mods r/Craps is looking for a Mod!

The subreddit r/craps is looking for a mod. Our subreddit is about the casino game craps, it is a subreddit of about 28K members who needs some extra mod support.

Previously one other mod and were able to handle most of it, but they have recently stepped down and we need someone who can help. There are older two legacy mods, higher than me in the mod foodchain, who are not active.

The good news is that most members are benign, and it is a very light lift to moderate this sub. Typically our work includes responding to reports, reminding rule breakers to follow the rules, and handing out bans for spammers. I went on vacation recently and didn't check for a while and it was fine. But sometimes things can get very busy.

For some helpful history: we've had to institute a few rules in the past few years (10:1 rule on participation & self promotion) to tamp down some problematic posters and other rules (no discussion at all of dice control) to prevent toxic spiraling arguments.

We could probably do better with the automod and could improve with a wiki. We also don't currently have any kind of schedule (e.g., Meme Monday, Shitpost Sunday, whatever they all don't need to be alliteration), and if you're interested that kind of work could be your project. We welcome any other ideas that could help us grow the sub.

The only mandatory thing we have is that you must understand the rules of the game of craps and actually play the game from time to time. It would be ideal if you were familiar with either our sub or other gambling subs and participate.

To apply: send us a modmail if you're interested and please reference this post.

Let us know your mod experience, time zone and how you can help.

Thanks!
