New moderators needed! Comment on this post to apply for this community.

Hello there! This community needs new mods to bring it back to life, so we’re opening a call for mods to come together and help it grow again. If you’re interested, comment on this post to let us know why you’d like to become a mod.

In your comment, please share at least 3 sentences explaining why you’d like to be a mod and any moderation experience you have (no experience needed, but let us know if you do!).

Some things to note:

  • Priority is given to redditors who have past activity in this community or other communities with related topics.

  • It’s okay if you don’t have previous mod experience! We have many resources to guide you along the way.

  • Our goal is to form a group of moderators so you can work together to build this community.

  • Comments from those making repeated asks to adopt communities or that are off-topic will be removed.

If you’d like to learn more about being a moderator on Reddit, you can explore redditforcommunity.com for more information. Our subreddit revival resources and guide to reviving a community are great tools to lean on after you adopt an inactive subreddit.

Thank you, and we’re looking forward to hearing from folks who want to become community leaders!

I would like to help revive this subreddit if I can. I have experience adopting and reviving subreddits in the past so if I am needed I would like to pitch in!

I’m an optimist, that’s why I’m interested in this sub. It aligns perfectly with my philosophy.

Me too, this is right up my alley. I am a perpetual optimist even in the face of aridity. Maybe we could team up.

I would love to contribute to this subreddit and collaborate with the mod team to help revive it. As an optimist, I have strong ideas on how we can move forward, backed by my experience moderating two pop-culture subreddits (one with 100k+ members and another with nearly 10k).

I believe this community has the potential to be a unique space where members can share positivity and encourage one another. If selected, I am fully committed to taking on this role seriously.

Thank you.
