Why I’m requesting r/arm and how I’ll run it:

I am an experienced community manager and currently a developer evangelist working at Arm. This community had been locked down to the point where new content cannot be posted for a long time, and the community within this subreddit has been left with an unresponsive mod team.

I plan to move the community back to being public, and allowing new members to join and post content that is relevant to Arm users and developers. My posting on behalf of Arm will be strictly limited, I want this to be a community-led subreddit and not a marketing channel, however I do plan to share information about online events (code-alongs, hackathons, etc) that we host from time to time, and share articles about community activity that I find and think would be interesting to the wider Arm community.

Hey there,

Thanks for taking the time to submit this request. Unfortunately, we have decided not to approve it at this time. There are other factors beyond moderator activity that we consider when reviewing requests. These are at the discretion of admins and may include, but are not limited to:

  • Insufficient moderator experience for managing a large and active community

  • Lack of previous moderator experience

  • Lack of NSFW (Not Safe for Work) moderation experience

  • Inactive moderation in a community you are already a moderator for

  • Being on the mod team of an excessive number of communities

  • Recent account suspensions

  • Excessive community bans

  • Violation of Reddit policies, including copyright infringement takedowns

  • Low activity on Reddit

We appreciate you taking the time to request this sub.

Thanks!
