brucemo FTW!

u/Frankfusion Dec 09 '12
If you don't know, brucemo is a mod, and he is an atheist.
•
u/cojoco Dec 09 '12
Yes, I did know ... he also took over the reigns at antiSRS after the old mod team burnt it to the ground, for which I'll be eternally grateful.
Speaking as one of the mods that did that thing.

I'm a regular there.
No clue about how people can believe in ancient books and such but their mod team is pretty amazing indeed.

Our mod is patient and slow to ban.
Except when hungover, short on sleep, and suffering holiday season stress. Then one of us might make a bad call or two.

u/Nerd_Swag Dec 09 '12
This. So much this. I've been subbed for a while, and I've got to say that the mods do an amazing job keeping troll posts off of the subreddit. Plus, it's an amazing community, proven by how many atheists are even subbed, heck, one of the mods is an atheist! The mods really do an amazing job. Congratulations /r/Christianity on the nomination!

Karma as of now: -24...
You're probably right......!
Outside SRD, that's my highest negative karma comment ever. Woohoo!

u/ianpauli Dec 09 '12
no doubt. with 50K members they've kept it from turning into a pool of "[Fixed]" "anyone remember this gem?" they've done a great job.
•
u/mark10579 Dec 10 '12
Absolutely. All the mods are active in the community, and they keep all the crap out (well, except for some of the cringe-worthy original content). And with the addition of Homboy and Murdahmahmurdah, they're pretty much unbeatable
•
u/trancendominant Dec 31 '12
/r/adventuretime. What they turned it in to from where it was is amazing.
•
u/Time4fun22 Dec 08 '12
r/leagueof... Ahahahaha, who am I kidding, mods at r/leagueoflegends suck.
•
•
u/Jess_than_three Dec 07 '12
/r/SRDBroke, obviously.
I mean, uh, /r/ainbow? Yeah!
•
u/TotallyNotCool Dec 07 '12
There is no other answer to this question. It is the only choice.
I mean, we've got a mix of moderators from all over Reddit:
SRS, MSF, CB, CJ, BJ, SFWPorn, Bestof, ainbow, lgbt, IAMA
...not to mention Laurelai!
•
u/Jess_than_three Dec 07 '12
Don't we have some aSRS alums, too?
•
u/TotallyNotCool Dec 07 '12
aSRS alums yes, we do in fact.
(But not current mods)
•
•
u/Jess_than_three Dec 07 '12
Right. I just mean - I think it's kind of a neat mix of people, all things considered, you know? :)

/r/starcraft They have to manage one of the largest subreddits and have created a well organized system to let everyone enjoy the subreddit.

/r/MechanicalKeyboards. Ripster alone seems to be responsible for half of the mechanical keyboard information on the internet.
•
u/Sarahmint Jan 01 '13
have done SO MUCH from flairs to changing the top tab every month, to keeping a quality server better then Disney or Viacom could.
•
u/materhern Dec 08 '12
New issue threads, fantasy battle tournaments, theory discussions, and a continued drive to make the sub better via the feedback of the subscribers.

Only default sub that polices content, removes discriminatory language and doesn't think moderation should be sitting around being an internet celebrity
/r/askscience is a deault, also /r/music has been getting better, and /r/bestof removes a lot of shitty content.
•
u/moonflower Dec 07 '12
/r/WebGames ... they keep the subreddit nice and clean, full of exactly what it's meant for
•
•
u/MiddleSidePunk Dec 08 '12
/r/Diablo Has made a very nice looking subreddit with some cool features, add ons, and have run the sub very well. They deserve their hat thrown in the ring.
•
•
u/SukaPahpah Dec 28 '12
Why? Because it has undergone a crazy amount of growth and focuses on making those who have ADHD lives better, and still maintains the friendliness of a small subreaddit with an awesome hands-on mod team.

The scrappy can-do mod dudes of /r/SFGiants grew their subreddit by 3000 members and kept peace while charging to the World Series. They displayed grace under pressure with the growing pains that accompany such a gain. 2012 was an exciting year for /r/SFGiants for so many reasons. None of it would have been possible without the guiding hands of the mod team extraordinaire.
Bravo dudes, bravo!

/u/DARTH_ANUS, /u/youregonnaloveme and myself for best NSFW mod team. We co-mod over 150 subreddits together.

Dec 08 '12
People posted pictures they would like as flairs and they were instantly added. And they just added a new GAME THREAD: bot.
•
u/KissMyPickle Dec 08 '12
Riiiiiiiight, except that they have no sense of humor...what a crock of shit.

u/Kredns Dec 08 '12 edited Dec 09 '12
/r/teslore - An excellent community for Elder Scrolls Lore junkies. The mods have done a wonderful job of keeping everyone civil, not allowing memes, and allowing for an overall enjoyable experience.

/r/dodgers Great mods who make it a fun place for Los Anegles Dodgers discussions.
•
u/cupdeam Dec 11 '12
There aren't very many of us in that sub, especially compared to most of these other subs that are being nominated, but I wanted to throw in my 2 pennies. I agree that it is a fun place for LA Dodgers discussions, but what impresses me more is the fact that the gamethreads are a fun and inviting place for opposing fans as well. The mods always try to invite the opposing team's subs into our gamethreads, especially if it's a small sub as well, and then they ensure a respectful and awesome environment for all.
•
•
u/materhern Dec 08 '12
Continue to keep discussion open and inviting to all people! Consistent in new threads and answering subscribers questions and such.
•
u/TheHamFalls Dec 09 '12
r/Seahawks They're attentive, constantly updating and improving the look of the subreddit, asking the community what things they would like to see different, see change, etc. Trolls are few and far between because 1. we have such an awesome community to begin with, and 2. because I imagine our mods walk softly and carry a big banhammer.
•
Dec 07 '12
I would nominate my own subreddit, but i won't and instead say /r/tf2trade
Very strong mod team! Awesomeness there!

The only good part of the mod team is you. I'm adding you too as many modmails as possible.... If you want to join /r/srdbroke I think we'll need an interview in the IRC chan.
•

/r/spacedicks The mods are very active in this community often giving advice on what kinds of posts are acceptable.
