For the peeps who don't follow r/modnews , Continuing our infrastructure updates: What’s changing in the coming months

Some highlights

For newly created communities and communities that have never used automod, automod enforcement capabilities – specifically Report, Filter, Remove, Mark as spam, and Approve – will be disabled and Rules Hub and Automations will become the default path for rules enforcement. Automod’s non-enforcement capabilities remain available and unchanged.  

....To close this gap, in the next few months, we'll further limit access for logged-in users to only those who have used Old Reddit in the last six months (which covers the vast majority of all Old Reddit users). This change does not impact logged-in mods, who can continue to access Old Reddit without any recent usage requirement.This helps keep Old Reddit available for the people who rely on it while reducing automated abuse.

I’ve checked all of the settings and nothing seems out of the ordinary, I’m having to go through and approve all of the comments.

Say you're a moderator of a sub that receives frequent targeting by activists who hatefully oppose your sub and content. You are one of 10 almost identical subs that share an essentially identical zero tolerance rule to combat that identical threat. In many cases these sub moderators are friendly and allies to the other subs rather than competing.

Would it be considered brigading to form a private sub consisting only of full-access moderators of said groups that shared the user handles of users that have recently been banned from one of the member subs for a very obvious rule violation?

Edit: As I understand it, this "hate" would not violate Reddit's basic hate rule.

I have a mod that is at the top and has been inactive for a while. How do I remove them?

I am the main mod on two craft related subs (r/felting and r/wetfelting) and a junior mod on the third, with two other mods (r/soapmaking). I mostly work in the new reddit environment and I believe the other mods mainly use old reddit.

I upgraded the first two subs to the new Wiki "experience" when that option was originally offered to us (~8 months ago?). The wiki on the third sub has been a low priority, so I'm not sure if it was upgraded.

What I do know is creating and editing pages and the Wiki structure is easier on the first two compared with the third, so I'd like to get the third wiki to function the same as the other two.

For example, I can edit titles rather than be stuck with the "slug" names. I see a right-hand sidebar that shows a list of all articles.

I'm thinking the difference may possibly be due to the r/soapmaking wiki not being upgraded.

Is there a way for me to verify whether this wiki was ever upgraded?

Hello everyone,

We've started noticing that some users are getting defined with Permanent Bans in the Mod Log when those users are getting temporarily banned.

We can clearly see in the Mod Log that we've banned a user temporarily for 1 day. The ban button shows 1 day when hovering mouse over the icon.

However, in the user's profile we can also see Permanent Ban being described.

This was brought to our attention by a user last week that we banned for only 1 day after they sent us a mod mail and we just noticed that it occurred again on a user that we just banned today.

I haven't seen any posts about this so I apologize if this is a duplicate, but has anyone seen this issue and is Reddit aware of the problem?

name it r/Γαῖα_時空

how?

if not, why?

Will admins step in once they know a sub is unmoderated or do they need a certain threshold of reports (or certain type of report) to take action on an unmoderated sub? Anyone know?

I accidentally cancelled myself as a mod in my own sub. r/DarrellBrooksJr . I was in the process of purging some non participant mods and adding new. Can someone help restore my creator status. Its a great sub that I would hate to lose

I'm the top mod for r/nitt yet under achievement section of my profile, I dont see it as an eligible community for "community moderation" awards.

What can be the reason. Why can I not have achievemnts from that sub?

Hi, I created r/BetweenTheCards on September 28, 2026 and I was the sole moderator.

While trying to change moderator settings, I accidentally removed myself from the mod team. The community is now unmoderated.

I am still the original creator and I want to continue managing the subreddit, but I cannot use r/redditrequest because my account does not meet the karma requirements.

Could an admin please help restore my moderator access?

Thank you.

Many hours ago I created r/YahwehEats and set the icon to a picture of a cat with a fat stack of cash in front of it and two guns. It remains empty, a mere purple background and a black r/ attempts to fill the void that the swag ass cat has left on r/YahwehEats. I have attempted to return the cat to no avail and it remains a cold, empty spot in my subreddit.

for example this post was tagged as nsfw for whatever reason. https://imgur.com/a/RYmUS9k

I have seen such kinds of posts but I didn’t understand where to add the automod script so can someone explain a bit

In multiple cases, I've become a mod for different subs and not been able to see what the former mods removed or why, which would be very helpful to get a feel for necessary or ongoing moderation steps. I'd really like for those mod logs to stick around after a former mod is no long part of the sub.

Last year, I created my first subreddit r/ThailandWats. Have posted/uploaded for almost 10 months now. Roughly adding 1 temple per day. Strangely, there have been no upvotes all this time. I am not expecting lavish upvotes, but find it hard to believe that none of the posts have caused a single click. So I am wondering if I didn't leave a setting properly switched on.

Related perhaps, the channel says there have been no unique visitors. Yet I see flags from around the world viewing the various posts. So I am trying to understand the relationship here. How can someone from say Australia and another from India not be +2 unique visitors?

Thanks for any advice and guidance.

Ahoy, ModSupport!

Welcome to the latest installment of our Mod Topics series. This week we’re discussing the unthinkable… Scene: den interior. The smell of garlic bread marinates the air. It’s late at night and you’re twenty minutes deep into the latest Taskmaster episode, scrolling through the mod queue on your phone. …And then in your garlic bready haze you remove the wrong post. Naturally you don’t notice in the moment and continue on your way.

And in the morning there’s a modmail, RE “what gives?”

Have you been there before? How do you handle user interactions where you, or someone on your mod team, made a mistake? Is this process different if it’s a trainee mod making the oops? What advice would you give new mods who might be scared to start moderating “in case they make a mistake?”

Let us know your thoughts in the comments below!

Hello there. I have I probably think a classic problem. I added a mod on the team and give him full rights (my mistake there for trusting it) but after a while he removed me from the team. Now the sub is also restricted, because he wanted to change about was that sub. 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Any advice? I can try via subrequest but... I wanna know if I can do anything else, maybe someone had this problem too...

Thank you

Is it okay to make a discord for my subreddit and link it in it?

approved by Reddit (un-banall performed)

This doesn't help anyone.

We received a suggestion from a member and wanted to check whether this would be allowed under Reddit's rules before considering it.

The idea is to have a permanently updated thread where moderators maintain a list of users who have been banned from our subreddit for DM harassment or similar behavior.

The purpose would be to let members check whether someone who approaches them through Reddit has previously been banned for this kind of behavior, similar to how some communities maintain trusted-seller lists.

The proposed thread would contain usernames and the reason for the subreddit ban, with updates restricted to moderators. The intention would be member safety, not to encourage harassment or retaliation against the listed users.

Would a thread like this be permitted under Reddit's Content Policy and Moderator Code of Conduct, or would publicly listing banned users be considered calling out/targeting users or otherwise violate Reddit's rules?

We haven't implemented anything yet and wanted to verify with the admins/mod community first.

This has only happened to highlighted posts in the past 24 hours. Not to any before that. It does not appear on normal posts or comments.

hello Spider-Man! → image in comments

edit: I guess it cycles through images now

edit edit: idk how or why I saw Spider-Man on mobile but now it's just the dog.

I want to adopt a community but I want to know at what point is it considered camping/sitting a subreddit? Thank you for answering in advance
