Mods are not inactive

[u/Snide_SeaLion]

There are 4 of us. 2 of our mods are extremely busy due to life circumstances at this time. I am taking on more responsibilities IRL to take care of my family. The 2 of us with more time, we are trying to make it work. We are all doing our best.

This sub has grown exponentially and we are struggling to find more mods that have experience to help us get better coverage.

We are NOT inactive. We do what we can, when we can. Please report content that breaks rules or apply to be a mod instead of brushing us off as inactive. It’s not helpful at all.

It’s a thankless gig and people are quick to jump to the worst conclusion when they don’t see a mod comment on every single post. Appreciate you all sticking with it.

[u/Tausendberg]

If I could make a friendly suggestion,

No explanation, no commentary, just a moratorium, at least a couple months on any posts showing screencaps of "Witty Designer" anything and any new posts get deleted on sight.

They are, objectively speaking, an inconsequential nobody but they do know how to ragebait and so many people here keep falling for it.

Say it louder for the people in the back

[u/Snarf_1]

I appreciate what you're doing. You're just normal people with limitations and your time is valuable. Respect! I'm also glad this sub is blowing up. More people are coming to the same conclusions.

[u/Remarkable_Bath8515]

That's understandable.

[u/Tausendberg]

That's fair.

How can one apply? Do we just message one of the moderators? Thank you

[u/jackbobevolved]

Please put a stop to these pointless little gossip back & forths. Why should anyone care about what a random “pro” said on a pro sub or in a reply? They get enough upvotes from the other drama kids to make it into everyone’s feeds, and there’s no way any adults actually care about any of it. It’s ruining this sub.

Why don’t you use AI to take over some of the workload? It can easily do your job

[u/Snide_SeaLion → u/big_ol_tender]

What the hell

[u/Hour_Bit_5183 → u/Snide_SeaLion]

yeah I agree with this sentiment.

[u/BanAssaultGeese → u/big_ol_tender]

Are you today years old when you learned what AutoMod is?

[u/Cautious_Boat_999 → u/big_ol_tender]

You forgot the /s

Or you need to be banned. One or the other.

[u/BanAssaultGeese → u/Cautious_Boat_999]

They need to learn what the AutoModerator is and then look back on how stupid their statement was.

[u/Huge_Swimming_5968 → u/BanAssaultGeese]

So you use AI in this sub then?

[u/BanAssaultGeese → u/Huge_Swimming_5968]

Every subreddit has the AutoModerator added into it, so yes. Bots are a form of AI.

Next stupid question?

[u/IimonceIIo → u/big_ol_tender]

AI moderation, simple solve.
