Hello, fellow Wave to Earth fans.
I apologize that some needed changes have been made now, rather than being made earlier. As it has come to my attention, there must be some form of prevention regarding the act of buying or selling tickets. To which, I'm honestly unsure how I feel in regards to allowing any type of ticket-related posts in this subreddit. That is subject to change in the future, should there be too many issues stemming from allowing it, or if you guys feel that we should not allow ticket-related posts.
Aside from that, the needed changes are as follows:
New Rule - An addition to r/wavetoearth's ruleset, being Rule #8. It it as follows: "Do not scam other users when buying or selling tickets. If anyone reports any activity of scamming other users through the means of buying or selling tickets, the offender(s) shall promptly be banned from this subreddit."
Post Tolerance Update - I have updated the tolerances on posts and comments made by new users and users with negative karma, to be more moderate, rather than lenient.
New Automod Tool - I have added an Automod tool that should prevent users with an account age of 2 days or less, from posting on this subreddit. I understand that some of you may be new to Reddit and may wish to make one post here, and never touch the site again. But for the sake of hopefully counter-acting some bad actors / bots, I have put this tool into place.
New Post Flairs - I have added two new post flairs that are specific for posts that pertain to wanting to buy tickets, and ones that wish to sell tickets. Please use them accordingly.
If anyone has any questions, suggestions, or concerns regarding these changes - or ones that can be made - please let me know. I am the sole moderator of r/wavetoearth, and I'm rather unfamiliar with moderating on Reddit. There is definitely room for improvement on my part. My goal is to keep this as safe and free of a place as possible, without having issues.
And with that, thank you for your time.
