MODERATORS
 

With the constant growth of our mod team and the demanding nature of actually having lives outside of niche internet communities, Ada and I have come to the decision that the mod team once again needs to expand.
Applications work the same way they did the last two mod calls:
Post a brief write-up on yourself and why you think we should give you moderator status, as well as a link to at least one other social media account. (reddit, twitter, instagram, facebook, mastodon, tumblr, bluesky are all accepted.) If you don't want your alts to be public, you can send them as a private DM to me. Applications don't have a fixed close date, but we're looking for at least four new mods in multiple time zones.

I will be personally selecting all new additions to the mod team. Please be civil, and good luck!

What does a moderator actually do?

[–] regdog@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Not much, apparently.

Hello! I'm not qualified for the position of internet moderator 🥰

But I hope y'all find some good peeps. This is an important little space for me, and good moderation is crucial to maintaining that :3

Feel like this might be an April fools joke (on future mods).

If you need someone to help in the central time zone, I can. I've modded a fairly large discord server where I had to deal with all kinds of unfathomably deranged content that I won't describe here.

I feel confident I could mod judiciously here and follow your style of modding, but I also have a history with some people here, so they might not feel comfortable with me modding, and I totally understand if that's a problem.

My tumblr is in my profile. It's a fairly new account, but I've been on tumblr since maybe a year before dashcon, but that old account got banned for reasons I have honestly never been able to determine. I can share my signal or discord via DM, if you'd prefer that instead.

I dont have any social media accounts more active than this one, but if you still need any more help I keep odd hours and am always available to remove obviously suspect comments. if you can see my reports and comments, thats about all I have as credentials go.

wrenchmonkey@spore.social was my mastodon, if thats even still up.

Hello I'd love to help out the community, I am currently a mod on !egg_irl@lemmy.blahaj.zone and I also have experience modding back on Reddit as well.

How many characters would I be moderating? I believe in structured moderation, where I am only required to monitor the interactions of the same 32 or so characters in this community. Moderators under this system work together by not monitoring each other's characters. So, that works out to a strict 32:1 character:mod ratio.
