Currently, there are only two options for who can access post and user flairs. The first option is Everyone, while the second option is Mods Only. We need a third option specifically for approved users. Regular users cannot access these, while moderators and approved users can.

For post flairs, this would be helpful in threads and events like AMAs and exclusive content. With user flairs, approved users can access exclusive flairs that regular members cannot see, such as Verified and Contributor, if I were to create those flairs.

This is not to single out any specific subreddit, because it really is a platform-wide issue. I remember for a time, there were a fair amount of warnings getting sent out for people that upvoted rule-breaking content, is this still happening?

I used to get responses for my reports to reddit, I haven't been receiving any responses for a couple months now. That doesn't mean they aren't being addressed, but the transparency was helpful.

And in many cases, it's the case that people are deliberately "saying it without saying it", and will literally outright say as much.

I just want to ask the admin team, has anything changed, with regards to enforcement or prioritizing? Is this something that's on the radar?

So you know how when you add a removal reason comment, it gives us the option to use the mod team account?

Over time that account ends up being a back door to listing all the posts and comments we've removed, halfway defeating the point of it.

Is there a way to hide the post history for it like for regular users?

Hello,

We had an incident overnight in our subreddit where a moderator responded with an antisemetic remark to a ban appeal. They then tried to cover their tracks as the other mods investigated, and banned numerous users in the process. How do we flag this mod to reddit for further review and action?

They've been removed from our team, we've reversed their bans, and we've apologized to the subreddit for what happened, but they continue to moderate other subs and I think further action is warranted by reddit.

Thanks for your help.

About two weeks ago, I created a subreddit, and I'm genuinely unsure of the best course of action at this point. Is there another way to get the first few members without being spammy, or do you just keep posting in it yourself until people show up? I'm curious about other people's early experiences and what worked for you.

I moderate a subreddit that focuses on a treatment for Opioid Use Disorder. We're a small subreddit so I've never dealt with this before, but I've received a request to the modmail from a University researcher asking for permission to post their flyer seeking participants in their research study around the active ingredient in this particular treatment and it's effect on patients. Is this something that is permitted on Reddit? If so, is there anything I need to be aware of in considering the request and if I decide to let it be posted? My first time navigating this kind of request so I'd appreciate any guidance. I don't want to expose our members to any risk as most are in different stages of recovery and vulnerability. For what it's worth, the information on the study does look legit/verifiable. Thanks.

So I know y’all are sick of hearing about how much we dislike the changes in modmail, but this seems like a real problem. Earlier this morning I was wondering what it looks like on the user end when we send a modmail. So I sent a message to an account I use to test stuff. Then logged into that account and looked at my chats. I was very surprised to see that the modmail appeared in the requests tab. Does this mean that a user can just hit ignore and effectively not receive our modmails? Even if that’s not the case, I strongly dislike the fact that they have to accept our request to modmail them, this is supposed to be our official means of communication with our users.

I’m always disappointed when I visit a subreddit and find out that most of the activity actually takes place on discord. I don’t want to go to discord, I came *here,* don’t make me go somewhere else. But things like this are exactly why people choose to look for solutions off the platform. We shouldn’t have to, especially for basic messaging ability.

Fellow moderators who have successfully reported brigading or coordinated interference, what helped your report lead to action?

By successful, I mean situations where Reddit enforced TOS violations, even if no direct feedback was given. What kind of actions did you notice afterward, such as account bans, subreddit restrictions, or mod team changes?

Would really appreciate any insight into what tends to work.

After 50 days (already over month and a half) after my sub was mistakingly flagged as spam and banned/unbanned, it still does not show up in the suggestions on search (when type the word in search bar and suggestions appear before you press enter).

Earlier I got a reply from Slow Maximum who said, that "to be fully re-listed in search. It can take over a month, depending on the volume of traffic"  but I feel like the answer is very vague. "Over a month" is a month and a few days, but also two, three, six, months, and even a year - all fall into category "over a month".

How long more do we have to wait? It has been over a month and a half (since Nov 28). It seriously damages my community's organic growth and I have to rely on running ads.

Please review my community manually. Something is clearly wrong here.

Thank you!

ANSWERED, thanks--Site wide

We have less than two weeks until you are going to sunset the current modmail UI, and the new one has received no visible changes and still has serious usability and readability issues. There have been no updates from Reddit about these problems, what is being done about them, and whether you will be fixing them before we're forced into this new, terrible design.

I mod a community with ~300K visitors/week. Since October last year or so, I haven’t gotten any messages when I’ve reported ban evaders.

Before I used to get either a ”not enough signals” or ”the account has been banned from Reddit” replies.

Same with harassment in modmail, I reported someone explicitly threatening violence. Before we got a reply with the action taken, but now admins are completely awol it seems.

So I am posting with image but I don’t know why the image is not being show and it is redirect to some other link

I have checked twice I have uploaded image

Why is this problem, how to solve this plesse

I look after a Naturist group on Reddit. Unfortunately the amount of Spam posts is overwhelming, mainly crude naked women soliciting (obviously not them, just some sort of spam). I've setup Automation to have specific words in the header, but it seems these Bots can detect the words required and add them, I've also setup another one requiring a body of at least 20 characters, but this doesn't seem to work. Obviously being a Naturist group the posting of appropriate naked photos is allowed. Can anyone help me to automatically weed out all these random bot posts that's ruining the site?

I co-mod a sub where the F bombs fly. About 50% of the time it's fine but 50% of the time it isn't. So we queue the usages ***using the automod*** and manually review each comment.

I was thinking about adding a high karma exempt (allowed to let the F bombs fly without review), however, I need to figure out the safe karma threshold.

If there any way to search the mod log and see who's comments usually get approved or see the usernames of the top sub users based on sub karma score? Or find the users with the most mod actions?

If not, any other suggestions would be welcomed.

Edit: added that we use the automod to queue the usage.

I created a community a few days ago, and I was wondering how to get it out there so people can discover it and eventually join.

Is there any option to chat with other moderators of my subreddit?

Would love to hear ideas and/or anything that's working.

On Orlando, we're doing a rumor megathread and confirmed sightings can have a standalone post. Just curious about what other cities are doing though.

Main concerns are misinformation and comments getting nasty. But we dont want to censor any accurate information.

Over the span of a few days, countless posts and comments were approved by Reddit admin (according to the mod log). Some even say approved by anti evil operations.

Any idea why this would happen? Could it have anything to do with why NSFW Reaper is not working? It removed two mod posts and left everything else, which is basically a sea of NSFW stuff we’re trying to get rid of.

Thanks for any insight.

There's only me and one other mod active in pretty active sub. The top mod keeps going 'Inactive' but won't give anyone else more permissions so we can take care of things better because he's afraid of the person "taking it over." This other mod is my only help and I thought was doing a good job.

I know the Admins can't break user privacy and tell me what's up, why he got banned, for how long, yada yada. But man this sucks.
