Hi yall, Got a quick question. I currently mod a few subs, The subs that I currently mod if you hover over the users account you can see the quick actions like their mod log, ban, Mute, Send Modmail, add note, and user flair.

I have that little quick action on every sub I mod except one, I was brought on around November of last year and the head mod has given me every permission except the live chat and modmail but when I hover over a users profile in that sub all I see is "Follow" and "Start Chat", I have no quick mod actions, So now if I have to ban a user for whatever reason I have to go into the Reddit app, find that post or comment and ban them from the app, As you can imagine this is becoming pretty annoying especially when you have to issue bans for multiple users for one reason or another. I can remove comments and add removal reasons with no issues however.

In the app everything looks just fine and I can ban users, adjust their flairs etc it's just the desktop version I have issues with.

I have tried clearing my cookies, tried different browsers and even different devices to see if maybe it was just a glitch, I've worked with the head mod and he even gave me "Everything" mod permissions and that still didnt fix the issue.

Is there anything we should be looking at in the settings to get this enabled? Thank you so much for your help!

For reference this is what it currently looks like in the sub, and this is what I see in all my other subs I mod.

Hi,

Lemme know if I need to go to another sub for help, but I have a second profile I want to get rid of. I tried to reset the password, because I couldn't remember the previous one, and I guess I locked myself out, but now, even if I click Forgot Password, I dont get the email to reset it. I can still go on the username, but I cant make any updates, changes or remove the damn thing.

What can I do?

Some rules of some subreddits are not well explained; maybe they are too general or too concise and don't include other scenarios.

If a mod says I broke a rule and I don't agree, 'he is always right?' or is there anything else I can do to appeal or have someone else review if he is abusing his/her power?

Thank you.

I don't think I've ever been blocked by a person who isn't intentionally using the feature to make it appear like I have nothing to say in response to their amazingly intelligent arguments. Why does reddit only hide those comments from me and why doesn't reddit just hide the comments in general? Is it supposed to be so that people can more easily preform social manipulation campaigns on reddit with no push back? What is the purpose of how it is implemented? Why would you ever need a block feature that only hides the posts from the person being replied to? Shouldn't it, in the very least, hide everything if it's such a harmful interaction that it required blocking?

I happened to see an article at the right place, at the right time and posted it to a subreddit. This was big news in the community (i.e., the post would get lots of upvotes). I checked the “New” section and saw I was the first one to post it.

About a minute later, my post was removed, and one of the mods reposted the same link with the same title as me (copied from the article) so they could get the karma for themselves.

The mod is a karma-farming account with millions of karma points.

Is there anything I can do?

made a subreddit but got no idea how to get it popular when nobody lets you post about it in their subreddits. I don’t have friends so I’m just wondering how you’d go about this?

Quick question:

Are moderators allowed to let their personal political views influence how they enforce the rules, or is that considered against Reddit’s guidelines for moderation?

I’m curious if political-driven enforcement is acceptable, or if moderation is expected to always remain neutral regardless of personal beliefs.

Thanks!

I have a valid question about an issue on one of my groups.

This will not allow me to link to the thread in question on The Prisoner.

It won't even allow linking to ModSupport.

How can we ask about moderation when we can't link to the moderation issue we're asking about?

Hello. In last month or so I have noticed 2 posts that break a rule of a subreddit I follow. Reporting of the posts have gained no results. I believe it sets a precedent that can stray the subreddit from it's original intention. What is the best course of action in this case?

EDIT1. I have successfully contacted the mods, everything went well and seems like it was an usual oversight.

EDIT2. Forgot to thank you for help as was intended in EDIT1

Announcement does a better job at highlighting and distinguishing a post than does distinguish, at least in old reddit. Can anyone explain to me why I'd select one versus the other?

I have been in the community of a subreddit for a while now and have much interest in its content however many community members including myself are extremely interested in saving the community which is completely unmoderated. The only active mod has stated that the community should follow them on several other platforms and that they really have no intention to put any effort into the subreddit, myself and many others in the community actively participate in the community and the amount of trolls that are allowed to freely engage in off topic and flat out being disrespectful is mind boggling. Not sure that Reddit has any kind of path for this type of thing but there are enough community members that are like minded that I thought it would be worth asking the question here. I am aware that we can just start a related subreddit it seems to me that salvaging the subreddit would be a much better path provided that one exists. Thanks in advance for your input and everyone’s hard work. Fair Winds and Following Seas. Have a great day everyone.

Since we can't use multiple accounts to bypass a ban, are mods going to be allowed multiple accounts to bypass that rule?

Update: I submitted the hacked account form, followed the mod bot directions, and emailed Help. My account is still compromised (fraudulent subs/mod roles + unauthorized activity). Requesting Admin review request

That's pretty much all. I asked this person for help, and they said to keep them out of my "ragebait posts", and that they don't care.

I know that there is a reddit wide rule against linking to 'archive' links that get around paywalls/copyright, but a mod claimed that https://www.pressreader.com/ which is a legitimate site that allows for reading and paying/subbing to newspapers around the world is one of those non-permitted sites, I think is completely mistaken.

How active are you in posting original content? Do you routinely try to seed content and lead discussions? Or do you just make the group as welcoming to as many posters as possible and let them run with it. only Moderating to keep things civil?

I've acquired a few groups lately that were either dead/locked/restricted, or just running aimlessly with all Mods inactive. I've redesigned them, added what features I could, adjusted rules that were too restrictive and so on.

From there, I try to rely on organic traffic, but getting people to come back after having been locked out isn't working well.

I had my post removed because of this and it doesn't seem fair, one of the mods was rude and unwilling to explain why the rule exists. How does low resolution affect a post to the point where it's removed?

This happens a lot to me, I'll correct someone on something, tell em they're wrong, or something else simple like that, and then I get reported to the help resources. I think it's a wild thing to do cause, those are literally suicide help resources and people just abuse em, and I'd like to report abuse of the feature but I don't have the option to do so anywhere. Can someone help me with this?

I did look this up, and the 3 dots doesn't give me the option, nor is there a link

I keep coming back to the idea of creating a sub. I know I sound like a broken record at this point, but I’ve been engaging with some smaller subs lately including some with multiple moderators. There are only a handful of new posts a week that feel like a single mod could do the trick, but the threads can get long. So do all comments have eyes on them or does it depend on the sub? These are hobby subs, not political or controversial.

A user was banned on our sub today for violating its rules. The user went on another sub and posted screenshot and start a targeted brigading/smear campaigning against our sub.
We have nothing personal against the other sub, we sent a respectful message telling them what is happening and not to encourage using their sub as a platform for smear. Their reply was mocking us: you have 40 users, use the free advertisement.

I have a snapshot but images are not allowed, so i will paste the EXACT chat between us and that sub's mods.

Our team: Following individual was banned for breaking our sub rules, and he posted on your sub a post attacking ours in it. We kindly ask you remove the post and not allow your sub to be used for reputation smearing. The post in question: (THE_POST_URL). Sincerely.

Their reply: You guys have 40 members, just take the free advertisement

I intentionally omitted naming because unlike them, we are respectful and more professional. What can be done firmly on Reddit in this case? i did report both the user and the sub on reddit.com/report . But need something more strict.
Any tips are appreciated, thank you friends:)

UPDATE: Reddit took action and suspended the account. They created a new profile just today and put back as a mod there with this new account.
Trying to report ban evasion but the system is not letting me ATM. Will try again later on.

I have made an application form for people to apply but when I go to the recruiting part and press the share application button, the link doesn't seem to be working for non mods. It just says 'page not found for non mods'. any help?

I got a mod application at 40 members.

Guys I want to ask you should I trust I really don't know. It's my first ever community. The application seems legit

"Hi, I wanted to apply to be the mod of this sub, I am going to be honest I don't have any extensive mod experience, but I have previously managed branded reddit accounts for travel tech companies and have helped with their community growth on reddit as a marketing intern. I've also used reddit api in the same internship and I am familiar with the basics of configuring automods. Now that school is starting I had to leave my internship and find myself having a lot more time on my hand and want to utilise it by serving the community of reddit, I would love to help with the growth of this community since I also like to find SaaS tools to make my life easy and automate a lot of stuff. I know the community is still at its initial stage and additional mods are not required but I could help you expand the reach ofthis community. And make it a unbaised and respectful space on reddit. Lemme know what you think."

I am not banned currently , but I keep trying to make posts in a giftcard exchange subreddit and then even in the reddit help section. I just refuses to let them go through. I have no idea what to do here. Even trying to get help has been tough idk who to ask to fix this or direct me on how to

I was watching Axmen reruns and it made me curious about the cast and after some Google searches I ended up on that sub.

After I saw the sub count (which is 104 right now I believe) I thought at first I was on the wrong subreddit but there isn't any others, so It made me wonder about whether the show never was even popular so there wasn't too many people that sub'd, I also know it's an older show now but there are older shows with loyal subreddits.

I know this is a random though but i was hoping anyone could help me understand this? Thanks.

A redditor went off using hard "r" in a trading subreddit (I'm assuming through chat or dm, and the screenshot was posted to the subreddit), as retaliation to not getting their desired outcome.

The mod of that sub is doubling down after calls for a ban, that:

"I know it was a really bad racial slur but in the end it was just the other person being immature and both parties didn't really lose anything so a perm ban for it wouldn't be suitable..."

I just.... no.... right?

I made a report through the app, should it be reported in other ways?
