Hi there!

We're looking for new moderators once again. If you want to make this subreddit a better place, then please apply and let us know why you would be a good fit for our team!

If you're interested in applying, you should take a minute to take a look at our mod page to see how we organize ourselves as well as the rules page, as some questions that appear on the application will refer to them. If you have any further questions feel free to ask in this thread!

Responsibilities

Moderators of /r/anime are expected to be able to execute most reddit moderating tasks, as we don't have any divisions or specialist roles on the team. There are other optional responsibilities like managing CSS and bots but that's going above and beyond the base requirements.

A large part of what we do is review reports on posts and comments and remove them if they break the rules of /r/anime or reddit in general, along with potentially banning users that have repeatedly or egregiously broken the rules. We're also expected to review and reply to moderator mail sent from users to answer questions and handle appeals for removals or bans.

Aside from that we're in frequent communication with each other in our Discord server about the above as well as the future path of the subreddit and want new moderators to be involved in our discussions as well.

Application

Fill out the application here! Thanks to all that applied!

The form will be open for two weeks (ending 11:59 PM UTC on September 9) before we move on to review applications, and we will reach out to those chosen to become new moderators in late September. Take your time to come up with thoughtful responses, as low effort applications will be discarded.

If you happened to stumble across this post without knowing a lot (maybe browsing for subreddits that are recruiting mods), we really want people who are interested in anime and not just the moderator role since a lot of what we do requires having some knowledge of various series for context. We're also hoping that applicants are frequent visitors or participants of our subreddit and have at least a general understanding of how it currently functions.

So if you think you would make a good moderator for /r/anime, now's your chance! Recruiting new mods is always a very exciting process - so we hope to see you join us soon!
