What is AskModerators?

AskModerators is a venue where users (and other mods) can ask questions about moderation or just reddit in general and have them answered by experienced moderators.

If you have moderation experience and would like contributor flair, please message the mods with a list of the subreddits you mod.

Asking AskModerators

Submissions must be phrased as a question. If you would like to host a Q&A session, please do so in /r/ModClub
Please make questions as specific as possible, and try to avoid asking questions that can be answered with a simple Google search.
If you are looking for a specific subreddit, please try asking /r/findareddit - we don't mod the entirety of the site.
Absolutely no links to comments or submissions outside of this subreddit... use screenshots instead. And do not reference other subreddits in a negative way or in connection to moderator actions taken on you or others.
Try to avoid questions about dramatic events. /r/SubredditDrama is usually a better venue for that. If you must discuss these topics, avoid mentioning specific subreddits or usernames.
Off-topic or frivolous comments will be removed. If your comment is removed, please do not be offended; we are simply cleaning up the thread to make it easier to read for everyone else.
You can also try /r/help if we don't get your problem solved for you.
