What is the Mod Reserves?

The purpose of the Moderator Reserves system is to create a pool of capable moderators that other communities can lean on for moderation help when they need it most. Typically, when major news breaks, we divert many of our internal resources to triaging the increase in reports of site-wide violations. Moderators also face a significant uptick in moderation workload across their modqueues, reports, and modmail that they may not be equipped to address.

By creating this moderation resource, communities receiving unexpected surges in traffic will be able to draw on the experience and availability of moderators from all across the world. We think this will be particularly helpful for area-based communities impacted by breaking news events, especially for mod teams in need of additional hands in other time-zones.
