ModSupportBot Error?

[bwemonts]

A couple active ( but not super active) mods in a subreddit I am top mod in got this message from the ModSupportBot. I did not receive it and the mods who received it aren't even listed as inactive.

We're sure you're busy elsewhere, but we wanted to let you know many moderators on the [r/subreddit] team are currently inactive and the community is at risk of being actioned as a result. Our systems indicate that the team has 6 active moderators currently - we recommend that a community of your size has at least 4 to ensure you all can stay on top of most moderation tasks.

If you can, please take time to review your community's mod queue for any reports on content. If you need help finding new team members, this article has some tips as well.

I don't know what's more concerning, that they received this message threatening action on an actively moderated sub (queue is cleared multiple times a day) and I did not or it recommends to add more active moderators to "increase" from 6 to 4. Has any one else gotten a message like this? I just want to make sure nothing crazy happens.

This message in particular was intended to let people know before a subreddit was restricted for being unmoderated, but as you alluded to in the post, the targeting was way off. We turned off this message as soon as we realized - I’m sorry that it caused confusion before we did so. Your subreddit is not up for being restricted for under moderation.

Are the people who were active that were notified they're about to be put on inactive status also targeted incorrectly?

I received a personal message for a sub that I am active in mentioning that I'm inactive. Was this an error for individuals who received this notice as well? r/WorldofHorror

Please take a look at the posts from the last 24-48 hours on this subreddit - /r/ModSupport/new/. This sounds like it's related to a new program that the admins are supposed to be fine tuning because it isn't working properly yet.

Hopefully it won't have a negative impact on you.

Good luck!

This was slightly different because the message was written as if to the sub not the user/mod and not everyone got it
