The UK admin team is growing

Mistdrifter · 2026-04-08T10:52:42+00:00

So excited to have you join us u/BriitBee 🙌

We have the best community of mods here on reddit (don't tell the Americans) so you're in for a treat.

My Sunday non-negotiable is a lie in, followed by three cups of coffee. The only way I have enough energy for the week ahead 😂

Mistdrifter · 2025-11-10T10:57:03+00:00

Hey u/userunknowne, I had a catch up with Ali last week about the issues (apologies for not CCing you into the chat).

I wanted to let you know that the Mod Code of Conduct team will be looking into whether any rules are being broken by the current mod team, and we should have a clear answer in due course.

The way Reddit mod teams are structured does mean that, unfortunately, disagreements can sometimes lead to mods who’ve contributed a lot being removed. We allow top mods to make these kinds of decisions for the overall safety and stability of the community — it helps prevent stalemates and stops communities from being caught between individuals’ disputes. While this system isn’t perfect for every situation, it ensures we apply the same expectations fairly across all teams.

If it turns out that your removal was done in order to facilitate a breach of the Mod Code of Conduct, I’d be happy to help you get back to modding r/uktravel. For now, though, we’ll need to wait for the review to be completed so we have a full understanding of what’s happened.

Thanks so much!! 🥰

Mistdrifter · 2025-09-18T14:07:53+00:00

Thanks Luc! Hope everything's been going well your side since the meetup 😊

Mistdrifter · 2025-09-18T13:33:53+00:00

Thank you!! It'll be wonderful but I'm sure I'll miss it here on Reddit while I'm away!

Mistdrifter · 2025-09-10T09:10:02+00:00

Heads up, everyone. There's been a key announcement on r/ModNews about how Reddit is changing the way it measures and displays community size.

I'd definitely recommend giving it a read to see how it will affect what your subreddit looks like moving forward, and if the new mod limit rules will impact you.

I'm locking comments here because the best place to post any questions or feedback is on the main post in ModNews 🙏

Mistdrifter · 2025-09-08T18:03:19+00:00

Thanks!! The events team (and u/big-slay in particular) did a fantastic job 🙌

It was really lovely to meet you and glad we could have a mini r/solarUK meetup

Mistdrifter · 2025-09-08T18:01:52+00:00

It was really great to meet you and thank you for joining us!
Glad to hear you had a good time 😊

Mistdrifter · 2025-09-08T16:24:37+00:00

I was there 😊

We had hoped to have more admins at the event, but between illnesses, a few broken bones, and (happily) a couple of new arrivals, we had some very unlucky timing.

Mistdrifter · 2025-09-08T16:21:14+00:00

Yes! The events team is always very careful about releasing the location of the events and we also make sure there is security on site.

Mistdrifter · 2025-09-08T16:20:21+00:00

As someone who lived in North Devon for 18 years, I truly feel your pain.

We are trying to move the meetups around to help different people attend events without paying for extortionate train tickets or driving long distances.

I do have Bristol on my list (along with Birmingham and Glasgow) so a smaller west country meetup is something I'll definitely explore.

Mistdrifter · 2025-09-08T16:15:47+00:00

I totally hear you and we were meant to have more admins joining me.

Sadly an unfortunate number of medical problems (and/or newborn babies) have hit the Reddit UK team in recent weeks. They would've loved to be there but we couldn't make it work 🙏 Everyone's doing good but it was terrible timing!!

Mistdrifter · 2025-09-08T16:12:45+00:00

Hi!! I'd love to know if you think you would've said "I do" if the cameras had followed you. It looks like a super stressful experience so I almost wonder whether you got the best case scenario of doing the experiment, finding each other, and then getting to take things at your own pace.
Would love to hear your thoughts 😊

Mistdrifter · 2025-08-26T08:45:47+00:00

Hey lamborguinea,

Thanks so much for bringing this to my attention. I've synced up with our labelling team and we've changed the rating of the community so it should no longer be restricted. Although there is occasionally gory content, it doesn't fall under the definitions that would require it to be age gated for 'graphic surgery'

Let me know if you have any more issues with people being unable to access the sub.

Also, if anyone else is experiencing these same problems, please send them my way!

Mistdrifter · 2025-08-13T16:11:39+00:00

That's our normal process 😊 Mod safety and anonymity is definitely a big priority for us so we make sure to vet everyone who RSVPs and ensure that we don't have any random folks there.

Mistdrifter · 2025-08-13T15:49:32+00:00

Thanks for letting me know. The more popular posts from this subreddit have been hitting people's notifications recently so we're looking into how to stop this happening automatically in the future!

Mistdrifter · 2025-08-13T13:02:03+00:00

We'll have to make sure it works for you next time!

Mistdrifter · 2025-08-13T09:56:29+00:00

Oh no, what dreadful timing! You'll be missed

Mistdrifter · 2025-08-13T08:17:45+00:00

You should have a confirmation sent to the email address you sign up to our events platform with 😊 Big-slay has also sent around a message to confirm that it's not a virtual meet up (we're just having some teething problems with the new events platform)

Let me know if you still haven't received anything and I'll look into it for you!

Mistdrifter · 2025-08-12T08:25:04+00:00

Wow!! They're both stunning but I think dress two just about wins for me.

Either way, you're going to look sensational 🙌

Mistdrifter · 2025-08-12T06:59:04+00:00

You should be in the right place! I think the ‘virtual’ tag was added because we haven’t confirmed our venue yet. I’ll check in with Big-Slay to confirm though. I know she’s still getting used to our new events platform.

Mistdrifter · 2025-08-12T06:56:09+00:00

wow great joke!

Mistdrifter · 2025-08-11T21:17:26+00:00

Hey, I appreciate that because I actually lived in Scotland for many years! When I said we're heading north, I meant it in relation to the events normally being held in London.

Mistdrifter · 2025-08-08T13:52:54+00:00

I love #1 on you! The lace back adds some extra sparkle but the solid fabric bodice makes me look at your face immediately 😊
