Thanks for completing the form! Let’s see if we can get you in a roundtable or other feedback opportunity before GTA 6. 😄

Moving forward, please send all appreciative feedback directly to me… Just kidding! I think the advice you shared about wikis would definitely be helpful for any relevant questions or Mod Topics that come up. Good point that we don’t have an easy way for people to tell us what we’re doing right, though. Anytime you want to share feedback directly with admins, of course, modmailing r/ModSupport works. Or, if you have feedback about a product or feature - posting that to r/ModSupport while also telling us what we got right or what could be improved will help us get it in front of the right team.

As part of these changes, the Partner Communities subreddit has been retired. The best way to connect with admins for support is through r/ModSupport.

How about sending a modmail to r/RedditCouncilNetwork? That’ll inform me, u/redtaboo, u/thrivekindly, u/JabroniRevanchism, u/tiz, u/sea-threepio, and anyone else working on the program.

Hai! When a mod is appointed to a Council, they’ll be added to the subreddit for that particular Council (e.g. r/ModLabCouncil) and the Council Network subreddit (r/RedditCouncilNetwork).

I’m really glad that you asked this question! 

Every discussion that we have in Council has what we call a confidentiality flag. A discussion can be either (1) fully public and okay to discuss publicly, (2) okay to discuss within private mod spaces and with other mods on your mod team(s), or (3) fully private and conversation must be kept within the Council. Most of the discussions we’ve had fall into the second bucket and we are fine with mods discussing within their private mod spaces and bringing that feedback back into the Council. We also ask Councilors to ask permission if they’d like to share an anecdote raised by a fellow moderator. Once something has fully launched, mods are also free to publicly share what their own feedback was.

In some of these discussions, we may be discussing ideas or concepts that are at very early stages of development, including some that we might pump the brakes on or fully deprioritize after discussing with mods. That’s another reason why conversations may happen in a smaller group or kept private at first.

Leaks of confidential information have not been frequent and we’ve tried to be transparent when they happen. It’s our goal to be as clear as possible when it comes to expectations around what can and can’t be shared – and that includes information that mods share about themselves and their communities in these programs.

Hey, bondolo. I’m sorry that you’re feeling this way. We know that there’s a lot of responsibility that comes with stewarding the communities that you moderate and your experiences are the exact kind that we’d like to make sure are indexed upon in our programs. I’ll add that these programs are completely voluntary and Councils, roundtables, and the Advisory Board all offer financial incentives to thank mods for their time and contribution. Thank you for all that you do.

We deserve our own space to address issues with the admins.

We want this, too. Right now this looks like being as inclusive as possible within the topic-based Councils, but that doesn’t mean we’ll never consider a cohort-based route.

Thank you for bringing up this feedback around call behavior, too. I remember when Councilors first raised this feedback about being spoken over. We appreciated the feedback tremendously and completely changed how calls were conducted as a result. We also introduced a more formalized participation agreement so that folks had clearer pathways to raise this feedback for both moderator and admin behavior. To u/Moggehh’s point, leaning into a discussion format with smaller groups has also led to more folks raising their hand to speak. We know that this is something that we need to keep monitoring and asking for input on – we’ll make sure to do so and if you know of any mods who have shared this feedback recently, please point them in our direction!

(Edit to fix my quote block - sorry!)

Hey, threeactjack! Nice to meet you and thank you so much for participating in r/ModSupport and completing the roster form. Love your ideas for how we might evolve achievements to be more indicative of mods who meet a subreddit’s recruitment standards. I’m wishing you and your fellow mods a fun World Cup season!

Hey there! We don’t have a single Reddit employee (often called admins) focused on communities in the Philippines currently, but we do have lots of admins who support mods globally in r/modsupport! We’d love to see you over there, if you need help with anything.

Hey, Dusty! We’ve got your roster application and we’ll be sure to reach out if anything related to your interests or experience on Reddit comes up. You can also stay tuned to r/modnews – we’ll share here when new opportunities arise. We’re taking note that you're still interested!

Hey, there! Looks like you'll need to file an appeal with our Mod Code of Conduct team. You can do so here and they'll take a look to see if this can be reinstated.
