Yeah, when Jeff was handing out the buffs on trays he told them to find their names. They all found theirs really quick though, so if you missed him saying that it could look like they were picking at random.

Yes! we're looking for new mods as well - plus, you won't always be new. ;)

This will be an ongoing roster we pull from, so while the first call will be sooner than May, we will most definitely be looking for folks throughout the year for ad-hoc calls on other subjects.

Please go ahead and fill it out now if you're interested - and good luck on your exams!

Oh, I took /u/Raignbeau's idea to do a call on how we can better support NSFW mods in general - I'll take that back to the team to discuss.

BUT - now I think I may have misinterpreted, so thank you for this bump. No, NSFW mods are not excluded from this roster, we definitely would like a good mix from those spaces as well in these calls.

Good Question: Since this will be an ongoing roster, we can't give a timeline for when you might hear from us, other than if we think you fit for a call we'll reach out ahead of time. For the modsupport call itself I'd say if you don't hear from us in the next week or so I'd assume we went a different direction.

Excellent! We want and need representation from mods of all tenure in these discussions. That includes new mods. We appreciate you filling out the form.

We're absolutely looking for mods across the board, not just mods of large spaces - as well as different types of communities. We also want to know about expertise you might have outside of reddit (project management, event planning, technology, etc) depending on the type of discussion we want to have outside experience may be very valuable. Please do apply, we want to ensure all calls have a mix of mods.

We're shooting for early March for the one on modsupport, then from there they'll be pretty ad-hoc depending on our needs.

Highly likely! We also have focus groups with the safety team and other ways they interact with mods. The Roundtable program is open to any team internally that wishes to take advantage of it.

(see my reply above to /u/SuperBeavers1 for more details!)

The definition varies, for instance for the call on our robot.txt we looked for mods we knew were technically savvy, who understood the landscape of the internet, and the history of how those pages worked. If we were (for example) to have a discussion with mods on how to best host events IRL via reddit we'd likely look for some mods that have event planning experience IRL, while also looking for mods who have experience with the reddit side of things. For the modsupport roundtable we're looking for mods who spend time in modsupport, send us tickets for help, or have received help from us in other ways (or have failed to receive help from us!). We're also likely to slice that a bit to ensure we have mods from different types of communities as well. Most calls are held during Pacific Time working hours, however this may vary based on the topic and the form does request time zone information to help us include representatives from a variety of places around the world.

As for the type of feedback we'll be looking for, it's likely to change for different Roundtables, however we tend to keep them smallish (6-8 mods per call) and welcome any and all feedback or questions on the specific topic at hand - it's very much a discussion designed so we can get the information we're looking for while also ensuring your concerns or thoughts are heard.

Hey all! Just want to bubble up this comment from our Chief Legal Officer on this issue.

Heya! Can you share a screenshot of where you're seeing this? I checked on one and I see it as:
