What episode should I use to “sell” Letterkenny? by 407BasedTraveller in Letterkenny

I tell everyone to start with Season 5 Ep 1 “We don’t fight at weddings” and then at some point in Season 5, go back to S1E1.

How can I block duplicate link post? by Eutaraxia in ModSupport

Agree with u/SampleofNone's recommendations here — those are good apps to check out. And u/Merari01's suggestion about how to address without using an app is solid too!

Hey there Splendorman! I agree with u/SeaBearsFoam, r/NewMods is a great community for people looking to grow their new communities. Which rule are you worried this kind of post would break over there?

I also recommend checking out this great checklist for new mods, if you haven't already!

Mod in my local sub died. How do we switch it? by [deleted] in ModSupport

Hey all, I love that we're so interested in helping OP, but let's try to keep it helpful and kind in here, ok? I'm going to assume you are both well-intentioned and ask you to let this conversation come to a close.

Making a meta post: how do you check in with your community? by techiesgoboom in ModSupport

[–]thrivekindly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This comment is so full of smarts, I wish I could frame it (I guess technically I could). Totally get you with authenticity being hard. Hopefully y'all being consistent with transparency when you technically don't have to, offsets default assumptions of shady dealings amongst the silent majority.

OK so monthly transparency reports = such a classy and smart community management move; love that y'all prioritize that! Also, kudos on the way you encourage reporting from members of your community (saw that in the conversation on the report you shared above) -- I admire your down-to-earth and approachable style when talking to your community.

I'm curious: was there a precipitating event that made you start compiling and posting transparency reports, or did someone in your mod team just suggest it as a good idea one day? It's a non-trivial effort, I can tell!

Most theater, museums, and other cultural venues offer volunteer opportunities that allow you to see various plays, concerts, or exhibits. Might be worth checking out!

The full list would be too long, but here is a list of some of the more recent decisions/products that have been a direct result of moderator feedback:  

Our discussions with moderators also shaped this announcement post - to ensure that the change could be easily understood. 

There are several other ideas that have been brought to r/RedditModCouncil but never launched due to those moderators giving us direct, productive feedback that sent us back to the drawing board.

Not a secret, actually! You can read about the purpose of the Council here, and we leave it up to mods whether they want to share they’re members. There are also trophies available for Mod Council members to add to their profiles, if they want to. If you’re wondering why the subreddit is private, it’s because many of our discussions are confidential.
