little_niggleWatching this place grow everyday is amazing, better than reading the same rehashed news from Fabricio everyday - much less amazing
Ikr, just wish we had more memes lol
also sorry for nabbing the post for today XD
im sure once the shitposters come over this place will blow up, but of course the level of moderation here needs to be more active as well
and no worries about that mate, ive been creating the DD threads because it seemed noone else was doing it
You just been waking up earlier than me lol
And I'm a bit of a shitposter myself but there's simply not much to post about rn lol
I_am_the_grassI've gotten frustrated with the reddit mods to be honest. I've made both of you @[email protected] and @[email protected] mods so you guys can sticky your posts.
If these reddit mods remain inactive and unresponsive, we'll just select our own mods and proceed from there.
AlfonsThat makes a lot of sense, we need active mods more than experienced ones right now i would say
For what its worth I've done some discord moderating so I'm not a complete spring chicken but honestly I think as long as the mods actually do the moderating there's not necessarily a need for them to be active, and experience is better in some way. I'm never gonna be the guy pulling posts for F5ers or making actual useful shit like Billy Carpenter's analyses or papa wengz bot, but that doesn't mean that I couldn't be a good moderator (though I don't know whether I will be tbh lol)
No but you're here though. That's what I meant
Honestly, we don't have anywhere near enough content to require active moderation. Right now the moderators roles are pretty much cheerleaders - driving content and engagement so that this isn't some phad people do for a week and remains an active thriving community.
IronEagleBirdWell deserved. @[email protected] has been on it with the Daily Discussion posts and I see his comments all over the place.
FramecodeIt's good if we can all chip in with posts to help keep the community active. I posted a few of Romano's tweets earlier on that hadn't already been posted.
It's pretty insane how fast we grew. I tried Lemmy last year and just went back because there was no daily content.
I'm glad users really took to it. I'm enjoying the smaller size of the community too before we get even larger.
