It's time to finally recruit new moderators to our community - Lemmy.World

well it’s finally time to hire more moderators for our community, click here to apply [https://forms.gle/KyCsWTxJdXpcaZ637]

I guess you finally kicked Jordan?
Not yet because I’m waiting for a response from him
I’d be interested in being a moderator. What’s it entail?
Lots of work, long hours, no pay and truckloads of abuse from passionate, bigoted arse wipes.
You had me at bigoted arse wipes
I just want the bitching to be stomped out and legit discussion to be valued. Wanna bitch? Call ya mom.

You get access to a queue of reported posts and comments, decide how to deal with each one, and mark them resolved.

You also have the ability to feature posts in the community, lock them from getting comments, and ban users temporarily or permanently.

Thank you. If no one else wants to be a mod I will do it. I only say this because I’m a single dad and don’t have much time to devote to this except in the evenings.

There are multiple people modding so it’s not that bad. There are occasional flame wars where you’ll log in and see:

“Mod Queue (30)” and go “Oh, holy hell, what happened here??!?” but that’s pretty rare. Generally it’s a new troll account trying to stir up trouble.

Got it. Yea, I’ll be a mod for sure.
Coolio! Fill out the app up there! ^
Uh.
Wait a second… they recruit children? The hell.

Surely thats to filter out underage people, right?

Right?

13 year old moderators in-coming 🤣
Here we thought the election would be the high water mark! ;)
nobody needs mods
Who is this nobody?
Interesting fella, the mods should quit what they’re doing and go look for him.
I would like to apply
can we say death to america yet?
If not you need new mods
No, your violating the advocating violence rule. We do not want anyone to advocate violence, and that line is always linked to terrorists.
I get the first part. (even if it’s more a theoretical battle cry against a regime and you can’t kill an abstract concept which a country is)
But linking resistance to the biggest terror state on the planet by far to terrorism is the most american Orwellian spin possible.
Free speech is much more important than far-fetched insinuations. Especially now, since it’s almost gone and nearly every unwanted opinion is in some way banned, removed, etc… on most media.
A dangerous path.
