Hi all,

I’m an admin on lemmy.blahaj.zone, /196’s home instance. I’m not a member of /196, and I’m not familiar with its history. However, I’m seeing a LOT of reports coming through that aren’t being actioned by community mods.

It looks like the original mod has deleted their account, and the remaining mod hasn’t been active since their initial post 2 days ago.

What I’m hoping to see is that @threegnomes logs back in, appoints some mods and gets things under control.

But should that not happen, I’m going to need to step in and appoint some mods myself

Either way, if you’re interested in being a mod, please reply below. I (and hopefully @threegnomes) will look at everyone that gets lots of community support (via upvotes or replies) and put some more mods in.

Lots of upvotes doesn’t mean you automatically get the job. I reserve the right to veto candidates that I think are going to create more work rather than reduce it.

    Honestly, most of the reports that have come through don’t even require action as far as I can tell. The biggest issue is, as the instance admin, I don’t want to be dealing with reports for a community and making those calls, when many of them aren’t breaking instance rules.

    As long as the blahaj lemmy instance rules are followed, I don’t care how the community is moderated, as long as it is :)

      Absolutely, 100% fair. Eventually it’ll get to be too much for you to handle even if you wanted to.

      I’m going to have to catch up on all the different instances’ rules.
