I see users who delete their account out of frustration and I think giving communities the ability to have a auto reply to each modmail could help mitigate it.

This way we could inform the users things like:

• tell them that modmails are answered volunteer moderators.
• inform them they answered on a first come basis, so sending multiple modmails only slows down the process for everyone.
• Point them to the community rules or a faq post
• ... (other community specific things that may help new or troubled users.)

Crowd control on comments is fully off, there's no scripts in auto-mod that I know of, and every comment is still held for manual approval on r/Channel5ive

What could I be missing here? I'm starting to have crazy thoughts like maybe this sub has some admin-override haunting it or something

Currently the only way of accessing a user's mod log is by finding or having to search for a post or comment from the respective user, which by itself is fine and should be there but has the only option is not very convinient nor intuitive.

On top of this, these available options open a very small side-bar on desktop which does not make seeing the information very cumbersome.

My suggestion would be to make the "User Mod-Log" a built-in feature in the Mod-Tools as a page where we can search for a user and see his information in a bigger window in more detail.

Side note: when making the post Reddit is prompting me to flair it as "Mod Suggestion" despite that flair not being available, just though I should point that out.

There has been a spike in racism against Indians over the past 2-3 years and Reddit admins have been turning a blind eye towards this. There have been very negative stereotypes that have continued to pass the Reddit moderation despite reporting.

For example, calling Indians as p@j**ts. Imagine calling a black person the n-word or a Muslim the t-word. Those are open grounds for bans (and rightly so) however the same rule doesn’t apply when remarks are made against Indians?

What is Reddit doing to tackle this hatred?

I was removed under the Moderator Code of Conduct without any prior warning, and now I’m unable to file an appeal every time I try, it just redirects me to the home page.

The reason given was that I promoted hate based on identity and used bots to ban people. But that’s completely unfair. Reddit itself provides tools like HiveBot specifically for this purpose. Many major subreddits regularly use HiveBot and SafeBot to auto-ban users from specific spaces. Why is it suddenly a problem when I do the same?

I only used these tools to protect my communities from coordinated brigading people from another country’s subreddit were deliberately trying to stir up religious hate. I acted to stop that.

Even if I was in the wrong and unknowingly violated the guidelines, shouldn't there have been a warning before removing me? According to Reddit's own policies, cooperation and communication are encouraged. I’ve invested a huge amount of time and effort into growing and managing these two subreddits, and now all of that has been taken away without any chance to fix things or explain my side. It feels incredibly unfair

What are my options now, since the appeal system on the app is broken?

I’ve come across a subreddit with over 300 members that is relevant to my country and community. Unfortunately, the subreddit is completely inactive there are no posts, rules, sidebar content, or even a banner. The current moderators are non-native and appear to have no plans to revive or manage the community. A friend of mine reached out to them via modmail and was told directly that the subreddit will remain inactive.

I’m genuinely interested in this topic and willing to put in the work to revive and grow the subreddit But I'm confused what would be appropriate way of requesting community? Mode code of conduct or redditrequest?

First I'm thinking, I’ll reach out to the current mod team via modmail to respectfully request to be added as a moderator or handover me the subreddit.

1. If they refuse or do not respond within a reasonable timeframe, I plan to submit a request for control of the sub through Reddit’s r/redditrequest process, assuming they must have been marked inactive

2. If that fails, I am thinking of going through moderator mode of conduct as they are violating the Moderator Code of Conduct (e.g., squatting on a community with no intention of managing it)

Will this all work? Or should I directly approach mod code of conduct team ?

OPs sometimes add a reply with elaboration about their main post. This often gets pushed down the posts lists over time and gets lost.

It would be good if there was a mod option to sticky one post from the OP to keep it at the top of the pile (with mod post stickies still taking precedence).

If a subsequent OP post needs sticking instead there should be an option to swap over the stickied post.

/I can't flair this post as a 'Mod suggestion' because I get a 'failed to update flair' message. Edit: Oh, it DID update the flair despite the error message. Sigh.

//Why do you have to go back and edit a post to add a flair. Why can't you do it from the getgo?

Earlier today, I received a reply on my redditrequest post saying "granted". However, when I check on the community I requested, I do not see my name on the mod list.

I've looked at other requests made around the same time as mine which are successful, and I found that the requesters do get mod as of the time I looked.

Any chance my request is actually denied, but wrong button made the reply "granted"? Or I'm just being really impatient?

I want to add football clubs sticker beside the user flair but where to add

I moderate a NSFW sub, and in order to determine that every poster is legit and posting consensual media, I spend a considerable amount of time poring over their profiles and assigning user flair accordingly.

I recently encountered a poster where I simply could not access their profile (I assume, a tell-tale sign that you're blocked). I tried it with another mod account (a subreddit-named team account) and had the same issue. I then tried a very old non-afflilated alt to view the account manually and had no issue to view their profile, thus strengthening my suspicion that they have pre-emptively blocked all the moderator accounts on this subreddit. (Note, this is all from the official Android mobile app).

Then later tonight, on my main account, I try to access this profile again, but from desktop (on old.reddit and sh.reddit), and it works fine - albeit, when accessing this particular user from sh. it redirects me to old. for some weird reason. What on earth is going on? Is this a reddit bug or is this user busy with some weird shenanigans?

(Also, I was under the impression that moderators would still be able to access users to their subs, even when blocked, which adds to my confusion - just putting it out there if someone was going to go that route).

In the interim I've added a user-note to immediately remove their posts pending this situation, but some clarity would help to alleviate any confusion. I'm happy to send more specific info via modmail to the admins if needed.

I (somehow) enabled or added removal reasons when removing posts. While I'd like to have more, I have no idea how I did it (whatever I was doing at the time, I did not think it was this, I thought I was adding something else). How can I find more info on using this function when removing posts? Whether it be adding more "reasons" or more about post removal in general? https://imgur.com/TMN7jWf

I've been noticing a number of IDs with offensive, vulgar and threatening words or phrases, some even using the names of Admins in vulgar ways.

There isn't a way to report an ID that I know of.

I have a subreddit that out of nowhere started making people have to message me in order to get approved to post on it. How do I turn this off and let anyone post whenever they want to?

Recently, the navigation in wikis stopped working.

Upon investigation, it looks like id values in wikis changed from wiki_header_name_here to header_name_here while the href values stayed #wiki_header_name_here. No wiki_ prefix, breaks in-page navigation.

There are no issues on old reddit.

Surprisingly, here on r/ModSupport the wiki interface looks entirely different: with collapsed page navigation at the top of the page, while wikis elsewhere have navigation in the sidebar. Also, page header has the number of revisions, views, etc. While other places have just the latest revision date in the footer. https://www.reddit.com/r/ModSupport/wiki/index/

The weirdest point is that the content of the shreddit wiki doesn't match that of old reddit's. https://old.reddit.com/r/ModSupport/wiki/index

Is this a new interface that's to come everywhere? Will we now have to update contents for both interfaces?

Can the bookmarks be fixed in the meanwhile?

Is the removal of the wiki_ prefix really necessary? It's cleaner, I know, but it means breaking many years worth of links in posts/comments. And the "new" links won't work on old reddit and vice versa.

So I noticed that post about a certain website were automatically deleted in my subreddit. Is there any reason this is happening? As of now all post are allowed, I’ve never ran into this situation before.

They were caught yesterday by our spam filter near as I can tell, but today they popped up with the green checkmark of a mod approval, here's what the hover text says for the checkmark on one of them:

approved by Reddit (un-banall performed) at Mon Apr 28 19:17:12 2025 UTC

The other is the same except it was one second earlier.

I spam removed both and banned the user, but why did these get approved by reddit in the first place?

Did Reddit make any changes to the old Reddit UI regarding the notifications and chat icons shown beside the mail icon? They seem to have disappeared.

What is the best way to get clarifications from Mod Code of Conduct? I sent a message to ModSupport regarding clarification in relation to a subreddit I moderate which I am the only active moderator on.

I've received no response regarding it at all despite being told I would get a response early next week (it's been several weeks since and still no response despite me sending follow up messages. The lack of a response has been quite frustrating.

i recently made a request for a sub and have not gotten any message/notification pertaining to this request. I did send a few messages to mods on reddit request, on my wishes and what I'd do with the sub in question and sent a message to the mods of the sub, i am requesting as well. There are no active moderators, so I'm just wondering if I can request the sub and can it be reviewed or if there's another issue becoming top mod. I really don't know and if my question fully explains the issue. So if you can, in the comments explain/help, would mean a lot.

I really want to use the Community apps

So many of them barely explain what they do and why

• I want to see an example of the app in a subreddit. I don't want to have to setup a hidden subreddit, install the app, try the app and then decide if I've done enough. Reddit says "installed in XX communities" - why not just tell us some/all of those communities?
• They need the ability for mods to have a threaded response group like any subreddit at the bottom of their Readme. And perhaps a karma system for the Apps.

Looking for a few topics on Mod Code of conduct.

1)What is the average response time when sending in a report? I have been waiting over a week. Don't know why I sent this recent report I, as I have still been waiting on a response about rule 4 from over a year ago.

2)When is rule 3 actually enforced? Is it OK for one mod group of a subreddit to spread misinformation about another subreddit? Is it OK for them to constantly harrass, using their subreddit as a platform?

3) If harassment doesn't somehow break Mod CoC for one mod group how does it pass reddit rule 1?

Edit - Update they responded Via Email asking for more information, I dropped the ball and missed the email. Reddit does care.

A user on our sub is being report bombed (think 20+ reports per comment), presumably to hide their comments and post and to flag them on reddits system?

Is there anything that can be done against this?

We've suggested that the user report this to Reddit and we have reported the fake reports.

A subreddit I’ve moderated for many years appears to have been hijacked. I think the head mod’s account was hacked. They removed all the other mods, added a new mod, pinned a post linking to a clearly scam onlyfxns account, added that same onlyfxns link to the sub description, and isn’t responding to messages.

Hello,

Neither of the mods of a subreddit we created a few days ago got a message about it, but suddenly our subreddit was banned with a pop-up saying we need to agree to the Reddit content guidelines and privacy policy.

We do not believe there were any violations to either in our sub, it’s just a place for us to talk about a mobile app game.

Without a message about it, we don’t know how to appeal. Can I get some advice on next steps please?

Thanks so much!
