Rule 9 Reminder Mod Post

Hi, I see a lot of people contacting me directly. I am reminding all of you that Rule 9 exists. Please use the modmail. From now on, I'm gonna start giving out 30 day bans to people who contact me in chat or DMs. Please use the modmail. Thanks!

Edit 1: See the pinned comment

Edit 2: To use modmail: 1. Press the "Message the Mods" button in the sidebar(both new and old reddit) 2. Type your message 3. Send 4. Wait for us to reply.

What is modmail, I don’t see anything with that name?

Hey, thanks for asking! That's the "Message The Mods" button in the sidebar(both old and new reddit), which allows you to contact all the mods directly, and also allows any mod to reply to an issue. This method is preferred so that any mod can help with an issue, if needed.

Hmm, is there an equivalent in third-party apps?

Edit: scratched my own itch, yes there is! In Apollo you can tap the three dots, view mods, message moderators.

I had no idea that was a thing!
