Thanks for being such a great bunch of coffee geeks, starters and intermediates! In order to be a good netizen and to keep this community alive, there is room for a few (1-2) moderators here.

    Do you mind me asking which communities you had previously moderated? Feel free to message if you don’t want to answer publicly.

      No it’s fine.

      I started (and still run) /r/catishelping which is basically just another cat sub, for pictures of cats in suitcases, cats on keyboards, cats just generally, y’know “helping” their humans do human things.

      And I inherited /r/youthrights, which is a political sub for discussing the empowerment and liberation of young people.
      I hadn’t ever intended to own the place; I volunteered because they needed some backup and it’s a cause I’ve felt strongly for since I was a young person myself, but then the old owner picked a fight with the admins and got himself banned and, well, I was the only one left. I refuse to step down now because a lot of discussion still goes on there and I want to keep the lights on for people, but I do have my eye on somebody to succeed me if I ever decide to bail on Reddit entirely.

        Well, I think we should add you. I just want to wait to hear from @Martijn before doing it. I had something unexpected come up in my personal life literally in the past few hours and I’ll be pretty busy for a couple weeks.
