I didn’t really intend to get into moderating communities here, much like I imagine many others didn’t, but since I’m doing so, I can’t help noticing the mod tools are pretty basic.
Some improvements I think I’d like would probably be:
- View modlog by community, so when you click the modlog at the bottom of a community’s sidebar, it filters down to that community.
- An option to review a moderated post’s contents without having to go to the modlog. This would be really useful in moderation teams to see why your teammates removed/moderated a post/comment.
- A separate suspend option for misconduct that’s not outright banworthy. I’ve seen some bans in modlog that suggest it may be used like suspending, but that’s not really intuitive imo.
- Multiple post/comment selection. Right now this is pretty low priority, but if ever waves of spam come up, this would be pretty critical to clearing out spam.
These are just a few that come to mind. What are some others you’ve had occur to you?
confession: i have no idea how to ban an account from a group. still looking… ; ; oh, found it. got one I think, skyler spamming same crap. removed post and user. also blocked them. eh we’ll see. I’m not on this instance all the time and never spent much time on reddit. anyone interested in modding !cat ? w/e don’t even have a cat.
I wasn’t spamming. I reported someone that was spamming my post. @andobando was the one spamming my post.

edit: I guess since m3t00 blocked me he won’t see my reply. Could anyone reach out to him for me?
I don’t want to be blocked from !cat.
drafted you, sorry about that. confusing mod tools. not that I know anything about modding besides some 30 day timeouts for cussing
No worries. I’m just glad it got resolved.
This is kind of worked out as a perfect example for why the mod tools need improving.
