What we’re looking for–

Being a news community, moderating here is essential. Moderation of news preferably requires leaving personal biases aside and allowing otherwise relevant content to stay up even if you disagree with it. Also, posting from less biased sources is always preferred.

    How many communities do you own, Hurts? Saw several calls for moderators from you. :).

      Quite a few (part of the reason I need moderators to join). Most of them don’t have much content, and I generally snagged a bunch to help seed them and get them off the ground. I’ve passed ownership of a couple off already though.

        Yeah, I get you. I started four myself and stopped because that’s the most I could reasonably handle. I’m actually thinking of adding mods to one of the ones that is getting pretty busy.

          Yeah, if they were all super active communities that I moderate it’d be too much, but most of them have little to no content without me seeding them. I’ve mostly added mods or am now looking for mods in the ones that actually gained some steam, but still I don’t think the load is unreasonable (yet)

            I’ve triple checked, but I have gotten zero reports in any of the communities I mod. What about you?

              I’ve received a good number of reports. I arrived here fairly early and took to seeding some communities, one of which was c/conservative (I’m not a MAGA loving neo-nazi, I’m actually somewhere centrist which I feel makes me a pretty decent choice to moderate political/news communities as I don’t have an inherent bias feeling strongly one way or the other, I’ve also passed off ownership of that community already). But anyway, that community received a ton of reports.

              All other communities have received about 0. I had I think 1 report on a meme in a meme community last week.
