I didn’t really intend to get into modding 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?

    Where’s the option to change who is a mod of a community? What if I’m more interested in letting others moderate something and want to resign?

      Or just the option to add additional mods

    I’m totally new to being a mod anywhere so take my comment with a grain of salt. But it would be nice to have tools for communities with little or no NSFW content allowed. Perhaps something that just matches images and links to other posts and flags when they are NSFW elsewhere? I seem to recall there were some efficient algorithms and implementations for matching similar images, if it helps I can dig those up and link them.
