Opening mod applications!
Hello! Some of you may have seen a pinned post recently stating that the sub was "up for adoption". Well, I saw that, too, and I reached out to the mod here and asked if they needed help, and now I'm a mod here, too! Per my recommendation, we agreed that it would be helpful to have extra mods here. It's pretty quiet, but better safe than sorry! As such, I'm making this post in order to find people who are interested in moderation!
No experience necessary. If you get accepted as a mod, we'll just have you confer with us before taking any actions, at least for a time. This is a volunteer position. We're not going to ask you to spend any minimum amount of time "patrolling" the sub. You also don't get compensated. We're looking for people who want to mod here because they're passionate about the band, and want to ensure there's a safe, well-maintained community for people to discuss them!
Like I said, experience will have basically zero bearing on whether you get accepted or not, but there are a few hard requirements. If you don't meet all of them, your application will be rejected:
- You must speak fluent English. This is an English-speaking sub, and the two of us mods already on the mod team speak English, so we need to be able to communicate with each other and our users.
- Your application must not be written with AI. Use of AI shows a lack of both effort and interest.
- You need a Discord account. Our mod chat will be on a Discord server, and we'll need to be able to talk with one another.
If you meet all those requirements, please send us a modmail (not a comment) answering the following questions:
What is your Discord username?
Why are you applying for mod here?
What, if anything, do you believe needs to be changed on the subreddit?
What is your favorite song and/or album? (This one isn't required, just consider it to be a fun little piece of trivia to add!)
