im sure once the shitposters come over this place will blow up, but of course the level of moderation here needs to be more active as well

and no worries about that mate, ive been creating the DD threads because it seemed noone else was doing it

I've gotten frustrated with the reddit mods to be honest. I've made both of you @little_niggle@lemmy.world and @Astrealix@lemmy.world mods so you guys can sticky your posts.

If these reddit mods remain inactive and unresponsive, we'll just select our own mods and proceed from there.

That makes a lot of sense, we need active mods more than experienced ones right now i would say

For what its worth I've done some discord moderating so I'm not a complete spring chicken but honestly I think as long as the mods actually do the moderating there's not necessarily a need for them to be active, and experience is better in some way. I'm never gonna be the guy pulling posts for F5ers or making actual useful shit like Billy Carpenter's analyses or papa wengz bot, but that doesn't mean that I couldn't be a good moderator (though I don't know whether I will be tbh lol)

Honestly, we don't have anywhere near enough content to require active moderation. Right now the moderators roles are pretty much cheerleaders - driving content and engagement so that this isn't some fad people do for a week and remains an active thriving community.

No but you're here though. That's what I meant

Well deserved. @little_niggle@lemmy.world has been on it with the Daily Discussion posts and I see his comments all over the place.

You just been waking up earlier than me lol

And I'm a bit of a shitposter myself but there's simply not much to post about rn lol

It's good if we can all chip in with posts to help keep the community active. I posted a few of Romano's tweets earlier on that hadn't already been posted.
