TROPHY CASE


Secret Santa

Four-Year Club

If you are stuck in the spam box in r/reddit.com there is no point messaging the moderators, they are all in America asleep, Would you like to see some moderators in r/reddit.com from outside America who can clear the spam box and messages quicker?

best way is to create your own reddit http://www.reddit.com/reddits/create. Once you get the hang of moding and managing a community other reddits in need of extra mods might invite you to help them mod, but the reddit.com is only moded by admins.

I find it a bit disingenuous that you had to repost this message twice from two different accounts to try to stir up some controversy after we already discussed it with you at 3am. A lot of redditors would consider that spam.

But there are some valid questions here, so I'll try my best to address them for everyone else. While the spam filter is not perfect it works very well considering the volume of spam it filters. No one likes false positives, but reddit would be unusable if we turned it off. We have a very low error rate statistically and we usually get to people who message the mods at #reddit.com within hours. Personally I was up answering reddit mail 6 hours ago as were most of the other admins. We are sleep deprived and we work our asses off (as do many of the volunteer mods).

The r/reddit.com reddit is a special case. It's somewhat of a legacy and it is not very moderated. I'd prefer that no one submit to it, but instead submit to one of the thousands of other reddits that are topic specific and have great community moderators, but it's the biggest so people want the most eyeballs for their posts and I understand that. It is also the biggest target for spam, which is one of the reasons why admins alone moderate it.

What's the most ridiculous thing you had to do for your boss?

Because it's a more complete interview. I expect a lot of people would be disappointed that he only answered 3 questions. Maybe I'm wrong.

Same thing as a media pass. You'll just get in early and be able to avoid some of the massive lines, etc.

I just clicked on an reddit ad that took me to the /r/tothemoon reddit. Circlejerk needs an ad too! domino_stars will pay $1 toward the cost of the ad for each upvote this submission gets.

Someone make an appropriately circlejerky 300x250 image for the ad and I'll see what I can do.
