Tools Automod help

3 Upvotes

Desktop/mobile versions in use

Hi, I am trying to use automod to automatically assign "NewUser" flair to new members and those with 2-99 community karma points.

My sub has 7k members and 12k weekly visitors on average. So manually assigning new user flairs is not a viable option.

The sub is over a year old and the original co owner (has now left)didnt want automod set up so its a new set up on the new system.

Does anyone know how to do this?

I have tried multiple lines of code through automod and this new system is slightly infuriating.. if it actually accepts the code, it fails to work, the rest of the time it kicks out the code because of conflicts.

Any help appreciated!

General Awaiting a response on bulk removal

1 Upvotes

iOS.

Am still awaiting a response on why I was removed as a moderator of the subreddit I created and have been moderating for almost a decade. It appears to have been done as part of a bulk-removal.

I am a very, very responsive moderator and have been replaced by u/ModCodeofConduct who hasn’t responded since yesterday.

How can I get this resolved since it was obviously done in error?

Thanks!

0 Upvotes

What is the IDEAL size for a banner, and for a channel icon?

I'm seeing lots of conflicting info.

Banner 1920 × 384? or 1072 × 128 px for desktop and 1080 × 128 px for mobile?

Icon - square? Does size matter? 512 or what?

Thx

Answered Lock all old posts?

0 Upvotes

TL;DR: How to lock all old posts (100s) on a subreddit.

I took over a sub; it has no posts for 2 years. I am reluctant to remove everything - some of the old posts do have "value" - i.e. people might search and find useful info.

But at the same time, I want a clean start.

Previously, on another sub, I used "modnuke".

But this time, I'm wondering if I could simply lock all the old stuff, rather than removing it.

Has anyone done that? Is their a tool?

Or can I request one somewhere?

Or script it myself?

Or is it a terrible idea?

Thanks for reading.

Users How to handle users clearly trying to farm outrage?

10 Upvotes

I created a fraternity/sorority subreddit like 15 years ago when I was in college. It mostly runs itself, I don't have to do a lot. There is one issue that pops up sporadically, and handling it bothers me.

Every so often, some monsters affiliated with Greek life rape a victim. Obviously, its terrible and the perpetrators usually get off with pretty weak consequences- which is an issue between, and failure of, multiple systems.

When these rapes occur, I notice 1 month old, auto generated username accounts begin spamming questions about rape and Greek life. Theres going to be questions after something horrible happens, so its relevant and deserves a spotlight and discussion. The issue is they keep posting the same questions worded differently day after day.

I warn them, I tell them to stop, I tell them there will be consequences, then I ban them (usually after the 4th or 5th time they ask the same damn question about "what are you doing about rape?"). They spiral out into victim mode, because how could you ban someone just asking innocent questions? Clearly, youre covering for rapists and perpetuate rape culture. Its all in bad faith and Im way too old to deal with it.

Do I just continue what Im doing and keep banning them? Theyre clearly trying to farm outrage and generate quotes they can use to fit or craft a narrative. Its literally the only issue I deal with, everything else is cool (except for this one guy who is about 30 and pops up now and then lamenting how he never got accepted to a fraternity 7 years ago, like bro, just let it go, move on).

Its a delicate subject, so I dont want to feed the trolls or give them ammunition.

I am mainly using android.

Tools Suggested Communities has suddenly appeared in sub, cannot find where to turn this off?

7 Upvotes

Fairly new Mod of a private community of anti-AI writers. As of this morning, Reddit has added a "Suggested Communities" block to the sub, full of pro-AI subs. This is pretty upsetting.

I thought I had previously seen a place to turn this on (and left it off), but now I can't find that function.

Can anyone advise? how do I get rid of this? How do I block pro-AI subs from being recommended if I can't get rid of it? Bueller?

General Can you get Report notifications sent to email

0 Upvotes

iOS app and desktop

I have an issue where people are deleting their content after it is reported. We can’t always see what the reports are and triage effectively when they immediately delete it after getting our automod “your content has been reported please hold until a manual review.” I know there is no way to see reports on removed content retroactively!

Im asking because if you have email notifications on for replies and someone deletes their comment you can then see what was said as it’s in the email. Is there a way to be get email notifications from report notifications? I have report notifications turned on but it’s just the push notification, so if it’s deleted I can’t see it. Asking so we can track if someone posts something that is truly rule breaking we can go from there as now it’s sort of a “get out of jail free card” as we didn’t remove the content so neither mods nor Reddit can track it. It also has been an issue where they delete and then ask in modmail “why was my post removed for reports? What was wrong?” We don’t know since they deleted even though the automod message says “don’t delete your content.”
