View submission: Important updates from the mod front.

Can this get crossposted to r/Modsupport, perhaps with a **gentle** suggestion to come over here and get subscribed so Moderators don't miss out on things?

The amount of "*Hey! Why did my subreddit get changed to a bunch of random letters and numbers?*" posts that still crop up, well... it couldn't hurt?

It would be great to get back to the roots of /r/ModSupport too.

Modhelp used to be for the basic questions we see constantly like "how do I add mods" and "why do I get ban messages sent to me" but now they all end up in ModSupport too.

IIRC, ModSupport was formed out of a fairly large scale protest by mods a few years ago to have a place for easy communication with admins, now it's used as an alternative to Google or the mod documentation

Thanks for this feedback. We’ve been discussing ways to improve and broaden our conversations with moderators, knowing not every one of them subscribes to r/modsupport or r/modnews. We’ll be promoting this post utilizing our announcement banner, and targeting it specifically to moderators. This will hopefully help spread the word, and get more mods to subscribe to this community (interesting fact: there are 4x the amount of subscribers to r/modnews than r/modsupport).

Random numbers? What’s that about?
