View submission: Announcing Remove as a Subreddit
Are there plans for anonymous mod team comments. Since sometimes moderators have to make unpopular announcements and it would be healthier to have the comment made by the joint sub account than any singular mod who may then receive multiple uncivil PMs.
Is there also anything stopping moderators removing a post, editing the removal reason to say anything we want and then re-approving the post to achieve the same outcome?
I think I speak for most mods that having mod team posts and comments everyone can edit would be incredibly helpful.
EDIT: Also off topic but the ability to run vote based contests on reddit is a desperately needed feature. I've gone round multiple different subs to see how other subs run contests and all are inefficient and make it painful for the users to engage with.
Something that allows mods to post multiple images and allows users to vote for different images would be incredible.

Absolutely. Eventually we want mod teams to be able to post and comment as their mod team for the very reasons you called out.
“Is there also anything stopping moderators removing a post, editing the removal reason to say anything we want and then re-approving the post to achieve the same outcome?”
Currently this is not doable. We need to think through edit tracking before we can begin to think about making this a possibility.
Thanks for the suggestion re: vote based suggestions! We’re not the team that works on that sort of thing, but we’ll make sure they see this comment.
