View submission: Announcing Remove as a Subreddit

View parent comment

Are there plans for anonymous mod team comments.

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.

Wouldn't it have been simpler to make the post/comment via our own accounts, but hide the user attributes from non-mods? That way it would still be our own post/comment that we could edit, delete, etc. And it would be immediately obvious to other mods who made the comment. Similar to how we can hide out usernames in modmail, but other mods see it.
