View submission: Friendly reminder to sub owners seeking mods

View parent comment

A lot of our mods do come from the sub's community. The few mods that come from the community do tend to stick around longer and be committed (although some do not). However, because of the nature of the sub, most people from the community don't want to be staff because they enjoy playing the game (especially if they have been around for a while and have accumulated a lot of points, which they would lose for the time that they are a mod).

I don't see an obvious way of running the sub in any other way, unless I myself were to take on doing all of the time consuming tasks (which got difficult for me to do when the sub was much much smaller). We do have a hard time retaining mods as people often forget to do their responsibilities and we usually search for new mods every month or two. There are just many time-consuming parts of the job and that's kind of unavoidable. There is no removing posts, enforcing rules, etc. to be done.

maybe what you need is to figure out a way that a bot can do some of this
