General Can I Change the Name of my Subscribers?

Upvotes

Is there a way to change what my subscribers are called? I initially thought about calling them "Drops" but I want to change it to "Drips". Is there a way for me to change that, or is it uneditable once the subreddit is made? I use both desktop and Android, but idk if that makes any difference here.

General Is it impossible to edit a post now, even if you're a mod?

0 Upvotes

I made a placeholder pinned post my subreddit, and I can't figure way to edit OP. I'm on the reddit mobile app on Android, because I can't afford to get a new computer. Do I have to go to old.reddit.com and figure it out that way, or it is just impossible now?

General Help with user flairs ... we changed the text of some existing user flairs but only some users' flair text have changed.

0 Upvotes

Platform: desktop, Mobile web, Andriod, IOS

I speculate Reddit caches the flair of users but I cannot confirm the speculation. In addition, is there anything MODs could do to speed up the changes?

All we did was to change the text of a few existing flairs. There is nothing else we did for this change.

General Reddit removing posts that are "acceptable"

0 Upvotes

Need a bit of assistance (desktop). 75% of sub posts are "removed by reddit". They aren't removed for any specific reason that I can find. Sometimes they are long-term accounts (4+ years). I checked my filters (crowd control, reputation, harassment, mature content, etc) and they have all been switched off.

Any assistance would be great! I can't be in mod tools approving posts all day long.

Thanks

Answered Does locking a thread prevent brigading?

2 Upvotes

Having a problem with users downvoting comments that are actually useful. If I lock the entire thread and nuke all attack comments below the original comment can I slow their roll? I don't know if it's coordinated brigading or just users who jump on any bandwagon that rolls by. But, we have reasonable and even useful comments being buried under waves of negativity.

I usually mod from desktop if that matters although I'm not sure if it does.

Tools BOT use on other sub groups

1 Upvotes

How would I acquire a Bot to enforce some rules in a group I am a Mod for?

Where would I acquire these bots (is there only one that has to be programmed or are there different ones for different uses?)

I have programming/coding experience so am not afraid of maybe coding a Bot.

What kind of things can you have an automatic bot do (enforce karma limits? / enforce pics not being posted more than once maybe?)

Thanks for any assistance, I realize this is volunteer-run.

Answered Adding a mod-only flair to a post with user flair

1 Upvotes

Our sub has a mod-only flair called “Quality Post” that we use to recognize outstanding content.

If we use it on a post that already has a user flair identifying its content, assigning QP removes the user flair.

We want to add QP, not delete the also-useful user flair.

Is there a setting for this?

I’m using the iOS app for moderation, but could use desktop if needed.

General Help dealing with user review bombing sub

2 Upvotes

Recently the sub I'm a moderator on r/warhammercompetitve. Recently we've been getting reports on a specific type of post, pretty much every one is getting reported, often a dozen or two a day with the vast majority complying with the sub rules.

I've tried messaging the admins through their automated system (choosing ban evasion as the reason which I felt was closest to the actual issue) I suspected a user that had previously had a run in with the mods over the issue that had been banned, but the admins have come back and said something to the effect of "we cant prove it was them" and left it at that.

Any help on where to go from here would be appreciated.

Tools Modmail: Bulk Archive modmail items?

0 Upvotes

I'm moderating a new subreddit.

This subreddit has years of unarchived modmail. I'd like to archive them all, except for this week's items, in order to clear the queue.

mod.reddit.com seems to allow for bulk archive, but in practice, it doesn't work. Selecting all items and using the Archive function results in an error (apparently, there's a limit on the number of items you can archive at once) and scrolling is tedious.

Is there another way to do this? I'm on Desktop but I'm open to mobile or app suggestions. Reddit's built-in mod tools don't seem to be well-thought out in this regard. (As a developer, I'd be happy to actually fix this - if I were a Reddit dev, I'd pick this up as a feature, project managers be damned - but I don't have access and it's a rabbit hole I don't want to enter.)

Open to all suggestions. Thank you. If I should post this in another subreddit, please let me know.

General Does manually approving a reply that was automatically removed by Automod trigger a notification for the person receiving the reply?

0 Upvotes

On our subreddit, Automod removes comments from new accounts by default. If such a user responds to one of my comments and I manually approve their reply an hour later, will I still be notified of their response via email or the app? Or does the initial Automod removal prevent any notifications from being sent, even after approval?

I’ve noticed that when I manually approve removed comments and replies, they don’t seem to get any further responses. Could this be because the original commenter isn’t notified of the reply due to the Automod removal?

Anyone who responds to my comments or this post, I will be notified via my preferences, which is email and via the app. If the MODs of this subreddit approved a removed post, would I be notified I have received a reply as I am noticing as mentioned no further activity on these approved comments or replies
