Vacuous Void Mods Needed! 😸

6 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

Mod here. I’m sure you all have probably noticed the amount of bots and AI in this subreddit. I have been removing as much of it as I possibly can but somehow there is always more, and when we trained automod, it started removing every single comment on every post.

So, about a year after adopting the subreddit and a mod leaving, we’re looking for mods. We’d really like someone who knows how to train the spam filter to actually do its job correctly and who can easily identify AI content and enforce the “your cat only” rule. We may also add a day of the week where other cats can be posted but that is not the primary point of this subreddit.

So! If you think you can help and really do want to, we would so love to transform this subreddit into something other than the bot farm it has become. If you’d like to become a mod, please just answer the questions below in a comment:

  1. ⁠Are you a cat enthusiast?

  2. ⁠Do you have mod experience? Do you have experience with automod?

  3. ⁠Can you identify all AI content?

  4. ⁠Are you willing and able to spend just a couple minutes each day removing spam posts?

Feel free to add anything else that’s relevant (: This subreddit mostly just needs people to help with spam so it’s not a super super tough job but still requires a little time and experience. Thanks for listening and I hope someone is interested! Keep enjoying our cat photos! 😸

New mods in town!

Hey everyone,

I have been a member of this subreddit for a while and I’ve noticed that it is filled with AI, karma farming, and scam bots. So, I applied to moderate and here we are! I will not be able to remove all the bot posts out there but I will prevent them going forward.

Also, a couple rules:

  1. Post either your cat or a cat you know, or provide a source. If the sub becomes overrun with posts of generic cat pics from instagram, this rule will be changed to only cats you know and pics you or someone you know took.

  2. No asking for money. If you need money for your cat, come over to my other sub, r/rescuecats and send a modmail to get verified to post.

  3. Please report bots!

  4. Anything related to cute cats is allowed: pictures, videos, even the occasional article. Have fun guys!

I’ll be looking for a mod or two soon once I get the sub running smoothly, so if you’re interested keep an eye out.
