Morning, new mod here 😁

Care to give any advise?

Hi there, warm greetings. Help me out to express people’s opinion​.

We're here to share our thoughtful opinions, learn about others.

The automod edit page says "Heads up — Enforcement actions aren't available in automoderator."

The linked page (https://www.reddit.com/r/reddit.com/wiki/automoderator/full-documentation/) says

• action - A moderation action to perform on the item. Valid values are approve, remove, spam, filter, or report. filter is a unique action to AutoModerator, and will remove the post but keep it in the modqueue and unmoderated pages.

Those sound like "enforcement actions" to me. The word "enforcement" does not appear anywhere on the documentation page so this is confusing.

So what can I do with automod? Thanks.

My name Is Dragonslayer Ben, and I am posting about my recently created subreddit. Please feel free to join. As of today, the only moderator is me and I am happy to review your requests to apply for the job. Thank you and goodbye.

Thank you so much for your support 🙏 Vedic and western astrology

I had been planning on it for quite a while, but after quite a few people were outspoken about how a certain subreddit was poorly moderated, I finally broke down and made a new version of it.

Problem is, I've gotten 0 members (as far as I can tell) in 2 months. 1 post by 1 other person, and 1 comment by 1 other person. That's a total of 2 other people posting in the span of 2 months.

99% of the people who complained about the other subreddit? Completely silent.

I get it's a slightly niche subreddit, but I figured if it looked nice, had good moderation, and I promoted activity (which I slightly dropped the ball on I admit, but I only had 1 post when I was doing such) people would actually want to contribute and post. But all I hear are crickets.

It's just frustrating to put so much hard work into something... only for it all to be for naught. I'm not sure if I should just close down the subreddit or not, but I guess I'll keep it for now.

Anyhow, thanks for reading.

Im finding it difficult in getting visitors to my new group poeticape .

Please if anyone can make suggestions?

Thank you

I was an active contributor to r/Cupertino posting everything about the local high schools. Eventually the haters forced me to start my own reddit on r/fuhsd so I could create a positive, inclusive, welcoming community for all.

Any suggestions or tips on how to grow this targeted niche besides posting an announcement or invitation in r/Sunnyvale and r/Cupertino?

I have been wondering how people get the Moderator role on Discord and communities in general. I have been doing my research, and I have still got nothing. Does anyone know how to get those roles?

Celebrate with me⭐️🎂🥳

I am curious to use it in my community r/Cringepolandballfans

I just put up wiki for the subreddit I managed but only me and the other mods can see it. I don't know where the enable Wiki is found. The current permission is Use Subreddit wiki permission and show list of wiki

Heyy I'm starting a community to help People who struggle with chronic illness or mental health. I'm new to Reddit and I really don't know what I'm doing... I'm trying my best haha. Anyways anyone interested in helping out as a mod or giving me some advice?

I've never been a mod of anything my own

What'll make people contribute? Or be interested in it?

And the first post, do i post something or should I wait for someone to??!!

I'm basically worse than a baby at this!!

Any help is appreciated, thank you!

I mean, I'm so confused. I started this subreddit about 2 months ago, and I haven't done any promo for it, reposting, crossposting or anything of the sort. Yet somehow, I have over 40k visitors and 1.1k posts in the last week. I keep looking around and it doesn't seem to really be possible, so I'm very confused on how this happened. But hey, I'll take this win.

TL;DR - Nominations for Mod Hall of Fame are officially open! Nominate fellow mods who went the extra mile this year by November 11th!

Hey new mods! Mod Hall of Fame season is here, and we’re excited to celebrate the mods who guide their communities with care, dedicate time to uplift fellow mods and Redditors, and make Reddit special. Like last year, we’re leaving it to you to spotlight outstanding mods and memorable community moments. We are also bringing back our Trailblazer category to celebrate new mods like you who have gone above and beyond to grow new communities. 

What’s Mod Hall of Fame? 

Mod Hall of Fame honors standout community leaders driving positive change on Reddit. It’s a program led by mods, for mods. Mods across Reddit submit nominations, and winners are chosen by a panel of mod judges. 

Just like last year, the winners will be announced live during a virtual ceremony on December 11, 2026  (you can RSVP right now 👀)

How do I nominate a mod?

Starting today, you can nominate fellow mods to be considered for the following award categories:

• 🏆 Community Champions: Mods who shape their community's culture. They lead by example, encourage meaningful contributions, foster inclusivity, and make their communities feel like home.
• 🎉Event Extraordinaires: Mods who have created and executed outstanding events for their community. They create experiences that invite members to participate and spark connections or traditions that continue beyond the event itself.
• 🚀 Trailblazers: New mods who started modding this year or mods whose communities have recently shown rapid growth + sustained community building. They’ve built momentum by helping new or fast-growing communities thrive, welcoming new voices, and fostering meaningful participation.
• 🔥 Hot Helpers: Mods who go out of their way to help fellow mods or users in their own communities or mod support subreddits like r/NewMods and r/ModSupport. They go above and beyond to answer questions and mentor others, leading to healthier, more welcoming communities and more confident moderators.
• 🌟Veteran Visionaries: Longtime mods whose impact has been essential to the long-term success of their communities. Their ongoing care and judgment help their spaces adapt and thrive, while inspiring fellow mods to build sustainable communities of their own.

Nomination criteria

• The nominee must be an active mod. 
  • We look at mod mail and moderator activity, as well as post/comment activity in owned communities, to determine activity status. Activity should be sustained over a period of time for someone to be considered an “active” moderator.
• Community impact should be focused on the mod’s leadership on Reddit within 2026.
• Nominations must include a short description and on-platform links demonstrating the nominee's contributions so our mod judges have enough context to evaluate them.

How will winners be determined?

• First, nominations will be reviewed by admins from Reddit’s community team. 
• Then, the mod judge panel will choose the top three winners in each category using a point-scoring system based on community impact, leadership, etc. 
• Winners will also pass a review by our Code of Conduct team and must accept their nomination before being featured.

Sounds good. How do I submit a nomination?

You can submit your nominations by November 11th, 2026 at 5:00 PM PST.

We are stoked to celebrate even more amazing mods and community moments with everyone, so thank you in advance for participating!

Hey everyone, I’ve been running r/smokehub for about a month now. It’s focused on cannabis and everything that comes with it – growing, products, experiences, culture, you name it. I’ve been posting regularly (myself and some friends), set up the sub properly with rules, logo, banner and description, and I’ve also done quite a few crossposts. Still stuck at only 16 members though. Feels a bit demotivating at this point. Does anyone have tips that actually worked for them when their sub was in this early stage? Especially for a topic like this. Happy to hear any advice – what worked for you, what didn’t, or just general encouragement. Thanks in advance!

I want to know what is the important settings that I have to change before posting on it. Like flairs or roles. And what roles should u add?

Please help me.

Things that worked for me is to be visible in relevant communites. Because most of the communities don't allow repost, so I stay visible by commenting or giving useful suggestions. Also post engaging and attractive content in my own subreddit r/NewToModesty.
