What a swell guy, approved!
Is having lives outside of a niche internet community a requirement?
Not really, but it is recommended
Don't tell me how to live my life
Fair enough! I also like patapon btw
Hello! I would also like to join and help out at 196. My main Account on World got banned from a Troll-Mod for being "nice to trans People and rude to Transphobes", I hope this speaks in my favor? I really like 196. It has such a chill vibe and fantastic people! I live in Germany, and I'm active in politics (VOLT).
I hate when people just come in a spam bullshit and harass people. This is such an Immature behavior and just annoying af. I do my best to report them as fast a possible but I would like to do more! If I can help in some way I'm here :D
My Mastodon: https://troet.cafe/@Roflmasterbigpimp
It's all in German, tho. But translators will do the Job, I guess :P
You're hired! Sending you the discord link now. Once you join, I'll appoint you to mod
Yaayyy thank you :D
based Volt member
as well as a link to at least one other social media account. (reddit, twitter, instagram, facebook, mastodon, tumblr, bluesky are all accepted.)
People who deleted them all:
For the extremely rare case of someone who somehow doesn't have ANY other social media, I'm sure we can work something out.
I don't want to be a mod, but respect to those who do it out of wanting to help their communities.
If I can stop random floods of dick pics by drunks, I'm down. Also, let's make this a public application, shall we?
My social media handle is common between Lemmy and Reddit, so no hiding there. I was a mod of /r/Chameleons for a while, as well as some other subs. Needless to say, reptile owners are a unique breed and have even delt with just about every type of human.(My account on Reddit is stale and I quit /r/Chameleons during the third-party app exodus. My main function was to shut down user-user conflict and coordinate with other mods during brigading events, which were more common on reptile subs than you would think.)
I am very active on Lemmy and I'll use an alt for any modding stuffs, specific to the community and instance. (I am mostly instance agnostic, but for my daily driving I use lemmy.ca and haven't had a need to use any other one yet. lemmy.world was annoying, so I moved my "main" account after a short trial.)
Also, I like long walks on sandy beaches just before sunset. That puts my formal modding hours between 11PM and 6AM UTC but I do check Lemmy throughout the day.
Unless its an active troll pushing state funded propaganda, I can roll with just about anything within the laws of the land. Modding 196 could be fun, but I'll just resign the position myself if it doesn't work. No hard feelings.
[OMG UR HIRED / wut?] -- Circle one choice.
Seems good to me! I'll send you an invite to our discord and appoint you to moderator status here as soon as you join.
Did you gain the ability to rotate your eyes independently
Yes. My eyeballs rolled back so much modding that sub I think I broke something permanently.
I had to deal with this psychopath several times..[NSFL, if you are animal abuse sensitive]: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7665431/Vegan-activist-admits-gave-pet-chameleon-exfoliating-coconut-BODY-WASH.html
The bitch finally got her ass arrested in Moscow for similar shit, actually. Something about giving her pet calf a walk ...
Any 196 mods, new or old that are on Matrix, please let me know. We have a matrix mod bot that will help deal with spam attacks that we can set you up with.
Is it ok that I'm in my 80s and a little senile? How about if I was very senile?
sounds like you meet all the prerequisites for a moderator
Maybe Congress or the presidency is more your speed, then..
Are you being serious or not..?
It's hard to be serious in 196.
Works for the presidents of the USA I guess
Why did someone just get unbanned to be appointed as a mod?
apparently they got banned by a troll mod and said so in a comment here, I dont get how they could make a comment while banned tho x3 or maybe they talked to the mods in private and then made a comment here
Note that Lemmy DM's aren't that private. I'm not really into sharing other accounts in general but if you don't get any bites let me know.
I didn't even know lemmy had DM's
It has but admins can potentially see them.
Oh well. Private enough to send a hyperlink imo
I'm interested, but I worry I might not consistently have enough uptime. What would be the expectations, kinda?
Basically just help out when you have the time. If you're really interested, just write up an application as a reply to this post/comment
Yes hello I'm located in the EST zone and spend an unhealthy amount of time on 196.
I already run c/montreal on Lemmy.ca, so I'm familiar with the tools.
if you're still interested, would you be willing to link any other socials, and provide a little bit more information about yourself?
Of course! I'll PM you in a bit :)
excellent! The fact that you've been active and available in the 2 months since you sent in your application bodes very well
Hi, I'd like to help out with moderation. I'm currently also moderating !videos@lemmy.world, !netherlands@lemmy.world and a few others. I am 1 hour ahead of UTC and active throughout the day. I've been on mastodon since 2019, but I'm not that active there. I prefer the way Reddit/Lemmy works. I still have an account on Reddit and an alt on lemmy.blahaj.zone (@qaz@lemmy.blahaj.zone), but I rarely use them.
So, I would like to keep 196 free of harassment and people called Thulean.
This poor actress that took this stupid AI-written role. She’ll forever be a meme because she was tricked and clearly miserable.i feel like we should replace her face with the assholes who funded and put this piece of shit on.
Hi, if you still need more mods I would gladly help out!
I primarily reside in the MST/MDT timezone, and spend a pretty good amount of time browsing here and the general fediverse (https://blahaj.land/@ty), so I would be able to give it my all when required. Unfortunately I don't post much myself mainly due to a lack of creativity and just because most of the memes I have are from c/196 itself, though I really love the community that has developed here
As for existing experience, I moderate/admin a (at present) 131626 member discord server surrounding a Minecraft mod (I can give you the invite and/or my username if you want), so I have experience dealing with people and helping resolve issues as fast as I can when needed. I have been doing staff-related roles in that server since December 1st 2020, so I am not very new to moderating online spaces :)
hey there, sorry about taking so long for the second round. turns out studying for exams is really fucking hard!
Would love to apply but I already got my hands full with being the only mod in like 6 Communitys atm heh...
Totally fine. No need to overwork yourself lol
If you need someone to help in the central time zone, I can. I've modded a fairly large discord server where I had to deal with all kinds of unfathomably deranged content that I won't describe here.
I feel confident I could mod judiciously here and follow your style of modding, but I also have a history with some people here, so they might not feel comfortable with me modding, and I totally understand if that's a problem.
My tumblr is in my profile. It's a fairly new account, but I've been on tumblr since maybe a year before dashcon, but that old account got banned for reasons I have honestly never been able to determine. I can share my signal or discord via DM, if you'd prefer that instead.
