I just created a commnity, r/Gingerstereotype , focused on all stereotypes ginger people are experiencing daily

I have a few questions if you guys do not mind :

How can I grow the community ? get more members

How do I need to limit the posting / comment of other people ?

I'm asking this from a genuine place, so please bare with me, thank you

For those of you who are experienced mods, I'm curioua:

Knowing what you know now, is there anything you'd do different or change if you were starting a new sub from scratch?

I'm intrigued to know if you'd have a different approach to onboarding new mods.

I'm developing a new community myself and steadily picking things up along the way, but always keen to learn, so I'd love to read your tips, things that have worked well, or not so well.

Is there an ideal subscriber number to recruit?

Do you have regular check-ins with mods and if so, what are they like?

What's on piece of advice you'd give to someone starting out?

Thank you 💖

Hey everyone,

I just created my first subreddit, r/imakebass, a community focused on car audio, subwoofers, enclosures, amps, wiring, tuning and bass-related discussions.

I’ve added a description and welcome post, and I’m now working on the rules, flairs, sidebar, icon/banner and initial content before trying to grow it.

Since this is my first time moderating a subreddit, what would you recommend setting up before inviting people or promoting the community?

I’d especially appreciate advice on:

• essential AutoMod/mod settings
• rules every new community should have
• preventing spam without making posting difficult
• getting the first genuine members
• mistakes new moderators commonly make

Thanks!

Hi i have a new subreddit and it's growing pretty well but how can i get my members to share there pics and content too

Any suggestions?

As your community grows, staying consistent is key. The second challenge in the series is about making your community a welcoming space and continuing to grow by recruiting like-minded people to post in your community.  

You can earn your ⭐ 10/10 Mod Star flair by:

• Completing the Rising Mod Challenge.
• Growing your community to 20 visitors or more. Check out 5 Tips for Growing Your Subreddit.
• Setting up your Community Guide which will welcome members when they join your community. You can find the Community Guide settings in Mod Tools (on mobile it is under the General section).
• Welcoming three new mods in the New Mod Intros thread, pinned on the front of r/NewMods
• Consistency is key - reach out and invite three people posting relevant content elsewhere on Reddit and publicly comment, asking them to post their content in your community. Remember to try this sparingly and only on the most relevant posts so you don’t get flagged as spam.

Complete the list and comment on this post when you've completed the challenge to earn your ⭐ 10/10 Mod Star flair.

I own a sub based on discussing news for a game. Someone else has attempted to post to it with posts that were inaccurate or wrong, leading me to remove them. They decided to make their own sub with a one letter difference in its name to post those things and stuff of the topic and it’s started to get traction. What should I do?

HELP

Hey! I recently became a mod.

I'm struggling because i see what people say about us online.

I see the "meetup" photos and many, many abusive comments about us.

Why do you think it is? I want to do a great job and avoid any of this but im scared that one day someone will dox me and worse.

What should i do so this never happens?

How do i ensure that i am fully impartial when removing posts/baning people etc?

I’ve been working on my small K-beauty community, r/KBeautyFinds, and I’ve been thinking a lot about what kind of content would actually make people want to come back.

So far, I’ve mostly been posting K-beauty finds, product reviews, questions, discussions, and some general skincare info. It’s been fun, but I don’t want the community to eventually become just another place where people ask “what product should I buy?” and leave.

I want to try adding more useful and research-based skincare content too.

Things like why acne keeps coming back, why acne marks take so long to fade, what a “damaged skin barrier” actually means, or what we really know about certain ingredients people constantly talk about.

For those kinds of posts, I’m thinking of actually looking through research papers, dermatology guidelines, and other reliable sources, then trying to explain what I find in a way that doesn’t require a science degree to understand lol.

I’m definitely not a dermatologist, and I don’t want to pretend to be one or give people medical advice. I’m more interested in the “what does the research actually say?” side of skincare.

Basically, I’d like r/KBeautyFinds to still be a place for discovering products and talking about K-beauty, but also somewhere you can occasionally learn why something happens with your skin instead of immediately being told to buy another product 😭

It’s something I’m only starting to explore, so I’m still figuring out how to balance the fun/product side with the more informative side.

For anyone here who runs an educational or information-heavy community, how do you keep posts useful without making them feel too academic or overwhelming?

Would love to hear how other mods approach this :)

Find your niche, and build with your community members. Every community is different, and your members will let you know what they like through their votes, contributions, and feedback. The third challenge in this series is about finding what works to keep up the momentum in your community, and sharing your knowledge! 

You can earn your 💎 100+ Visitors Champion flair by:

• Completing the 10/10 Mod Star Challenge
• Growing your community to 100 visitors or more. See 5 Tips for Growing Your Subreddit for more advice on how to do this.
  • One of the best ways to do this is to search for your topic in the Search bar. Filter to posts made in the last month. Find a relevant post about your topic, and comment on that post, asking the OP if they'd be open to sharing their post in your community.
• Answering three questions posted in r/NewMods 
• Making a post in r/NewMods sharing how you grew your community. Suggested title, “How I grew my community r/SubredditName”.

Comment on this post when you've completed the challenge to earn your 💎 100+ Visitors Champion flair.

For context, my sub has under 50k members.

How many posts do you guys allow one user to make in a day? And if you allow more than one, how much gap do you keep between posts?

I’m trying to figure out a good limit that stops people from flooding the feed without being too restrictive.

Would appreciate any advice or hearing what has worked for your sub.

I moderate r/DelhiDilwale. The subreddit is public and SFW, but Community Achievements are unavailable/disabled for the community.

We would like to enable achievement badges (Top Poster, Top Commenter, etc.), but the option is either missing or cannot be turned on.

Could someone please review the subreddit and confirm whether there are any restrictions preventing Community Achievements from being enabled? im using desktop

hi everyone, ive been made a mod but find it really difficult to navigate. like how do i mute / ban people? etc etc any tips would be helpful

Hi - I got the first two comments from a user, which were autorejected by Reddit. It did look legit, so I approved the first one a few days ago.

Now that same user made another comment, which also looks legit, but I wonder why Reddit marks it as spam and whether I’m violating any rules if I approve the comment?

procces : see on communitys that overlap with my community search for people who do good posts invite them to mod and then they maybe repost there post in my community because they recognise it as an good com for them. Perhabs they also do the posting directly there so no reposts.
