A lot of communities here were created by people who have have not logged on for months, were banned due to poor conduct, or are simply just one person trying to manage multiple communities (and maybe being an admin 😅).
Because of this we have a lot of communities that could use some love. If you see a community that you love that has 1, 2, or even no mods, and you would like help out and become a mod, message me here or on matrix, or message in the public or mod coordination matrix rooms and we will see about getting you added to the mod team.
If the community only has one or more mods that are still active we will reach out to them and get their approval to add you
If the community only has one mod and the mod has been inactive for 3+ months we will add you as a mod
If the mod has been inactive for 6+ months we will remove them and make you top mod.
If the community has no mods, you will become top mod.
Note: the purpose of this is to get a few passionate people from each community to run each community. We do NOT want people to run so many communities at once that they couldn't possible look at all of them. A few communities is fine, but several is putting us in a similar position to where we already are.
Edit: please mention specific communities in your message or comment!
Edit2: list of communities most in need of mods in my comments
Edit3: this hasn't happened yet but just to let everyone know, if you intentionally nuke a community, you will be banned from the site.
is there a way to easily see what communities could use some mods?
