Hi all, I wanted to let you know about an incident that happened a few days back. An individual requested to become a mod on c/Portland when they thought there was no moderators due to a federation issue. Then, an admin mistakenly made them a mod.
I reached out to the admins to let them know I was upset by such a mistake happening on their part. I also de-modded the individual, but tried to encourage them to make a post getting input from all of you about becoming a mod. I’m honestly not against them becoming a mod.
I think having more mods would actually help this place grow. If you’ve posted here at least a few times, and are interested in volunteering, nominate yourself below.
I doubt anyone will have any red flags to call out, but if you do contact me about it or post.
Thanks all. I hope you were able to stay cool these past few days.
Unfortunately, that sub hasn’t been useful for news for awhile. It’s somewhere between a shitty police blotter and just pandering photos. I kinda wish there was more engagement about events and things unique to the city over here but we’re building the world we want to have.
Yeah, they started cracking down on a lot of random shit. I asked a question and the post got removed because asking questions was no longer allowed, you have to ask in askportland. Like, I get some of it, but it’s not exactly a super busy sub, so it’s probably going to be okay. Smh.
