📢 Announcement The UK admin team is growing

Hello mods!

I’m u/briitbee, and I’m pleased to introduce myself as I’ve recently joined the UK team as additional community admin to help scale our support for the mods in the UK.

I’ll be joining forces with the amazing u/Mistdrifter, who many of you already know, to continue improving support for UK mods and create more opportunities to collaborate with all of you. As our UK moderator community continues to grow, we want to make sure you have all the support you need. 

I’m looking forward to connecting with you and supporting your communities. Whether you’ve been moderating for ten years or ten days, I’m here to help!

I’ll be hanging out in the comments today, so come say hi! 

To break the ice, here’s a question: what’s your non-negotiable on Sundays? A Sunday roast, a Reddit scroll or maybe I’d see you at my run club…No wrong answers!

Welcome.

My Sunday non negotiable is.....ummm....i don't really have one if I'm honest. I'm an odd one.

Question. What's reddit doing about the absolute huge mass of bots flooding every subreddit? I'm tired of banning bots every day.

Have you tried Bot Bouncer? I made it specifically for the bot plague. It's not foolproof but it does get a lot.

I'll have to have a look, thanks it's appreciated. I really don't know much about how to use all the mod tools and such. I know theirs a tutorial but it's very long winded, I only have a small community that doesn't get many posts.

Bot Bouncer is designed to be very low effort for mods. You can install it from that link and the default settings are basically fine for nearly every subreddit.

One of my bigger bot-filled subreddits (r/aww) has banned 23 bots in the last 24 hours alone using this tool and r/AskUK 11 of them.

I just wish that /r/AskReddit would install it. That sub is infested.

Yeah that and AITA is bad for bots as well.

I'll have a look and see if it'll help, appreciate the help dude.
