Be nice. Assume others have good intent (within reason).

Avoid shilling for corporations, posting advertisements, or promoting exploitation of workers.

Moderator Guidelines
Moderator Guidelines
- Don’t be mean to users. Be gentle or neutral.
- Most moderator actions which have a modlog message should include your username.
- When in doubt about whether or not a user is problematic, send them a DM.
- Don’t waste time debating/arguing with problematic users.
- Assume the best, but don’t tolerate sealioning/just asking questions/concern trolling.
- Ask another mod to take over cases you struggle with, if you get tired, or when things get personal.
- Ask the other mods for advice when things get complicated.
- Share everything you do in the mod matrix, both so several mods aren't unknowingly handling the same issues, but also so you can receive feedback on what you intend to do.
- Don't rush mod actions. If a case doesn't need to be handled right away, consider taking a short break before getting to it. This is to say, cool down and make room for feedback.
- Don’t perform too much moderation in the comments, except if you want a verdict to be public or to ask people to dial a convo down/stop. Single comment warnings are okay.
- Send users concise DMs about verdicts about them, such as bans etc, except in cases where it is clear we don’t want them at all, such as obvious transphobes. No need to notify someone they haven’t been banned of course.
- Explain to a user why their behavior is problematic and how it is distressing others rather than engage with whatever they are saying. Ask them to avoid this in the future and send them packing if they do not comply.
- First warn users, then temp ban them, then finally perma ban them when they break the rules or act inappropriately. Skip steps if necessary.
- Use neutral statements like “this statement can be considered transphobic” rather than “you are being transphobic”.
- No large decisions or actions without community input (polls or meta posts f.ex.).
- Large internal decisions (such as ousting a mod) might require a vote, needing more than 50% of the votes to pass. Also consider asking the community for feedback.
- Remember you are a voluntary moderator. You don’t get paid. Take a break when you need one. Perhaps ask another moderator to step in if necessary.

Where are the topless Rupert Murdoch videos?
I DEMAND TO SEE THE TOPLESS RUPERT MURDOCH VIDEOS!
Surely some AI has made a lemon party with Murdoch, thiel, Trump?
I need to bleach my mind's eye
You are going straight to hell for that. Straight to hell....
And let's be honest, they love this feature
Yea, cus race, gender and age decides the character of a man!
Diddy must have been innocent!
No, but it does play a pretty significant role in how much influence they have to control AI
…yes, ai is controlled by white old rich man! Thats what makes them evil, their control over ai…
Jesus fuclimg christ raw mate
Are you actually this clueless or are you doing a bit? Genuine question.
No, being white, old, and rich doesn't make someone evil, though it's unlikely if not impossible to reach a certain enormity of wealth or power without being or becoming very twisted indeed.
It DOES, however, give you the kind of privilege that makes a controlling interest in the newest Silicon Valley fad that the rest of the world is suffering under much more likely.
Of the richest 100 people in the world, only one is a black man and of the world's over 3000 billionaires only 3 are black women. Also, nearly half of all billionaires are between 50 and 70 years old.
Yes, because race and gender decides the character of a man
Diddy must have been innocent!
To be fair gender does indeed contribute to the character of a "man" by definition.
Race doesn't inherently but it just so happens that the people who the US justice system gives preferential treatment to are rich old white men. Wonder why that is? Could be that they are the ones who predominantly control the purse strings of the capitalistic society in which we live, and by extension will exert control over AI when it begins to harm them or their bottom line personally but not before hand.
Edit: I put "man" in quotes to point out the joke. Someone who defines themselves as a woman or anything other than a man can't have their gender contribute to the character of a man because they aren't one. It wasn't that deep.
-No your gender doesn’t have any bearing on your character! I too could make unfounded statements too! Your mom smell like argenian crackers -No, the us does not give preferential to any sex, nor race anyomore; and it has never given preferential treatment to seniority! Again, I could make unfounded statements too! -Nor does it actually give preferential treatment to rich folk from a legal sense, they do have a strong edge being capable of accessing not only necessary resources, but good ones at that! Once again, I could make unfounded statements too if I was bothered to make any more up
we exist in a classist patriarchal white supremacist society. examples of people who are both evil and Black don't change the overall framework of the problem and how it perpetuates itself
