MODERATORS
 

Anyone out there want to moderate this community? We had some great discussions this last tourney. But maybe we need mods to help figure out how to deal with spoilers and things like that.

It looks like the person who created this community, @WaddleDIO@lemmy.world, is no longer around. I know the process for claiming an abandoned community, but I don't want to be a mod myself. (though I'll probably keep making my usual posts here.)

Now I'll try to ping everyone who was active here recently: @not_woody_shaw@lemmy.world @merde@sh.itjust.works @diplomjodler3@lemmy.world @chip_rat@lemmy.world @dv8@lemmy.world @zabadoh@ani.social @jerkface@lemmy.ca @chickenf622@sh.itjust.works @wangus@lemmy.world @tuckerm@feddit.online @finitebanjo@piefed.world @Thedogdrinkscoffee@lemmy.ca @clay_pidgin@sh.itjust.works Any of y'all want to be mods? Just reply here. Please state if you have experience, but it's OK if you don't, I'll find someone to help start you out, this community's pretty quiet between tournaments anyway.

I appreciate the offer but I'm quite busy.

Also, I deleted my World accounts because they're outwardly supporting the ML Developers Dessalines and Nutonic, who are violent extremists, transphobes, etc.

OK, fair enough. btw next tourney is Jan 11, and the ranking are already out! https://www.sumo.or.jp/EnHonbashoBanzuke/index/

I've created a post in !support@lemmy.world to add me as a mod.

Please add yourself if you also want to join the mod team here.

Awesome, looks like you have experience, too. I suggest giving others a couple days to reply. Let me know if you need any help getting things set up.

Personally I wouldn't like to be a mod again. But having a mod who can at least enforce the consensus of rules sounds good.
