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.

I'm sure the people posting this originally are teenage girls but... I'm honestly past the age where I wanna hear about teens being horny in any way
This is a reference to Derry girls, a tv show.
GRANNY! I SAID, IT’S A REFERENCE TO A POPULAR TV SHOW!
Television you say?
Is that the radio machine with the moving pictures?
Even college students look like (older) children to me, and I'm still a couple years off from 30.
Horse?
Or is that covered by 'wee English fella?'
Depends on whether the horse is english
All horses are English.
I mean, look at the teeth!
You arnt ment to look a gift horse in the mouth tho!
The horse isn't a gift, in fact I'm doing you a favor by taking it.
I seem to recall something about not looking horses in the mouth.
only applies to gift horses. they have a contract. it's in the contract.
Likely to also land on feral or horny.
Now that you mention it, I have never encountered a lesbian horse girl somehow. They're all into art instead
Or often both
I see no reason why these are mutually exclusive
I don't think it said they were mutually exclusive.
^this^ ^tweet^ ^is^ ^a^ ^Derry^ ^girls^ ^reference^ ^btw^
I need to rewatch derry girls so hard
I fell under ‘wee English fella’. I was the de facto stage manager at my high school and all the crew called me grandpa or gramps ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
There was also that time I wore a turtleneck/blazer combo so even the cast was calling me Captain haha
You forgot egg
That's the wee english fella
Ok but fr, that Ukrainian girl was totally gonna boyremove James and you can't change my mind.
Depending on how far in the closet they are, might also be covered under Lesbian.
Or feral, tbh.
Gender expectations for afabs in high school are unhinged. A “friend” once made me feel bad because I carried fat in my breasts, just because she was insecure about having smaller breasts than I did. I didn’t even want them at all, but somehow I got shamed for them not being good enough.
The most baffling part is that I didn’t get my period until 17, so at no point during high school did I even have a bust for her to get jealous about, I was just a little chubby.
I was also regularly called a man for not plucking my pretty tame eyebrows and getting fake tans. I’d say that they might have been picking up on my egg status, but I’m pretty certain that’s not the case. Man, I hated high school.
(Sorry for the stilted terminology- I don’t feel comfortable using any word to describe 17 year olds’ chests, it turns out.)
Don't worry, perfectly reasonable thing to be uncomfortable with imo.
It's "funny" that very thought about gender expectations is what made my own gender crisis in high school so difficult to navigate. I was only aware of the full Binary transition options and so being amab I thought the only way to be "not boy" was to "be girl" instead, I didn't know nonbinary was even a thing someone could be until my now wife heard my story over a decade later and introduced me to it.
So being the imaginative little doofus I am, I set about imagining my life from that perspective. Trying to see if I'd be happier as a girl. But what I kept coming back to was that as much as being a boy felt wrong, as much as I hated the gender expectations put on me for being born in that box, and as much as I wished that I had been born different because of things like being bullied for showing emotion or being seen as a predator for wanting to work with children deep down, all I'd be doing is trading one set of expectations I hated for a different set of expectations I hated in different ways.
I didn't learn until much later that a lot of that had to do with subconsciously being very uncomfortable as an asexual person with the amount of overt sexualization women face. Which makes a ton of sense because one of the big "male" expectations I hated was being constantly made to feel like I was broken because I wasn't looking to sleep with anything vaguely female shaped with a pulse.
Sorry, I'm rambling... uh... gender expectations are bullshit? Yeah... yeah that.
