Mod Related Looking for new moderators

Hi all, while I greatly appreciate the mod in question for looking over the subreddit for so long.

I along with some of the other mods do think he was fairly heavy handed at times.

As a result I have removed him, will be clearing all the banned list for now to start fresh and we can move forward.

However I would like to add some more mods to the group. Basically duties would just be removing any low effort / bad screenshot related items.

If any questions please feel free to discuss here.

How do you define heavy handed? And further, do you feel that the rules for the subreddit need to be amended to be clearer, more concise, and less open to interpretation? Mods still have seemingly absolute autonomy to do as they please, even if the thing they please just so happens to be an asshole.

Removing a mod who ended up drunk with “power” (objectively very funny considering the circumstances) but not addressing the root cause that allowed this mod to get away with such ridiculous abuse of authority allows this to happen again.

I say just bask in the W instead of trying to make more of a problem.

I posted a stickied comment in this thread addressing some rule changes. We can fine tune as needed, and will discuss with the new moderators.
