Mod Position - CLOSED
Rule34 has a need for new mods to help keep the site safe.

Primary tasks are to moderate content on the website to ensure it follows the terms of service, this involves images/comments/posts when the terms of service are broken as well as the moderation of tags and image/media info to make sure it also adheres to the site's terms of service of what content is permitted.

Also the regular checking of the image/comment report queues (some of every queue per day) containing reports from users who have possibly found images and comments which violate the terms of service, these need to be investigated and if found to be as such, removed from the site to keep this site running, you need to be able to process all content including disturbing content.

Another aspect of moderation involves liaising with users when terms of service have been broken and informing them with a warning when necessary, should they not be compliant it may require the attention of an Administrator to either speak with the user or if required to ban them from the service, a moderator will also be required to field questions from the user regarding the day to day running of the website, how to use the site, site terms of service, deletion reasons etc. again it may be necessary to inquire with other staff or Admin in the staff channel or site mail as to the answer.

Teamwork as in most positions is paramount, therefore a moderator is expected to work as part of a team of moderators, this involves communication via site mails and text chatting on our server's staff channel, where a moderator can report anything they feel they need to report, ask questions and ask for support if needed with dealing with a task or user matter as well as benefit from more experienced view on matters if needed.

Discord is essential and you need to be on there to get updates and communicate/report quickly via text only, we don't voice chat, not to worry.

Keeping up good communication with others on the team is essential to ensure everyone is on the same page and everyone is kept informed and up to date, a good fluency level and a grasp of the English language and the ability to communicate calmly and concisely is required with fellow staff and users.

We are especially looking for someone to help us with the post-approval and report queues, especially comments, we are getting more racism and non English comments which need removing.

Instruction and full support when learning provided by Admin and the mod team.

To be a mod you need to have been on the site at least 6 months, get along well with everyone and have a clean record for those 6 months, those not able to get in last time are encouraged to re-apply. You also need to be able to come on Discord regularly to keep in the loop, mostly reading my team updates and current events, don't worry no voice chat at all.

If your motivation for applying is to better the site and keep your fellow users safe, this is the motivation we are looking for, this is a volunteer position with some perks remember, so you will need the right motivation to keep doing this.

Please send me a site mail if interested, we are doing it private this time, put "mod interest" in the title, please.


I will announce when mods have been selected and lock the thread once recruitment is over, thankyou!

Yes free name changes etc are included if you like :)

TLDR: There will be processing queues of things reported by users and helping them out with questions via mail and discord text chat, if you don't like one part of the site, like the comments, or the forum, this may not be not for you, mods have to do a little of every queue including new user upload queue.
