Sorry, I was away for a bit, I’ve added you.

Sorry, I was away for a few days, adding you now.

It’s all good, I’ve added you back. Traffic has definitely fallen off in the offseason, but I didn’t want to just have a list of 10 mods with 8 of them being inactive haha. If you do not want to mod you can let me know and I’ll remove you again. Thanks for the reply.

So it would seem, would you like to be added as a mod? I see you active and working on game threads

May I ask when you were banned? Because YoBuckStopsHere only recently became the owner of the community, it may have been the prior mods/owners that did it.

They want an echo chamber, and that’s not how political news works.

I whole heartedly agree.

Modded you, but yeah if you and rezz want to take the lead on that and figure it out go for it. I sent rezz I reply earlier about another bot that some of my other communities was using before that one also died, but I had to github link so maybe they will be able to figure it out

He’s been banned and (most) of the comments removed.

So the mod Barns made/ported the other NBA bot, the bot I was talking with someone about in my DMs was a different bot, but I believe it’s one that gets used on Reddit a lot that was ported here and stopped working. The user had it working on my Phillies sub for ~half the summer until it stopped.

The bot is called “redball” and it’s on github, I believe this is the link https://github.com/toddrob99/redball

Again, not the same exact bot as far as I’m aware, but it did work well when it was up, I think it was actually quite simply banned for spam posting & possibly not flagging itself as a bot and the owner of the account just got pissed off and didn’t want to work on it anymore at least on LW.

Yeah, it seems like a fair approach, if you’re up to the task I can mod you so that you can pin them though.

Yeah, I think they sent it to me in PMs when I was discussing trying to get it migrated to NFL, let me check and get back to you.

Gotcha (and gotcha on the reply for the comment I just tagged you in). I agree about threads for every game, but it’s definitely a lot of work to do manually, if we have people willing to do it I’m game though. I just can’t personally commit to getting them all up

Moderator check, no idea if everyone I added back in June is still active, reply here if you’re still around and still want to mod, if you don’t reply within ~a week I’ll assume you’ve moved on from LW and remove you.

Hey, we had a bot that broke at some point over the offseason and the creator isn’t interested in fixing it, do you have any interest in being modded to handle game threads going forward?

I mean, modlogs on LW are publicly viewable, feel free to check mine out where you’ll see I did not ban you from anything.

I didn’t ban you, an admin did, but you can go on making yourself look stupid.

If enforcing instance-wide rules is an issue for you, I have bad news about any forums you choose to join in the future.

Not only is it against instance rules, but the comment was reported multiple times for being hateful and offensive, if it doesn’t personally offend you that is wonderful, it doesn’t change the bigoted nature of the word, and that it does offend some people. I gave OP 3 hours to edit the comment before I removed it, if anything that’s quite the opposite of Reddit moderation, where you’d simply have a comment removed and receive a ban instantly.

Can you reword your comment to remove the word “retarded” please? Otherwise, I have to remove it as the admins have made it clear that this word is not welcome here due to its bigoted, hateful, and potentially offensive nature, and the use of the word as an insult is discouraged.

Received reports for the source-- as usual, these are evaluated on a case-by-case basis as FoxNews is not currently “blacklisted”, it’s just “not-preferred”. After comparing this article to the one in the comments, they contain basically the same information and the conclusion is this particular post will be allowed to stay up. Many of the other links from Fox News have been taken down, not entirely because of the outlet, but because the content of the article went off the rails and did not match what other outlets had reported. If you have any discrepancies feel free to comment or tag me.

We respect that users may not want to click on links leading to Fox News, so as always we do encourage people to continue to post links to other outlets in the comments if you disagree with the source of any post (as ZephyrXero did here).
