Hello mateys, do you want to help steer the ship? Well you’re in luck, mod applications for /c/piracy are now open.

After seeing an obviously spam post hanging in the comm frontpage for hours yesterday with a dozen reports for it up, I realize we might need more people to react to it around here.

The job is not very demanding really. We don’t get a lot of things violating the rules around here. Just some obvious spam mostly. Expected effort is probably as low as a couple of hours per week. Basically being able to keep an eye for possible reports while you’re active through your day. So let us know if you can lend a hand.

  • Must be willing to enforce instance rules as well.
  • Being very active in /c/piracy will be a big a plus, as that will allow you to notice and respond to problem posts, even before they’re reported.
  • Knowledgeable about pirate culture and tech a plus.
  • Bonus if you’re an anarchist as that vibes with our instance’s culture, but not strictly necessary.

Looking for 1-2 mods. Preferrably in different timezones.

Post your application in the comments and mention the timezone you’re in.

          Not OP, but I have come across a few, not many, alt right users from the dbzero instance. Not enough to remember their names, but enough to know they definitely exist.

          Though I will keep an open eye for them now.

            The instanceapplication isn’t very rigorous, so obviously it’s not impossible. We try too give some leeway since we don’t expect everyone here to be an anarchist of course, but that’s a far cry from a “neonazi” . If you come across any egregious examples just let us know.
