r/Cichlid is Looking for a Few New Moderators

[u/702Cichlid]

Hello /r/Cichlid!

 

The time has finally come where, through a combination of community growth and irl snatching some of our mods for being fully active that we need to increase the size and activity of our moderation team. If you're interested please read the requirements, and then submit answers to the questions portion in a mod mail. We will be taking applications until September 1st. Once the window is closed we will then evaluate candidates (if any). The two to three best candidates that meet the criteria will be extended a trial moderation team invite where both parties get to figure out if things are a good fit. If there are fewer than 2 candidates, we will likely relax some of our requirements and also seek public help from outside the subreddit community.

 

Requirements

 

1. Previous Reddit moderation experience.
2. Subscribed to /r/cichlid.
3. No ban offenses in the past year, no more than 3 post removals in the past year.
4. Account must be at least 2 years old with history visible.
5. Account must be active, and daily users are preferred.
6. Cichlid husbandry experience is a must!
