Hi all,

I'm an admin on blahaj.zone, /196's home instance. I'm not a member of /196, and I'm not familiar with its history. However, I'm seeing a LOT of reports coming through that aren't being actioned by community mods.

It looks like the original mod has deleted their account, and the remaining mod hasn't been active since their initial post 2 days ago.

What I'm hoping to see is that @threegnomes logs back in, appoints some mods and gets things under control.

But should that not happen, I'm going to need to step in and appoint some mods myself

Either way, if you're interested in being a mod, please reply below. I (and hopefully @threegnomes) will look at everyone that gets lots of community support (via upvotes or replies) and put some more mods in.

Lots of upvotes doesn't mean you automatically get the job. I reserve the right to veto candidates that I think are going to create more work rather than reduce it.

idk where the discourse regarding the "gender neutral dude" landed, although I considered swapping it out for "amigo" but that obviously has its own gendered nature, although I think in English it is suitable neutered ("amiga" means nothing to English speakers except to computer nerds)

I just found that a bit funny, dw. also, as a native Spanish speaker, I do find "amigo/a" a tad annoying hahaha. guess gender neutralization™ is somewhat difficult hahahahahab :'D
