Canadian mods showed up and showed out on Saturday. Thank you for living, laughing, and loving with us! Great to see y'all ❤️

P.s. I ate my first peameal bacon sandwich. 10/10. It had maple mustard.

Happy Merch Monday!

Looks like New Mod Bootcamp [Q2] merch has started reaching more of you around the globe (thank you for your patience on this one). Time to show it off! 🌎

Haven’t received any merch recently? Dig into your merch archives instead. We’d love to see your favorite pieces, old or new. 

If you missed the kickoff last month, now's your chance to join in. We want to see your merch! 

You know what to do: drop a photo of your mod merch in the comments below. Let’s see what you’ve got.  👀 

See you next week!

Not Monday? You know the drill, merch photos are to be posted in our Merch Megathreads (u/kongsworth’s dream). Any merch comments not related to the photos being shared, for example, your merch order, shipping or tracking information, feedback, merch eligibility, etc. will be removed. 

It's officially been one month of Cat Tax Thursday! 🎉 Y'all have shared the most wholesome photos of your pets - from cats and dogs to a deer and a lamb!  We've been absolutely spoiled with all of this of pet serotonin.  

Here are the 7 most upvoted pet photos from the past month! Thanks to everyone who's participated and brightened our Thursdays. 😻

• A lovestruck cat! by u/Kitchen_Engineer1332
• "Cat with job” by u/I_-AM-ARNAV
• Ms Scarlett the GOAT by u/Chilasono
• Teeny tiny cat tax by u/Short_Employment_757

Have more pet pictures you’re dying to share? Looking for more pet serotonin? You’ve come to the right place. In our weekly cat tax thread, you can drop a pet picture that describes your current mood or one that you’d love to share. ALL pets are allowed, not just cats!  🐾

Since we end most events by paying cat tax, we figured we’d create that space for y’all to do the same every week. Remember to keep things kind in the comments. Happy cat taxing!🥹

Howdy!

Hey y'all! Can't wait to see you next week for the Virtual Mod Meetup. Make sure to register if you haven't already!

A few notes:

• There will be no merch at this event and we will be muting anyone who talks about merch from the chat (with love).
• We're switching up the format a bit to encourage more interaction within the community. Come give it a shot!
• Don't worry, we'll still play trivia.
• This event will not be recorded since it is chat-based.

Annnnd song suggestions anyone?

• As you know, we play an intro & closing song at every event.
• This week, we're taking suggestions!
• We'll play the the top 2 most upvoted songs from the comments below.
• Please keep them somewhat clean. I'm not trying to get fired ☺️

I just saw that the next in-person Mod Meetups in North America are in Toronto on Saturday, 7/18; San Francisco on Thursday, 8/13; and Los Angeles on Thursday, 8/27.

I live in Chicago and just attended the Chicago Mod Meetup in May. I could technically drive to Toronto in a day, or I could book a flight. I also have friends in San Francisco and LA I could fly out to meet. Either way, since I'm an event planner, I'm always eager to make plans, and I love meeting people at events!

1. How often do mods travel for meetups? (I know people traveled up to two hours away from the Chicago event, but that's basically Chicagoland traffic for you.)
2. There is a waitlist for all three meetups that I mentioned. How likely will any waitlist spots open?
3. If spots are open, does anyone wants to drive with me between Chicago to Toronto? It'll be an adventure! (I haven't met any terrible people off Reddit yet, so let's keep it that way.)

I missed the moddit sadly, no emails or anything despite me doing rspv

Edit: admin said i never showed up in any lists so i assumed my wifi must have bugged out when i was doing the rsvp thing, Reason i am not commenting this is because every time i comment i get -10 upvotes withen short amount of time for no real reason, might have bots on my tail or something

Reminders are better late than never, right? ....right?

Excited to see y'all today at a very special Moddit featuring two of our AMA leads here at Reddit. They'll be diving deeper into the AMA process, tools, and best practices for mods of any community.

Make sure you're registered HERE to join live or receive the recording via email.

Catch ya there!

Hello Monday, hello merch! 👋

Welcome back to our weekly merch celebration. If you missed the kickoff the last two weeks, now's your chance to join in, we want to see your merch!

You know what to do: drop a photo of your mod merch in the comments below. Let’s see what you’ve got 👀

See you next week!

I attended the event in Manchester last year and I had a great time then too, so I was always pretty confident this would be worth the travel from up North.

We met in a bar called Mr Foggs tavern https://www.mr-foggs.com/mr-foggs-tavern/ which was Victorian themed and honestly pretty cool once we were inside.

There were 3 admins who attended and what I really enjoyed about their presence is that you could tell they were all passionate about their work/ area of focus.

There were parlour games to play, so we alternated between golf/ croquet style games, a billiards style game and a dart based game. The food the venue provided was really good too, which is always a bonus.

The vibes at the mod meet-ups have been brilliant both times I've attended.. They can be a little bit awkward at first as you literally have no idea who/ what sub-reddits are going to attend!

There were name badges provided for people to help break the ice and once we switch focus to getting the games going the conversation started to flow pretty well amongst all of the groups of people!

Breaking the ice was easier for me than some other as I came last year, so there were some friendly faces who joined my table early and they all appreciated being nervous last time! There was a bit of empathy for how scary it can be for a stranger to attend an event full of strangers! You guys did so well at building up groups and helping people feel comfortable!

I'll be honest with you, after 45 minutes or so, once the ice had been broken.. I don't think I had a single conversation about anybodies actual sub-reddits or moderating, we were just people enjoying each others company..

If you didn't attend this event because of the travel, I did a 6 hour drive to London on the Friday and an 8 hour drive home on the Sunday and I do not regret it. I want to try and assure you that it's worth the travel!

If you didn't attend because of social anxiety, I'd like to encourage you to try and move past that for the next one! You will be well looked after and you won't be pressured into doing anything you don't want to do.. But I'm positive that you'll have a great time!

All in all I would like to thank the admins who organised the event, you did a great job!

I would like to thank the other mods and guests who attended for nailing the vibes!

And I'd like to encourage anybody at all who's on the fence about coming to the next one to be brave and come and have a great time with some extremely interesting people!

Cheers guys!

See you again next year!

Its not easy as a mod from Southwestern Canada to make it to meetups, considering the big ones are places like LA, London, or NY.

Thank you to u/Mistdrifter, and to all the attending mods and admins - my first in person event and it was great fun, what a lovely bunch of people! Excellent choice of venue, great food and cocktails, and thank goodness for the air-conditioning. Really enjoyed meeting everyone i talked to - see you at the next one!

This is the first time I’ve been able to come to an event in person, I’m so excited!

I see a lot of mod event names, like place, moddit etc etc (i forgot the names :3 )

That being said, i was just curious how different the mod event works out. Also i was curious about the merchs given to mod as an appreciation by reddit.

How do i as an moderator receive merchs from reddit 😋 (Obviously I'd brag about to to my freinds hehehehe)

Tysm!
