   Aus Social Mods (aussocialmods@aus.social)'s status on Thursday, 04-Sep-2025 21:13:36 JST Aus Social Mods

   We're currently seeking expressions of interest from aus.social members to join the mod team. There's no expectation to be available every day. We generally receive only a few reports every day, unless there's a wave of spam. New mods are provided basic training and ongoing support.

   Moderation decisions are made by consensus, after discussing reports and using the Code of Conduct for guidance. Many reports related to spam. Other common reports (mostly involving off Instance accounts) include trolling, racism, transphobia, anti-Semitism and Islamophobia.

   If you're interested in becoming a mod, first have a re-read of the aus.social code of conduct. Then reply to this post by direct message, telling us what you can bring to the role.

   Thanks
   Aus social mods

     @AusSocialMods Please be careful doing this. Call for mods tends to attract people who want to abuse mod power. If you're not limiting search to folks who already showed positive engagement with moderation & safety processes, make sure to vet volunteers really well.
