Subreddit We're the /r/SmashBros modteam! Ask us anything!

Hey r/smashbros, as part of our moderator application campaign, we decided to do an Ask Us Anything, today on Sunday, the 25th of April.

Have you ever wondered how the job of an /r/smashbros moderator works? If you have specific questions, this is your chance! You can find out how the job works, how we feel about specific topics/rules or simply which character we main.

Drop your questions below, and we'll be answering them for the whole day.

If you get interested in doing moderator work yourself, don't be afraid to apply now, since we still have our mod apps open (until May, 1st!!)!

EDIT: Alright, crew, we are officially done with questions at the moment. If anyone has any last minute additions we'll do our best to get to those too. I think I can speak for all of us when I say it was a blast getting to do this and getting to interact with you all personally. See you next time!

Honestly, I originally applied on a lark. I wanted a way to contribute to the community, but I'm very much a lurker (as you can see from my comment history) and came on right at the start of COVID, so I had plenty of free time to dedicate to it.

Now I'm truly glad I've stuck around for over a year. Our community and modteam are full of awesome people I've gotten to know and it feels great knowing that we can help foster a welcoming environment for our users.
