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!

When are you guys remaking the r/ discord server? The server one of your mods deleted for no reason

u/Stuart98 Angry with how the new flair system limits characte Apr 25 '21

The r/ discord was only ever tied to this subreddit in name only; only three of its moderators were moderators of the subreddit at any point and there was little overlap between regular users of each. While the rest of the team didn't agree with the decision to delete the place, we've also seen little reason to create a replacement given the amount of drama associated with it and how little the overlap between the subreddit and discord communities was. Decisions in the mod team are made democratically so if most of the team changes their minds or if the new subreddit mods feel differently then it's not out of the question, but for the time being there are no plans to create a new official discord for the subreddit. I expect that even if we do create one in the future it will little resemble the old r/.

A big part of the reason for drama in the server was because of the very controversial owner, who then deleted the server because people wanted them to step down. But I get it, thanks for the response.
