Hey there! It's your favorite (and only) /c/internetfuneral moderator here. I just wanted to share my current thoughts about this community as a whole and get some steam off while I'm at it. All my comments can be summarized in this comment I've made in a deleted posts:

Honestly, its been kinda tough deciding what’s considered “internet funeral” material or not. I always try to be a bit more lenient on posts, yet I still feel like the community just "isn't there yet". Unlike other community with basic and easily understandable rules, /c/internetfuneral is such a different community that you have to view it from a different angle. Its hard to moderate posts since

I'm not always online

and 2. Art is subjective. What classifies as “internet funeral” material to you might not be accurate to what I think it is.

I just like to judge posts whether or not it fits the vibe of this community. Is it a good way of moderating posts? I honestly don't know, but it seems to be mostly working for me.

From moderating this community for a few months, I've came to realize that it isn't just "surreal posts with text", but more of "[email protected] but with text" community. Because of this, I try to moderate posts under that specific context, but I understand that not everyone thinks of it that way.

Sorry if I was a bit ranty there, I just woke up.

Anyways, I would like to announce that I will be adding new moderators to this community! (Very exciting) More specifically, I'm looking for people in the European timezone to help moderate and curate posts (but I do welcome people in other time zones as well). I feel like I alone can't accurately curate posts alone. It would be better to have some second opinions to help too. Since this is such a niche community, it would help if you already knew about the original subreddit, or are an active community member (reporting posts, commenting, etc). If you're interested, comment on this post and I'll announce the winners tomorrow.

Thank you and have a good day.

Also thank you to everyone (especially @[email protected]) for actually reporting posts. <3

I’d be down to moderate if you are looking, already moderate a couple other communities. I live in UTC+9:30.
