MODERATORS

I love askhistorians can all of us get a group together to become mods and ask real questions? Instead of a bot who wants karma? (self.askhistorians)

Don't we need more actual historians first?

Yes or people to go look up the questions and find answers then post a reply? I still can't believe this is modded by a bot.

You can probably ask the admin of this instance to give you modding permissions over this community.

The thing I love specifically about askhistorians on Reddit is the pains they take to ensure responses are written by, or at least can pass basic scrutiny from, trained historians. Why not make a new community with a slightly different name that you can moderate and create the same vibe of thoughtful responses without invoking a very specific paradigm that I don't think we have numbers to match?

Not asking for a fight...but do you want to get something together ?
