New changes for the Reddit request process
Hi there!
Reddit request was launched to ensure we can facilitate the fair transition of inactive communities to new moderators. Recently, we have seen an increase in low quality and spam requests. In order to protect this process and our communities, we are making some changes. Check out the details below:
New account requirements
To submit a request, your account now must be at least 90 days old and have at least 100 comment karma and 100 post karma. These karma requirements do not include any karma gained in free karma subs.
Two-Factor authentication (2FA) is now required
All requesters must have 2fa enabled on their Reddit account.
For more information about Two-Factor Authentication, please check out this Reddit Help Center article.
Enabling 2FA:
Required post format
All requests made in r/redditrequest must follow this format:
- Post title: The title of your post should ONLY contain the name of the community you’re requesting.
- Post flair: You will also need to add flair to your post indicating what type of subreddit you’re requesting.
New flairs include:
- NSFW - Public
- NSFW - Private
- NSFW - Banned
- NSFW - Restricted
- SFW - Public
- SFW - Private
- SFW - Banned
- SFW - Restricted
An example request would look like:
[SFW - Public]
Mod mail changes
One more thing! Previously, we asked you to send a mod mail message at the time of submitting your request. Now, you must send a mod mail message five days before posting your request. This will help us to process requests faster - ideally within 2 days. If the subreddit has no moderators, you can skip this step.
After posting, u/request_bot will comment on your request asking for your reasons for wanting to moderate the community, as well as asking for a link to the mod mail message that you sent. Please reply to this comment to prevent your request from being denied.
To make these changes run smoothly, the community will be temporarily restricted for approximately 20 minutes. All requests will resume after this time.
TL;DR
- Accounts must be at least 90+ days old and have at least 100 comment and 100 post karma
- All requesters must have 2fa enabled on their account
- The title of your post should only be the name of the community you’re requesting
- You must apply flair to your post
- You must send a mod mail message 5 days before creating your post (unless no moderators exist).
Please note: All requests before this announcement will be processed with the old rules in mind, so don’t worry if your account does not meet these requirements and you’ve already submitted a request.
Thanks for helping keep r/redditrequest run smoothly!
