Inactive mods? (lemmy.world)
submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by Spacebar@lemmy.world to c/lemmyworld@lemmy.world
 

I moderate the /c/stopdrinking community. The person who created it didn't want to mod, and so I volunteered. Now the creator has gone inactive and hasn't been around for for 4 days.

I'd like to update the sidebar, etc, but only the creator seems to be able to do that.

What happens if he never comes back? If he can eventually be removed, what would be a reasonable amount of time to wait?

In the meantime, can an Admin change the sidebar text for me?

Now the creator has gone inactive and hasn't been around for for 4 days.

Question from someone who might want to start a couple of magazines/communities: Is being away for four days long enough to be considered inactive?

No, it shouldn't be, many people have commitments and as long as there is a mod active then the community is being covered.

This is the second post I've seen on the matter today and it's disappointing that we are already seeing people trying to assure they are the King of their little domain.

I was tired of these politics in Reddit and I'm not eager to continue seeing it here.

I just want someone to add a proper description. I'm sorry if that's me trying to become a king of some little domain.

People really ascribe the worst to things sometimes.
