Looking for moderators for c/chess (sopuli.xyz)

Sorry for the non-anarchic post. Since this is currently the largest chess (?) community in the Fediverse, I guess I could give it a try.

c/chess doesn't have any active moderators. The creator of the community, @ajz, removed their account in March 2022. At the moment, the community is still small and doesn't need much (or any) moderation, but this could change if the Fediverse becomes popular. I would be willing to help with moderation for some time, but I'm not really the mod type, and don't have too much free time either. So if anyone is interested, comment here or send me a DM.

tl;dr: Holy hell, new call for mods just droped

Wait. You're recruiting mods from this place? That's like giving a machine gun to a chimpanzee.

Give a million monkeys computers, one might end up googling en passant.

Is there an Elo requirement?

[–] jalda@sopuli.xyz 4 points 1 year ago

/anarchy 161660 elo
/unanarchy Not really. The mods aren't expected to provide analysis and comment of the games (although if you want, you're more than welcome). The idea is more to eliminate spammers and keep the conversations civil if/when the community grows, and maybe organize megathreads for tournaments.
