Admin outreach and next steps

What about it?

#What happened? Yesterday afternoon we received another, final, admin warning about our marking ourselves a NSFW community. This was done initially to protect minors from viewing potential goblin genitalia, and reinforced through overwhelming community support via polling. #Is Goblin Mode still happening? Kind of, but we've slipped on enforcement, and at this stage the floodgates have opened on standard posts, so we welcome more goblins, but won't be goblin exclusive at this stage. #Why does this protest still matter? Didn't Reddit say all the mod bots can stay? Reddit says a lot of things. What matters is what's happening, and what's happening is that we have lost functionality on the following bots [Botdefense](https://www.reddit.com/r/ModCoord/comments/14rkdpl/botdefense_is_wrapping_up_operations/), our main spam prevention method, just announced they were going to sunset operations, as " Investing further resources into Reddit as a platform presents significant risks, and it's safer to allocate one's time, energy, and passions elsewhere." This greatly affects our ability to detect and remove spam posts in a quick and automated manner The creator of Flairhelperbot, our primary method of quickly and efficiently removing and explaining post removal reasons, made the choice to turn off their bot network for similar reasons. This has a huge impact on our ability to moderate, as now when we get a pile of posts that need our input it will take much longer to remove and explain the reasoning. I'm working on seeing if I can use toolbox to do similar, but at present if you don't see a reason why your post was removed please (after reviewing the rules) modmail us and we'll do our best Finally, we were in talks with r/transcribersofreddit to add DnDMemes to their list of subreddits with accessibility for the visually impaired. However with that team announcing they are shutting down, that's clearly a road that's now been shut to us. All of these shutdowns directly cite the changes in API policy as the reason. #So you're turning the sub SFW again? Sort of. Our main concern is still that NSFW content will be posted and visible to minors, our deep concern will be when we turn the community SFW the previous posts that were turned NSFW by default will now be visible. For the time being we'll be using automod to mark posts as NSFW, and reviewing old posts to make sure nothing got missed. **We'd really hate for explicit imagery to be visible to minors, or to ads aimed at minors be right next to explicit content, if such an event happens please screencap it and let us know** Starting shortly we'll also remove our posts from being visible to r/popular and r/all as part of our greater protest efforts. #Will you be changing your protest methods or sending out another poll? Yes, just give us a little time to recalibrate and regroup. There's still a non-zero chance the Admins will just de-mod the whole team, so if that happens a poll will be rather useless lol. If you have suggestions please let us know! Thanks!
