Reddit is launching the “Mod Helper Program” to reward moderators who offer helpful advice to other moderators, along with an updated moderator help Reddit is rolling out updates to its moderator support features, but has been slow to launch moderation tools that were offered by now-defunct third-party apps.

The Mod Helper Program is a tiered system that awards helpful moderators with trophies and flairs. Reddit users accrue karma by receiving upvotes and awards, and lose karma if they receive downvotes. The program rewards moderators who receive upvotes on comments in r/ModSupport

    I help moderate one of the larger subreddits (r/futurology) & its striking how much the recent issues have demoralized people. We track inactive Mods monthly, where there used to be 5 or so a month, for the last two months its 25 or so, which is the majority of the mods on that subreddit.

      I used to mod /r/DnDMemes, and yeah it decimated the morale of the team, even pre-bans.

      Did you find out where they went? I know a lot of my online friends went to tildes.
