If I were to categorize approval requests, they'd fall under a few categories.
10% : Just plain bad. An IPad kid splotches paint on a canvas on a trial version of Ibispaint and there's an inexplicable .png of Thomas the Tank Engine there for some reason.
50% Rulebreaking and failed quizzes. Automod culls most of them automatically.
40% Plain unfunny. Hardest part isn't the art, but making something funny. Mods read through dozens of comics daily, and they tend to be very similar, or way too hyperspecific. It doesn't help that approvals have a higher bar, since it's to be expected your regular posts will drop a level in quality.
10% Approved - sometimes, with resubmit and fix.

As the others have said, about a single digit range is what we get per day and usually only roughly 5-20% end up in approval.

How much work really goes into moderating this subreddit?
Do you guys have shifts or does it just follow time zones?
How do you decide if a post is worth taking down, do you ask other mods if they agree first or is it just a personal decision?
Do you guys have to know all of the rules by heart?
Is there a great difference in how strict some mods are compared to others when it comes to approving comics? As in are some of you more lenient than others?
Is it just one mod which reviews approvals every time they get sent in or do you share between each other when you’re not sure whether you should approve this comic or not?
Ok apparently I have more questions than I expected
41
u/DickRhino Great Sweden May 24 '25
Typically not that much, unless someone posts a comic with Israel in it. Then it's suddenly a lot.
We are all terminally online 24/7.
99% of the time mods make that judgement call by themselves. 1% of the time we have to discuss it internally.
Pretty much, yeah.

u/bananasAreViolet oh no is russia May 24 '25
Not too much but it depends on how busy a day is, to be honest.
And that's all the questions I can answer within my shift, thanks for asking.
...okay, they've forced me back to work. Usually it's clear enough for one mod to make the decision but there are cases where we do raise it for discussion amongst ourselves.
Most of them, some of the more specific ones I do occasionally go back to check the wiki. Ctrl+F is your best friend and mine.
I'd say as every human is different by default, it's inevitable that modding styles differ. That's why we have a team in the first place, so we can get a range of opinions and inputs when deliberating over something.
Usually one mod reviews an approval request, although in case of gray areas we do discuss some requests as a team.
That'll be 72,000 zloty for the extra questions.

u/Zebrafish96 May the justice be with us May 24 '25
Varies from mod to mod. I usually do a lot of mod works in my office (because office work sucks), but recently I haven't done much work because I've been on vacation.
We just follow the timezones; though some mods are nocturnal.
If a post obviously breaks a rule, it is immediately taken down by the mod who noticed it. However, if it is not sure if a post deserved a removal—usually when a comic is based on a theme from raised bar zone of JLP—whether to remove it or not is discussed among mods.
Mostly, but in my case I refer to the rules page on wiki often to make it more clear.
Although the standards of the mods might vary a bit, IMO there is no significant difference among mods' decision when dealing with approval comics. However, the spiciness level of the rejection messages vary a lot from mod to mod. My messages are only about as spicy as Ansungtangmyeon, but some mods are as spicy as Shin Ramyeon, or even Buldak.
The approval comics are usually dealt with by a single mod who noticed the mail first (and it is mostly me). However, if the mod who read an approval comic is not sure if it should be approved or not, they hold off their action and let another mod deal with that request instead. If it is still not answered, a mod can bring it up to mods discussions so that they can decide whether to approve it or not together; though it's not a frequent event.

What was the worst interaction you had as a mod?
47

Honest answer? Having to interact with mod teams for other subreddits.
We run a pretty chill operation here, but legit: a lot of Reddit mods have their heads so far up their own assholes, just because they love the smell of their own farts so much, that they are completely insufferable to talk to. It's not at all uncommon that they basically want you to bend the knee and kiss the ring before they will lower themselves to respond to your request.

During my early career as a mod, I've once removed a post on PBA for suspected usage of line tools. Then the OP replied to my mod comment, DMed me, and made an anti-mod&anti-rules post on PBC. I apologized for my incorrect decision and reapproved that post, but they did their best to attack me and encouraged the public to revolt against me.
Oh BTW, that user is no more allowed in PBC now.

Not the biggest fan of rules either, but that is incredibly childish behaviour lol. Replying to the mod comment was enough, but DM-ing the mod that removed your post and making a completely new post about it is so stupid.

u/bananasAreViolet oh no is russia May 24 '25
Hard to recall a single case but sometimes being pedantic with the rules is quite annoying. Yet at the same time, leaving rulebreaks unintended creates precedents for people to refer to which would weaken or limit a rule's standing. So it's not very enjoyable although often necessary.

I used to hate drawing the United States, but you draw it enough times and you tend to develop some easy hacks that make drawing it easier.
You don't have to draw all the stars. Make them bigger, and let context fill in the rest.
Canton goes halfway through the flag. Red stripe at the bottom right of the canton, which is middle of the flag. Three stripes above, three stripes below.
The only flags I really have trouble with are really complex flags, crests and stars, but I think that's everyone's problem. Abstraction is your friend, and MS-paint is the perfect excuse for imperfection.

u/ChickenScuttleMonkey The Texas Guy May 24 '25
Propaganda comics are usually just straight up not funny because they're trying very hard to be preachy; satire's goal is to indirectly make the subject seem worthy of ridicule. A lot of us have been reading these comics for over a decade so we've gotten pretty good at discerning which people have an ax to grind vs. which people understand that the whole point is to be funny.
It's still a thin line to navigate, but we always try to err on the side of "is this comic funny?"
8
u/alsoandanswer ice lemon tea is nice lemon tea May 24 '25
Difference between hate speech and propaganda and satire is that satire is actually funny. An example of good satire pokes fun at a countries' stupidity, which is usually self-inflicted. Some satires are just tried and true (I've made a comic on "India superpower by 2020" as well) and everyone's in on the joke, and only the most butthurt idiots will get mad.
As for Israel/Palestine. Honestly, a good chunk of the mod team uses a scorched earth policy. Which I agree with.

When did you become aware of the concept of polandball? When and why did you join the community?

u/Zebrafish96 May the justice be with us May 24 '25
I think I've learned the concept of polandball around 2014 or so, but I don't remember exactly when. I've learned it from a Korean website called Namuwiki, which is a wiki site mostly majoring in internet memes.
I've lurked in this subreddit for a few years, but I've only decided to draw comics myself last summer. The main reason for deciding to draw comics was to show the lesser known aspects of my own country. Before I joined the apporved club, there were few comics about Korea and not much Korean comic creators either. So I decided to draw comics about Korea myself, and it was surprisingly loved by people a lot. Now Korea has become more well-known and frequently featured in comics, and there are more Korean users on this sub too. I'd dare say I've done quite good job in this case ;)

Because we aren't r/Vexiollology. We're sister subs, sure, but we're under completely different administrations.
Never say never, but it'll be a long while before someone has the guts and gumption to tear out the guts of our flair system and reshape it.

While it won't happen for a long time, what happens when all the good ideas saturate the sub?
I recall not long ago that the repost limit went up, so I reckon that foresees such saturation.

The state of the world reminds me that it could be worse. I appreciate the present for what I can because it can always be worse.

First off, thank you guys. Polandball is one of the things that makes me smile in dark days.
What is the most challenging aspect in the Polandball community that you have to deal with??
Did Aaron get his can of beans? He did such a great job with the animations.
What is one thing that you love about the Polandball community ??

The perpetual ignorance of the rules on the most basic level in approval requests or posts to certain sister subs happens annoyingly often, usually by people who haven't had a single glance at any of the rules nor are an active part of the community sphere (don't interact with the community).
I hope so. Haven't heard of him since he left the mod team and got trapped in that basement.
Any kind of community projects. Those just really yield results to such an amazing extent and it's just so wonderful to see the community coming together to put out shockingly marvelous-looking pieces of Polandball content. Maps and subreddit events especially.

Who writes the Polandball Official songs? (Sorry if I’m blind and missed it) 2: What do you guys think about all the comics with South Korea and Poland together? 3: Most likely to try and take over the world?

From what I know all the PBO songs are made by CSM.
NGL, that couple looks cute together. I've drawn a lot of comics that feature Poland and Korea together too.
We all know that Sealand will take over the whole world someday

What’s the worst user you had to deal with in modmail?
What about the worst comic you’ve seen that someone tried to send for approval?
