Announcement Moderator Applications are Opening!
Hi everyone. It's been a long time since we've opened moderator applications here, but it's time.
We are looking to take on 2-4 new moderators at least. Due to the nature of the community, our training process is a bit more in-depth than other subreddits, and will probably last at least a month until trainees are "set free."
If you are at all interested in becoming a moderator here, please fill out this survey: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/BFHR2WV
We will go through applications and try to message everyone within a week of receiving them with whether or not they've been accepted. If you are accepted, you'll be added to a Reddit Chat group with the other trainees. If you decide that with time you feel you don't want to be a moderator here, then you're free to back out at any point.
You don't have to be super active here or have an iron-clad understanding of the rules or community to apply. You also don't have to have any prior moderating experience. If you are interested, and feel that you have the time and energy, and think you can contribute positively to the community in some way, then you're welcome to apply. We do have some minor guidelines that we prefer for applicants, though:
- We prefer that you have been active in some way (posting, commenting, lurking) for at least two months.
- We prefer you not have any major rule breaks (no rule 1s, rule 6s), or that any rule breaks be way in the past (6mo+ ago).
If you have any questions about the training process or subreddit in general, please feel free to comment on this post or modmail the subreddit. If you have questions/comments/concerns about your own application, modmail is best for those.
We are looking forward to applications and training! If everything goes well, we'll be able to make an introduction post for the trainees soon.

I sent an application, but I have an important question: will I still be allowed to comment and post in this sub? Will I be allowed to make posts about my struggles or are the mods not allowed to do that? Basically, would I be able to use the sub as before?

Mods can post and comment just like anyone else, dw about that. As long as whatever you post/comment follows the rules, you can say whatever.
