/u/porn was active here briefly, make a load of communitiess like /c/Boobs and has since not been on, leaving those communities unmoderated. I’ve messaged them about being added to some of them (like they offered), but no reply.
I think the larger communities, at least, should have more than one moderator to cover different timezones, being unavailable or disappearing. I assume that admins can add moderators to comms, right?

Hey. Just saw this post.
I’m a mod with that user on
Let me know if you want to mod these communities.
I’m mod of [email protected] with you already 😉
Oh yes, good. :) I haven’t been on here much, been modding on non-NSFW mainly.
I’ve contacted the admins, they’re now aware of the issue. They’ll try to contact @[email protected] themselves first before taking any further steps.
I’d be happy to try my hand at moderating one.
try my hand
I see what you did there.
Yes, the admins of this instance can add new mods but I think they should create a community for community requests to make it a clear straightforward process.
I also like the idea that the process is out in the open.
I would suggest that we just use lemmynsfw for porn and keep it off this instance.
That is, indeed, the instance where this post is located, funnily enough.
I’m sure slowly there’ll be enough mods. But very annoying that the user hasn’t been on since. I thought about starting a “bigtittygothgf” community but decided against it because I have no mods.
My point is that only /u/porn (or an admin?) can add another moderator to their subs, and given that they’re not on we already have popular comms without mods.
I think if you start a community here, you should at least add a few posts to get the ball rolling and then stick around to moderate and/or build a mod team.
I think for this you really need to rope in the admins to create a system for installing moderators to unmoderated communities. That, however, can only happen once there are enough active mods on the site to begin with, which will take time.
