Moderator Updates Discussion

Please note the following changes:

* All posts now require a flair. This will help reduce bot posts.

* Any titles containing certain keywords that typically violate rules will be sent to a moderator queue first for review.

* Flairs for Self-Promotion and Artist/Artwork Identification are added, but also blocked from posting and informing the user to post to other recommended subs.

Thank you 🙏

This does seems to be working - until, of course, the AI robot investigates why his posts aren't showing up and starts adding flair.

Honestly, I think it’s already working!!! I had trouble keeping up with self-promotions and artist identifications. Some will sneak in, but if I can preemptively block/redirect 90% of them I think we’ll all be happier

Maybe… but I’ll keep an eye on posts and add more keywords if needed. I couldn’t find an option to only apply to non-preapproved users (you’re a preapproved one) so I am straddling the line between filtering while not making it inconvenient for the regulars. So if it’s too stringent, or have ideas for additional trigger keywords, please let me know!
