It's Time for c/Europe to get some rules, and we are also looking for additional Mods in the short future :) (feddit.de)

Hey all, this community has grown a lot lately, so moderating it has become quite time consuming. As I'm studying and also working a side job helping hands would be very welcome. I guess we should also have a discussion about Rules so that Mod Decisions aren't looking arbitrary. So let's have a discussion about the rules we want in this community, and if we are done with this, we will look for new Moderators. (Suggestions about a good process for this are also welcome)

With best regards

I wouldn't reinvent the wheel and borrow r/Europe rules as a starting point.

Maybe do a little bit more proactive moderation to that community. r/Europe threads could sometimes go off the rails and had cleanup many hours later - I think it's OK to lock down before that happens (is locking posts a thing on Lemmy?).

Another approach is to keep rules simple and do a complete philosophy and rule walkthrough separately. I penned this monstrosity for polish subreddit back in the day (linking to archived version since I left since then and it got some meh updates in the meantime).

Yet another approach is to have a philosophy page like Tildes does. It's clear enough that you disallow assholery and bigotry but community like this definitely needs submission rules on top anyway.

Thank you for your input. Yes I think I will take some of them, but I'm also a fan of @Blaubarschmann@feddit.de 's approach to start with a basic ruleset and expand them as necessary.
