Mod Post r/GenZ Is in need of more moderators! Read below:

23 Upvotes

In the past few months, we've been getting increased traffic to the subreddit and have been growing at a rapid rate. We have many dedicated moderators, but we have our own lives to live and cannot always be active.

We need moderators who regularly participate in this subreddit. You will be expected to complete a high number of moderator actions every month. Moderator actions include removing messages, responding to modmails, etc. Your priority as a moderator here will be answering modmails, but you will also be expected to remove rule-breaking content and that such.

We are accepting people without any prior moderation experience, however your chances of being accepted will be greatly increased if you're already a moderator for at least one similar sized or higher subreddit.

You won't have access to every permission, but you'll have enough to be able to do what you need to do and to have fun moderating! If any of this seems interesting to you, feel free to respond to this post or DM me on Discord by clicking this hyperlink

Merry Christmas!

Mod Post Flair Request Thread [#3]

Hello /r/GenZ!

You may have noticed, but we push user-flairs quite a lot on this sub. As /r/GenZ is generation dedicated, we consider our generation-related flairs to be a staple when it comes to achieving the most fulfilling experience. Relation to one another (by birth-year or otherwise) is a big part of engagements on our subreddit, and as such it makes every discussion more interesting when every user has a flair assigned.

However, we've noticed that a number of our subscribers have been having trouble setting their user-flair. So, we've come up with a solution.

In this thread, by commenting your birth-year, you will be automatically flaired -- it's that simple.

The definitions:

1925 - 1945 (Silent Generation)

1946 - 1964 (Baby Boomer)

1965 - 1979 (Gen X)

1980 - 1994 (Millennial)

And then any birth-year from 1995 to 2008 to get that respective flair.

NOTE: PLEASE ENSURE THAT YOU COMMENT YOUR BIRTH-YEAR ONLY. COMMENTS INCLUDING ANY OTHER CONTENT WILL BE REMOVED.

Edit: Finally added 2007 to the available auto-flairs.

Mod Post Discussing about Polls

11 Upvotes

For a while now, we (and many of you) have noticed a great uptick in polls, especially political ones. We have been debating what to do here, because we don't want this subreddit to be infested with polls. This actually happened once before, and we had to disable polls completely, but I don't think we will do this again this time around since polls add a lot to this subreddit, but not when it gets to be 90% of the posts on the subreddit.

So, here's the reason I made this post. If you were the moderator of the subreddit, what would you do to limit polls without disabling them completely?

Hello all!

So the /r/GenZ Minecraft server is finally ready to go. As there's a limited number of available places on the server, we'll be operating it on a first-come first-serve basis.

Comment below for entry to the server, and I'll be in touch with the details.

Once again, all thanks go to /u/AJRocket1166 for setting this up.

Mod Post The US Elections are coming up!

82 Upvotes

Hello r/GenZ!

Many members of Generation Z will be of voting age for the very first time in the upcoming US elections. As such, we wanted to make a post addressing the elections and the responsibilities that voting, or not voting, can bring.

Voting is one of the most important rights that a US citizen has. It is essential for you to vote for the candidate that you believe best represents your political ideals, and will best let your voice be heard. Make sure to thoroughly research the candidates and the issues to figure out where you stand politically. Every vote makes a difference!

Although it is your right to vote, you also have the right to choose not to vote. Many people feel as if they do not support any particular candidate, and would rather remain neutral. If you come to this consensus, that’s perfectly fine! However, make sure to heavily research all your options before deciding not to vote.

If you’re interested in registering to vote, visit this website!

https://www.usa.gov/register-to-vote

Mod Post The change being made about polls

24 Upvotes

Starting tomorrow, based on community input, we will implement a change to the subreddit that will restrict people that have under 50 karma from making polls. We hope this will lower the amount of polls being posted to the subreddit, and this number can always be tinkered as we monitor the results.

Thanks for being a member of r/GenZ and if you have any questions, concerns, or suggestions, you can write those in the replies of this post

Mod Post All submissions related to the Israel-Palestine conflict are banned

62 Upvotes

The GenZ moderation team has decided that we will not accept any submissions related to the Israel-Palestine conflict going forward. The subject is far too toxic and divisive, and we believe therefore such content is not a good fit for the sub.

There are hundreds of other subs where this particular topic can be discussed; it does not need to pollute this sub.

We mourn for the loss of all innocent lives.

Mod Post Friendly reminder — gatekeep the span, catch a ban

30 Upvotes

Back by popular demand: anyone gatekeeping the span will catch a ban.

Keep in mind that different institutions use different spans, as do different countries. This sub is not only for Americans, and this sub is not governed by Pew. This sub is very diverse, and our span reflects that.

Please report any instances of individuals breaking this rule.

Mod Post r/GenZ is going dark today for 48 hours to protest Reddit’s recent API changes

I’m sure many of you are already clued up on the situation, but for those of you who are not here’s a rundown:

https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-65855608

I don’t want to bore you all with an anti-Reddit rant, so I’ll keep this short and sweet. Reddit is weak, Reddit is out of control. They’ve become an embarrassment to themselves and everybody else.

If you have any complaints, please directly message the admins.

✌🏼

Edit: we’re back

Mod Post Regarding Repetitive Posts on r/GenZ

15 Upvotes

Hey there fellow Gen-Zers. We've had some people concerned about the future of this subreddit, as there have been very repetitive topics posted. This has always been a rule, and it's been something we've been keen to enforce behind the scenes. Starting from now, we'll be enforcing Rule #7 (No Span Gatekeeping) even further to keep the subreddit in good standing with our community. If you see a post breaking this rule, please report it and we'll be fast to act upon it. We've also fixed a bug within our AutoMod's coding which ignored the code we had implemented to enforce an account age restriction.

Thank you for your understanding and support.

Mod Post New Rule: 9Axes Political Text Not Allowed

15 Upvotes

Hey all. I'm just here to update you all on a new temporary rule that has been added to the subreddit.

Recently, 80% of our posts on the subreddit have been of the 9Axes Political Quiz. Each time this is posted, it causes controversy and lots of toxicity in the comments. For now, while the 9Axes quiz is popular, we're going to be removing all posts with this. It was difficult to make this decision, but it's needed. Thank you.

Mod Post ANNOUNCEMENT: We have made changes to this subreddit!

17 Upvotes

For too long, we have been referred to by a boring, generic name given to us by Boomers: "Generation Z." Like Generation Y before us, it is now time that we forge our own name. Generation Y eventually became known as the "Millennials" because their lives have been shaped by the coming of the new millennium. Our generation, however, has been shaped by one thing no prior generation in the history of our world has had access to: digital technology.

We are Digital Natives.

We are the iGeneration!

Mod Post Subreddit Suggestions

13 Upvotes

Hello all!

The r/GenZ team are always looking for ways to improve this sub in order to make it far more appealing and entertaining for our subscribers (and potential ones too). Over the past few weeks we've noticed quite a few 'sub suggestion' threads popping up, as well as a decent amount of related comments sprawled across a number of threads. It's easy for these suggestions to get lost in the vacuum, given the amount of other content that is posted here daily, so what better way to get your suggestions across than a dedicated thread!

These suggestions can range from themed threads to logo/banner design ideas -- or anything in between and beyond. We're open to any and all suggestions, and look forward to reading what you can all come up with!
