June is coming soon, and we are looking for the next subject for our monthly challenge series. What would you like to paint/draw? Is it a subject? A certain colour palette? A scene you always wanted to try? Please share your thoughts, reference photos, ideas...
We have a repeating pattern. The user registers a new account and posts a sort of promotion/ad (trying to find the boundaries?). The only place they ever post is this sub. We remove it and ban the user, and they never even post anywhere else on Reddit, just stop posting completely. We feel targeted. It happened twice 2 weeks ago, and twice this weekend. What could this be about? We have Evasion Guard installed.
Then I tried to finish the background, and everything went south. 😔
So, I am stuck, because after trying Duolingo, I realised that there is one skill I have never developed. And it is thinking about what I want to say and saying that. It can still happen in writing, though. Simply completing sentences in writing won't make me communicate my thoughts, if you know what I mean. I think AI fails here. Do you know any app that helps with this? If there is none, I accept teacher recommendations too (I have Suomen Mestari 1).
Hi 👋🏻 If I want to visit Finland and want to learn some words to identify food in supermarkets, is it OK if I study kirjakieli, or should I try puhekieli (edited the typo) instead? Sorry for the dummy question, but I am so excited to visit, and I have discovered the difference between the two.
I added the reference photo too.
So, we have decided to find a new top mod for one of the subs we moderate. I posted in r/adoptareddit and r/needamod. What to watch out for if I don't want to leave it in the hands of a bot? I have asked for a restricted status, because we didn't want to leave and let the sub become a bot farm. Has anyone gone through this? How did you decide who to give away the sub?
Inspired by our kind member, u/Ottaro_Chabo's idea, we are excited to introduce a monthly theme. Each month, we will feature a sticky post with a freely downloadable image that illustrates the theme. This month, our theme is “Spring in the City.” The image is just an example. The second image is for tracing or coloring purposes, as we welcome artists of all experience levels. Feel free to bring your own ideas to life. Share your reference photos, sketches, works in progress, and finished pieces.
While watercolor pencils are our subreddit’s main medium, you are welcome to explore watercolors, inks, gouache, or other watercolor-like wet media. Some adventurous members even experiment with tea or coffee and add touches of watercolor pencils, perfect if you are looking to try something new.
If you share reference photos, please make sure they are ones you are happy for others to use as inspiration. We love seeing how creativity spreads and evolves here, and we can’t wait to see what you come up with. Have fun, and please add your work below. 👇 😉
We have installed Hive Protector for the first time, and based on those reports, there are some users who are quite active in certain NSFW subreddits. I have no problem with that, people do what they want, but we have an SFW subreddit, and these people interact with younger people or simply try to farm some karma. Should I remove users based on what they do in other subs to protect young people, or is it better to leave them alone because they behave normally in this sub? How far do you go when you moderate?
So, we started to have people in the sub who only want to sell something or farm karma. We are giving second chances to people who apologise and promise they are going to go by the rules, but in reality, they only repeat the behaviour. Should we start to permaban people when we see they ignore the rules for the first time, or is it worth giving second chances? What is your experience with this?
