Moderators Message: Election Period Moderation
We are down to the last weeks of the election period and we are seeing a lot of activity around this event. A lot of healthy sharing of news and opinions. Also some problematic attacks and activity. We wanted to post a reminder about some usual rules and one election period special rule.
Please remember our usual rules about civility towards each other and remember it is also not okay to insult voter bases. For example you can hate on QP or ARF, but not on QP voters or Dashnak voters.
Special election period rule: For a couple of reasons we are not going to allow "hot take" posts during this period. You can share your hot takes in the comments all you like, but if you post them, they will be removed. We are doing this because 1) We have had too many already and 2) We have seen that too many people asking "What do you think of party X" are actually not interested in what people think and are trying to manipulate people.
Along those lines, no misinformation, obviously.
And finally, as always do not discuss moderation in the sub. If there is a problem, you can simultaneously report the comment/post and you can message the mods here: https://www.reddit.com/message/compose/?to=/r/armenia - There is a TON of activity in the sub so please give us a moment, we are not able to keep up sometimes.
AS AN EXCEPTION to the no talking about moderation in the sub, you may ask about it in the comments of this post here.
That's about it. Let's keep this the best place to have a civil and intelligent discussion about Armenia.
Thanks!
