Rule 1: All post titles except for meta posts should be just plain "hmmm" and nothing else, no emotes, no capitalisation, no extending it to "hmmmm" etc.
I will introduce more rules later and when I finish doing that I will make an announcement post about that.
For overall temporary guide check out the rules here: https://www.reddit.com/r/hmmm/wiki/rules/
I won't be moving all of them here but I will keep most of them.

Idk, I'm using Boost and that's what it shows
Yeah you've even got a little fuchsia M inside of a circle for MODERATOR next to your name now
If I were you I'd start banning everyone to teach the mod a lesson about fucking around and finding out lmao (sorry everyone) start with the most prolific posters and commenters for maximum effect. When their Community is a shell of what it used to be because there's no approved users anymore they might regret it.
Hey I guess I should probably update my CV to include "Internet moderator" now...
Kidding aside, I don't want to disrupt the community and the members just to get noticed. I don't even know how I got to be a moderator in the first place, and I'm not sure a mod can just pick anyone and make them a mod without that person's approval.
you'll be needing this:

With such communities, there is barely anything to do as a moderator. Once every year, someone will whine at you because another one is "rude". You just ignore him. Maybe an advertisement or two to remove. That's all.
