Hello, it's been a while! Lots of stuff going on behind the scenes in the AlbuquerqueHookup subreddit. abqhkupmod here to relay some updates about upcoming changes.
First off, we've been working on consolidating the rules of the subreddit. Instead of 11 rules, they have now been reduced to 5. Here is the jist of the newly consolidated rules:
- Moderators have the ability to remove harmful content based on community feedback
- Spam is easy to spot, avoid responding and report
- Keep comments positive and respectful, hateful comments will be removed
- Craft thoughtful and engaging posts for better results
- No content selling allowed, exception for local verification with specific criteria
We feel that the changes and reduced number of rules will make things easier when it comes to following them, and hopefully will simplify some of our responses for posts & removals.
Next, karma has been something that has come up a lot. This is account-wide, so what you do & say in other subreddits can affect this one as well. We would hope that you are participating in discussions, and hopefully lifting others up & being positive. Having a positive karma score will allow you to be able to post and comment on posts in the AlbuquerqueHookup subreddit.
We also want to talk about low quality posts. Sadly, this occurs mostly on the male posting side, although there have also been posts that fit this description from our female and trans folks. Please note that low quality posts typically don't get the best results. Instead, funny or engaging post titles, and thoughtful poses, good lighting, and attention to quality in your pictures can help you stand out and make a stronger impression. "HMU", "DM me", etc. typically don’t attract the type of attention you're looking for. Posts will be scrutinized and removed if we deem them to be low effort. This is to continue the high post quality that everyone that uses this sub would like to see & engage with.
As always, we look for your input for suggestions & changes. We are all users of this sub, and we want to make it a better place for everyone using it to get what you’re looking for. If you have any ideas that you feel would make the sub better, please suggest them in a comment in this post. If you feel a post removal is in error, then please contact us through modmail. But know that if your account has low karma or is new, that’s the reason why. =P
In the works: Flair and post title revamp. We will be eliminating MtF/FtM and just using T4M/F/A, etc. Also, for couples we will add MF4M/F/A. This will likely break posts and make things hectic for a bit, so we will give you a heads-up when this will be implemented. Post removal messages are in the works of being tweaked so that you will know the reason for them being removed.
