Since I won’t be active given events coming up soon, post below if anyone wants to take up moderation. Ideally I’d prefer if you mention any experience you have and why you’d want to do that,

I wouldn’t mind helping out on this sub. I’ve moderated in other communities on Discord in the past, though I don’t really want to say which ones because I’d rather not have my main Discord account get identified on here. I do have a question about this sub though. Which systems count as “retro” for the purposes of moderation? Or is there no hard line at the moment?
Approved!
For the purposes of “Retro”, I’d say anything pre 7th gen works as a decent baseline, so PS2 or prior. We probably could put up a poll to see if 7th gen would be fine since I’m on the fence about that, but for now 6th gen or prior is generally the baseline to work with, might have to adjust the description for that as well.
That makes sense. What about aftermarket titles like Demons of Asteborg or Grimace’s Birthday, or those weird AtGames cartridges that only work on AtGames’ Firecore-based Genesis clones?
Those are tricky but I’d say those could be fine, as long as its on whichever system is relevant, so a Dreamcast/Switch/PS4/Neo Geo game, the DC and Neo Geo would be permitted but obviously Switch and PS4 less so, sorta like NextGenRoms though they might be on the loose side.
