feels good bros

>>8347 (OP)
it's a nice feel

>>8347 (OP)
check'em

I pick up litter around my place every week at least.
I dislike litter enough that it motivates me even if people keep on doing it. Simple as.

The catalog is ALWAYS worse than the queue. ALWAYS.

>>8494
>>8493
How do so many users not even bother reporting? There is so much HORRENDOUS garbage every day on some slower boards, even, yet the queue is practically empty every time? :PepeHands:

>>8520
if all you see is garbage, maybe you don't know what garbage looks like?

>>8533
Reminds me of a parable:
Two fish are in a tank. One says, "You man the guns -- I'll drive"

>>8347 (OP)
honestly the best janny feeling, up there with compliments and thanks from the mods and other janissaries

Because as a user, moderation barely seems present. You constantly see shit and NSFW threads on SFW boards with 200 replies. Also, some users probably assume jannies/moderators browse the boards and remove things as they pop up, rather than spending most of their moderation time responding to reports.

>some users probably assume jannies/moderators browse the boards and remove things as they pop up, rather than spending most of their moderation time responding to reports
They are right to assume so to an extent, I usually quickly look at the queue and jump to the board to moderate, but I am a single board janny so can't tell much on this

>>8545
Most jannies probably just respond to reports, which is why "clearing the queue" is such a feel. A crowded queue just means a bunch of threads have been sitting around so long, that anons have reported it. Before I started jannying I never bothered reporting for the reasons stated above.

>>8543
That feels good.

>>8548
I report any stupid shit I see. First thing I notice when I started jannying is that as I respond to reports, they're actually pretty few, but knowing my board, there's garbage cropping up elsewhere, so I pretty quickly took on some more proactive approaches.

Scrolling through the catalog to see if there's any glaringly obvious shit threads, peeking in on the kinds of threads typically attracting certain 'trouble', and having some words and phrases bookmarked on archive sites as to more easily find certain shit which doesn't get reported, especially certain habitual shitposters.
I don't have the time or energy to go through those routines every day, but I'll always respond to reports multiple times a day, and every now and then do a "medium" sweep.

The occasional hour(s) long sweep involves plain strolling through every thread in the catalogue to make sure there's no stupid shit going on which isn't reported. This of course isn't realistic on a fast board.

>>8549
if you're looking to make a difference on unreported threads on a fast board, might i recommend sorting by creation date? oftentimes you can get in to handle a shitty thread before it ever even gets a chance to get off the ground

The other day I had 0 reports for a whooping 15 minutes after clearing the queque. 15. Straight. Minutes. Can you believe it? I thought time had stopped.

>>8533
I know EXACTLY what my boards' garbage looks like because fucking nobody was doing anything about it, hence why I applied. /o/ has a long standing manual transmission vs automatic troll. He was never dealt with prior to my jannying.

>>8554
Look pal, just because Americans think they prefer "aвтoмaтичecки" (whatever that means, probably some crypto-Russo-Soviet-KGB-FSB garbage propaganda term) that does not mean that they are trolling, their opinions just happen to be fluoride enriched.
I've only driven stick and I'll continue to drive stick like my fathers before me. Now if you'll excuse me I'm late to pick up my kid from his football practice.

>>8550
I always sort by creation date.

feels great. like how light yagami felt, if he wasn't an insane murderer.
