Hey yall! I’ve modded lightly for a while now, and I’m eager to learn more about the advanced tools beyond those introduced in the mod bootcamp another or two ago. I primarily use an iPhone and a Mac.
- I haven’t yet read the automod guide, but I recall trying to figure out the automod and having a lot of issues actually getting it to show up and work. 😬 I’d super appreciate your best ELI5 guides!
- Where could I find out info on making content visible on the sub’s home page? I created our wiki, but I don’t see a link to it, nor do I see a way to link it as I see done in other communities. (Our wiki has a TON of resources to help our community members, it’s a pretty essential piece of the sub I’d like to get more out in the open!)
The subs I mod are focused on a pretty severe cousin condition to OCD, and the condition is particularly dangerous and destructive. It’s extremely common for folks to post asking for help or advice, so I really need a strong set of tools to automate pointing posters in the right direction (mainly our wiki, where I have a growing list of resources available) so they can learn more about the condition and the various opportunities to work towards recovery. I mention this only to really emphasize how important it is to me personally that I deeply understand the modding process.
And for the record, if you find yourself struggling with picking your skin (picking anywhere… fingers, nails, scabs, feet, groin, wherever) or pulling hairs out (again, hairs from anywhere) to the point that you’re causing consistent damage and you’re suffering, but you’re struggling to stop, you may want to look into Body Focused Repetitive Behaviors, or BFRBs! They suck, they’re neither sexy nor fun, but there are tons of resources to help you decrease the damage and work towards suffering a whole lot less. And you are EXTREMELY not alone… it’s estimated about 1 in 20 people have a BFRB!
Even if you don’t have a BFRB, feel free to ask questions in the sub. Our community is active and happy to chat! :)
