MODERATORS
I notice men are having a hard time knowing they aren't supposed to comment here - I wonder if the sidebar language is ambiguous. I know it says "Women only", I wonder if something more explicit might help?
e.g.
It's possible this wouldn't help at all, but it might be easier to scan and be more explicit in case someone does notice the sidebar?
Guess I wanted to see what others thought.
Yep I've noticed that. Funnily enough lots of the ones that don't realise are hostile, which is a huge coincidence ๐ . I've added it more visibly on the rules hopefully that helps.
I personally have experience moderating a community designed for one specific group of people. My advice is use heavy handed moderation, some people may call you a tyrant or a mod abuser but thats whats needed to keep a community like this clean from those who would rather speak over the memebers.
That's a good tip and yep, I'm ban heavy. They can downvote me and say what they want, but I'm NOT allowing misogynistic shit to harm members.
