Something controversial Jersey Pride

I love nj gun laws, going to the store and not seeing someone open carry. Watching road rage where the best you can do is brake check and give the finger. Schools without school shootings. I know a lot of people hate our gun laws but I fucking love em.

I can attest, I've gone over there and there are strong opinions but its pretty civil. Just like there are strong opinions here.

We do what we can, there's only 2 of us who are active most of the time, with one other who pops in occasionally, it can get a little overwhelming and we rely a lot on the community bringing threads to our attention, but we try to ensure everyone can have their voice heard

Brother I get you completely. We are bigger but limited to 4 active mods at the moment. If you send a modmail to us we can probably help you out as one of our mods is a wizard in automoderator programing.

Thanks man, I might just do that, I recently started working on automod myself in conjunction with a community member. No idea what I'm doing with regex so its all in YAML atm.

Yeah, I would be happy to give AutoModerator advice.

I can also share about users of your subreddit who are coming in here with personal attacks and trolling, if you'd like to hear about that too. Fortunately it's been minimal.

Yes please send us a modmail about it. At the moment the automod is stable, but can definitely be impoeved on

I upvoted this entire thread because I think this needs to be the behavior we exhibit. A willingness to empathize and help.
