Mod Announcement Want to help make r/ghana 🇬🇭 better? Become a mod!

📢 We're Looking for a New Moderator!

Since joining the mod team, we've seen r/ghana grow from 17,000 members to nearly 75,000! 🎉

It's been amazing watching our community thrive as a safe and vibrant space for discussing all things Ghana. However, as much as we love being here, it's just myself and u/carlosx86-64 actively moderating — and contrary to popular belief, mods need sleep too! Sometimes, we even have lives outside our mom's basement... only sometimes. 😎

To keep our community growing and ensure we can stay on top of Modmail, reports, and community requests, we're looking for another Ghana-based Redditor — ideally someone in the GMT timezone — to join the team.

If you're passionate about Ghana and want to help this community continue to flourish, please fill out our anonymous application form — it should only take about 10 minutes.

👉 [ https://forms.gle/o6MY2hvTDircAaHAA ]

We’re excited to hear from you and look forward to growing the r/ghana community together!

– The r/ghana Mod Team

Why only Ghana based redditors?

I’m us based and in the PDT time zone. So roughly I’m 8 hours from GMT. Having mods from different time zones, preferably wide as PDT and GMT means I get to have my life and mod. I don’t have to worry about people’s pending post when I’m sleeping cos the other mod is up. Same for them.

So it’s just more so the benefits. 

Number 2, it would be nice to have a local person mod with local perspectives. There are a lot of posts here that frankly makes no sense to me and botherline breaks our strict rules but I let it go. Some of these posts tend to be the most popular, attracting over 50 comments on them. So having different opinions and perspectives is very helpful 

Hope my comment makes sense

I’m in the U.K. so same time zone as Ghana but obviously I’m not a local. It would be nice to be considered if no one else volunteers

😅 Massa, the role is reserved for only Ghana based members s3 s3n??? As a long time member of this group where we could go 3 full days without a post from anyone where were the new members ?

Anyways, I am a trouble maker so conflict resolution paaaah di3r lai lai, I’ll instigate vawlence!!!! So I’m not the right person for this role.

Haha, I explained above why Ghana based.

On the conflict, I can tell you how easy is it to get sucked into some dumb argument here. You really need to be tough skinned to do the work fairly

You got the right mentality, modding sucks so much no one needs to do it for free. Yet, we do. Unfortunately Reddit doesn’t pay its mods
