November 2016 /r/pics transparency report

Hello everyone!I don't have quite as much to write about this month, so lets get into it! It was a busy month for us in November, and we introduced a few new things you should know about.Title GuidelinesArguably the largest change /r/pics has seen in months, if not years, we have reshuffled our rules slightly and introduced new title guidelines.Far too much for me to get into here, here is a post to read up on those changes: https://www.reddit.com/r/pics/comments/5bqai9/introducing_new_rpics_title_guidelines/New civility rulesRather quietly, we also changed our rules on civility on the subreddit. The change was more of a re-word than anything else, and nothing has vastly changed in how we moderate the subreddit.The new wording is:We enforce a standard of common decency and civility here. Please be respectful to others. Personal attacks, bigotry, fighting words, otherwise inappropriate behavior or content, comments that insult or demean a specific user or group of users will be removed. Regular or egregious violations will result in a ban.This is a much stronger change compared to what we had previously, much more specific and defined than our previous rules.And, well that was the big stuff. We gave all new mods silly flairs, including myself, and some smaller stuff.Thanks for sticking with us!

First ever drastic drop.Reddit admins made 18 actions this month.Woah there. We can explain. 2 were from admin /u/karrdian misclicking (ignored then unignored reports)The remaining 16 were a collosal admin fuckup that caused no damage, just some unfortunate button pressing required 16 comments needing approval (they did so right away). Thanks to reddit for communicating all these mishaps to us and fixing their own mistakes.Received no takedown requests
