MODERATORS: Automod is here!

As this community grows automod will be more and more important. We've already seen some OC creators stop posting because of rude comments. This along with it's general usefulness has pushed us to implement an automod solution.

We have implemented basedcount's lemmy-automoderator

It has the capability to moderate:

comments
posts
and make custom ! comment commands

The automod user is @automod@lemmynsfw.com

How to add automod:

as you'll see later in the wiki, the automod has to be manually set as a moderator of your community
Message me and I'll login and comment on a post in your community.

Edit: I've added automod to just about every community I could find. If your community doesn't have automod, or you make a new one, please message me and I'll add automod to your mod team

Once the comment is made, appoint automod as mod, and Read the wiki to learn how to add rules to your community.

- Thanks for brining that to my attention. I added a slut filter, clearly it wasn't working correctly
  
  In the future you can just message me directly
  
  Thanks for responding.
  
  I was unsure where it was happening. On my client. Globally among all Lenny instances. At the local Lenny instance. And so on
  
  I’m not familiar yet with all the admin / settings/ help features of Lenny yet.
Has anybody actually had any success adding rules to automod?

I don't see any automod activity in the modlog.

I tried adding a rule to gonewild and it says no such community exists...
- Did you give it the full name with the @lemmynsfw.com ?
  
  edit: you shouldn't have to do that
  
  the automod can be finnicky with empty white space though
  
  this is an example of a rule that should work:
  
  { "rule": "comment", "community": "gonewild", "match": "pizza", "type": "exact", "whitelist_exempt": false, "mod_exempt": false, "message": "Your comment has been removed because I don't like pizza", "removal_reason": "Said the word 'pizza'" }
  
  Thanks for clarifying. I have a few follow-up questions:
  
  How to make a rule that requires a certain phrase in the title? For instance the below rule excludes anyone who puts a gender tag in the title, but I want a rule that only allows posts which have a bracketed gender tag.
  
  { "rule": "post", "community": "gonewild", "field": "title", "type": "regex", "match": "[.*]", "whitelist_exempt": false, "mod_exempt": true, "message": "Your post has been removed because you have not included a tag such as [F], [M], or other tag in brackets your post title.", "removal_reason": "No gender tag in title." }
  
  Secondly, how to remove a rule once it is in place?
I hope this is the right place to ask about this but the word “removed” in italics is everywhere! Like the word that is the opposite of day is spelled ‘n_removed_ht.’ It’s insane and annoying but I don’t know the origin of it.

Is it my client app? Is it lemnynsfw.com? All the different original posters cannot possibly be coordinating this.

Surely somewhere someone has noticed this nonsense and is working to fix it?
