3 Month Update From New Mod (Tell me how we can improve!)

Hello investors! Just thought that I would give an update as to how things are going. ***Moderation*** We try to make sure that any rule breaking posts are removed as quick as possible. In the last 30 days we have removed 606 posts (up 220 from the previous 30 days). This is not done as curation of quality but simply removal of rule breaking posts. We can't be online all day so hugely rely on reports from the community to get notifications of rule breaking posts. Thank you everyone who uses the feature as you are actively making the sub a better place. It's far more useful than those commenting complaining about the post which gives it engagement and makes it more likely to been seen by others. (We might be looking to add more moderators to speed up time to remove but that will come in a future post so if you are interested then keep an eye out for it) ***New Post Flair*** We want this sub to be a place where beginners can post and be ripped apart by the more experienced investors so they can learn. The unfotunate outcome of this is that the quality of content on average tends to be sub par. In an attempt to make it easier to sift through and find the diamonds in the rough we have added a new post flair called "Detailed Investment Analysis". Automod will comment on any new post with this flair to remind of the requirements which are as follows: 1. A description of the company 2. An assessment of the moat (What protects against competition) 3. An analysis of the potential risks (Things that could go wrong: execution, regulation, disruption etc) 4. An estimation of intrinsic value (Ideally via a DCF but at least an estimation of future cash flows) 5. Other relevant information (Management and their incentives, industry cycles, debt etc) Please be aware that this is going to be completely manually curated so you may see posts before mods do that don't have all of these requirement. Please just report the post clicking that it breaks r/valueinvesting rules and choose the option "other". I will also be removing posts of the same company within 30 days unless they add substantial new information. Hopefully this will at least provide a place where people can come to the sub, sort by this flair and know they are more likely to find higher quality content. It should also give more views to posts that genuinely put time and effort in as often those posts barely get seen. If you have a post from the past that you think meets these criteria then feel free to change to it. I will be removing the ability to edit this flair in the future but if you miss out just message me and I can change it. ***AI*** We know that AI posts are an issue, we are doing what we can to try and address them but it's just not as easy as people imply. Sometimes it is obvious and we can remove them but not always. Even AI detection programs are bad at knowing as you can post the same text into multiple and they give different answers as to how much is AI generated. We have created the "AI-Written Content" flair in the hope that people use it but if you have any other suggestions then let us know as we always welcome ideas. ***Weekly Megathread*** Nobody seems to know that it exists...Instead of removing them, I have started simply locking posts along the lines of: "What is your favourite value pick right now?" with a stickied comment reminding people we have a megathread. The more people use that for casual discussion and stock ideas the less likely we are to get the low effort posts. Please everyone use it, even if you just upvote it so it get's more awareness!
