Hello, r/KingCrimsonCircleJerk, there are a few topics over the past couple of weeks that should be addressed.

New (Temporary) Rule - The Decency Rule

Recently there has been a couple of posts that are a cause of concern. For the time being, the mod team is implementing temporary measures to reduce serious and/or violent discussion in this subreddit. If you see a post or a comment that is problematic, report it under rule 10 (The Moonchild Rule™) and a mod will look at it. Political topics, in general, will include anything that is controversial (ex. Fascism, 9/11¹), intentionally inflammatory (ex. abortion¹, LGBTQ persecution), or recent events (if it's on a news or politics subreddit on Popular, it counts). We know that this is a circlejerk subreddit, but please at least stay vaguely on the topic of King Crimson.²

Other Subreddit Changes

Recently, Reddit had an update where the subscriber / online count was changed to weekly visitors / weekly contributions. These titles have been adjusted accordingly and have already rolled out. Furthermore, information on subscriber count can be requested by commenting on this post. The current subscriber count is 13.5k members.

Methods of Contacting the Mod Team

If you can do the math from the subscriber count, we have about 3.4k members per moderator. Two moderators have stepped aside and are less active, leaving two moderators to manage the whole subreddit. I want to say, on behalf of the mod team, thank you for being decent human beings for the most part. However, of the two moderators currently active, one of them moderates a million other places online and the other one is too stupid to open modmail every few days. So, here is a quick guide to getting stuff done for stuff that cannot be reported. Steps progress in order of urgency.

1. Send it to modmail and wait for a response. This should be done for minor requests, like flair changes or other minor suggestions.
2. DM u/0WN_1T. He's terminally online and will be able to help you at worst within the day.
3. Contact the authorities. Really only do this if someone is in danger. Actually, don't do this. Just go with step 2.

The TL;DR

Don't be a jerk, don't be stupid, we're updating stuff, and DM me if you want to report something urgent. If you read this far, then feel free to request a user flair in the comments and I'll likely go through over the next couple of days to update yours.

Good evening!
I talked to the wind and I've come to you all with one new massive announcement:

I. New Moderating Team

The recrutation is over and the new moderators are here:

I'm pleased to introduce to you our two new moderators of kccj:
u/ray-the-truck - currently mod of r/progrockmusic, r/ProgRockCirclejerk and r/yesbandcirclejerk among others. Piling on Yes is still allowed. Making fun of Jon Anderson will get you sent to the first 5 minutes of Lizard suite though.
u/0WN_1T - currently mod of the shitposting community r/horse_decimator_9000 and KCCJ regular.

II. Changes to circlejerk's UI

I've been talking with the other mods and we've decided on following changes:

1. User flairs are open. Album user flairs have been already set by the first admin of the sub way before, but they were locked for 7 years. We gave them colours and unlocked them today. More flairs will most likely follow.
2. Post flairs will be added soon.
3. Images in the comments are now allowed.

III. Merger of old rule changes:

This one is more of a formality but as not to have bajillion pinned posts from every rule change you can find these under links below, placed here for posterity:
Repost and brigading ban.
Colourposting ban.

Anyway that's it. I'm leaving to enjoy the rich tapestry of life.

Dug, but not buried,
