You're pretty much the main contributor to the community at the moment so that would be my first choice to be honest. That said, I'm not one to just throw people under the bus so I'd be happy to help as well - while I'm not posting as much as I'd like I am keeping an eye on all the communities I'm a part of so it wouldn't really change much for me (not like there's a ton of activity to worry about for now).

I'm not completely opposed to the idea, but I play a limited range of VNs (mainly mystery VNs and romance VNs aimed at women) despite sharing lots of news about all kinds of them^^ Having a second mod with a different perspective would help a lot with community-building I think, especially since this community was intended to serve a similar audience as the r/visualnovels subreddit, which seems to mostly like galge?
I don't think what you play should really affect mod actions as long as the rules are clear and one isn't planning to ban titles they don't like/care about but I agree having a variety of perspectives can be useful. As mentioned before, I'd be happy to help - I just don't think someone who's mostly lurking should be the one to take over.
OK, in that case I'd be willing to take over if you agree to help out!
I'm ready!
I am also mostly a duplicate of your perspective so I would not be too useful! I'll try to contribute whenever a VN drifts across my feed and I can share it though. You have helped me not be the only poster of [email protected] and I ought to pay it back.
Yeah it does seem like the mod is inactive. Someone took over one of the communities they moderate so I'm open to having this one being taken over by anyone who wishes to build the community too.
@[email protected] and I volunteer to take over as mods!
Done! Good luck on rebuilding this community!
Moooom look! I'm special!
Thanks for quick reaction.
