First and foremost:Thank you for making this sub the premiere place to talk about cats on the front page of the internet. We, the moderators, are working extremely hard to listen to all of your concerns and address them and that's what this mod-message is about.We have heard your complaints about mourning posts. Depending upon how you look at things, they can be good or bad threads. The moderation team has collectively decided that because more people favor these threads, than dislike them, we are going to continue to allow them.That being said, we're actively looking for a way how to make them not visible for people who do not want to see them (which is understandable). The problem we're running into is how to make it compatible with both old and new reddit because the way the site operates on the moderator side of things is so different between the two different site versions.That being said, however, we are actively investigating this issue for folks.Another "problem" we have been seeing as of late is an uptick in the number of "Name My Cat" threads. As with mourning posts, we moderators have noticed your concern about these posts. While we always see an uptick of these posts in the summer and spring seasons (for obvious reasons), we saw a large number of them this year which irritated several users. These numbers should go down during the winter season and hike back up again during the next summer season.We're actively investigating how to hide these posts as well, in the meantime, however, we won't remove them because, again, more people seem to enjoy the content. That being said, we'd recommend if you need help naming your cat, to visit /r/NameMyCat/. Seriously. Go give that subreddit some love. It has, as of the writing of this post 3,139,661 less subscribers, and who doesn't want more purrmachines on their reddit front page feed? :]You folks are awesome and I just wanted to give everyone an update as to subreddit developments.IF you have any questions, feel free to ask.Keep reporting karma farmers by using reverse image search folks and reporting them. It helps us, the mod team out far more than you know.Thanks again,Minifig and the modteam of /r/cats. A few things to note about the subreddit...
