reddit.com moderation tools

I’m a moderator on a couple of the subcommunities on reddit.com. I like reddit and being a mod a lot, but that doesn’t mean I don’t need to put up with my fair share of trolls.

Here are a couple tools I’ve found that make it a little bit easier to see what types of comments a user tends to make. These should help moderators and other interested individuals in figuring out who’s constructively contributing to reddit.

Reddit Score Card
Gives average comment karma per word of a user’s last 25 comments

AreYouATroll
Test to see if you’re a troll or not. (Alright, that part’s not accurate, but the percentage up/downvotes are useful.)

Reddit Comment Finder
This is a simple reddit comment finder script. It’s useful, but it doesn’t have many features, although it’s written in just 5KB of python, so it’s easily extensible.

Know of any other good reddit tools? Post them in the comments - I’ll add them to this list once I test them out.
