Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

I’m a long time redditor and I honestly still don’t know how /r/place works. Do you have to pay to place a pixel?
there is a timer. if you set a pixel, this timer starts new and its 5 minutes. after that 5 minutes, you can set a new pixel. but because other users also can do the same, its usually a huge sabotage against everyone. if you don't have a lot of friends who help you, bringing even a tiny picture on the board is impossible. i yesterday just tried to spell "lemmy" in a region where nothing was posted. took me almost 30-50 minutes to get the "L" done.. and then suddenly 3-4 users came along and killed all of my work. then i said fuck it and stopped trying.
its just too frustrating solo. so i stopped trying. i hoped when i can get the "L" and "E" started others would maybe get the idea and help, but nah. there are more people who love to sabotage others on purpose for the lulz. so meh.
Thanks for explaining this. I can finally understand how it works.
The last r/place, the one before this, my sub coordinated with at least half a dozen other subs - borders, overlaying images etc, basically collectively defending a few sub's patch of images. At least a few hundred people collectively constantly reworking and defending from takeover, it was hectic.
subs would have pinned coordinating post, we'd cross comment in bordering image's subs, a few users who were relaying messages back and forth to discord servers - massively coordinated effort even for small areas and extremely satisfying making it to the end.
Cool, so now we can go and make anything. What about a flag? Where are you from? /s
you're welcome :)
