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.

Remember the days when Reddit would go down at least every month or so?
And that was the reason to start selling awards and beginning of the Enshittification of reddit.
Only back then it was presented as, ‘hey people of reddit, we have a problem, can you help us out?’ Instead of, ‘Fuck You! Pay Me!’ like the API bullshit.
I remember there was a TIL that was about how Reddit didn't make enough money to pay for its servers so people started encouraging others to buy gold and to gild comments.
Then someone said it would be great to see a progress meter that shows whether we paid enough to pay for reddit for the day.
It was the golden age of reddit, if you'll pardon the pun. Unidan was still around. Celebrities were engaging with the community. It was wild. Users wanted to see Reddit succeed and reddit proper wanted to help its users.
It's sad to see what Reddit has become.
I’m still justice for Victoria and what they did to the AMA sub. That damn near killed all the cool engagement the site had. After that it just became endless shitposts with no real quality. It’s sort of the same on Lemmy, but with no corporate overlords. So I have that at least.
Victoria was GOAT. She made sure that AMAs went smoothly and that celebrities knew what they were getting into.
But I'm getting ahead of myself. Let's talk about Rampart, this new movie starring Woody Harrelson.
Something something hell in a cell.
