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.

For me, just to fuck with reddit as a whole.
It's a fine line though. Spez is too much of a wimp do the dirty work, so we're dealing with whoever is running the modcodeofconduct account.
That means we can't go too far, not without risking someone that's just trying to get through their day unnecessary stress via abusive language.
It takes a bit of dancing to walk the line between calling them on the shit they copy/paste in, and not going after the flunky that's on duty.
There's still some mods that have given up and keep working for free because they don't realize that reddit as we knew it is dead. They think (and this is from talking to some of them) that the communities will just keep going like they were, and that the community itself is worth bending the knee.
They genuinely can't conceive that the community could exist anywhere else. And they're partly right because there's always going to be the bulk numbers that are too damn lazy to leave. They've signed up there, they're used to things, and fear change.
What the mods that are clinging to the idea of the community don't seem to get is that the real community that provided good conversation, good posts, and were doing more than scrolling and waiting for a chance to drop a one liner they don't realize has already been made five times, have left.
They think that the ones still there, whining about just wanting to scroll and fuck around, were actually part of the community. That thinking is wrong. I've seen it. The ones that are left behind, that are now attacking the mods that opened back fully, were never useful. The guys that mattered are here, or on discord, or have just fucked off entirely. I say guys, but it's meant as a general term, not a gendered one.
So, my ass is going to keep throwing up pictures of pigs and calling them spez until every alt I have is burned. If they haven't banned my mod account by then, I'll burn that fucker up too.
It's pure, stubborn, spiteful resistance just for the sake of saying fuck off to spez and any shitty capitalist drek like him that think they bring value.
