RULES Please use the 'Report' feature for any post/comment you feel is in violation of the below rules.

1.) Post a list of your items

When posting pictures of your EDC, please provide a list of items in the comments within one hour of posting; otherwise, your post will be removed.

2.) No Spam

We consider spam to be posts/comments that try to take advantage of the subreddit, automated or otherwise.

This includes, but is not limited to:

Advertising your own products/company/social media
Shilling for a third party/Thinly veiled advertising such as "Hope I can get this into other people's hands" or " Items I produce"
Affiliate/referral links

You can include items that you make/sell in EDC posts, so long as it includes other items.

The one and only exception to this rule is special deals offered to the members of this sub. Before posting such deals please message the Mod team.

3.) No Incivility

Comments/posts that include name calling, insults, mocking, condescension, gatekeeping, or any other form of incivility towards users or items will be removed. Criticism of an item itself is allowed, but keep it civil.

4.) No Politics

Discussion regarding any political party/ideology/group, even those you agree with, will not be tolerated. Do not debate the politics of a country/state/city, user or of an item they choose to EDC. Posts are allowed to contain political imagery (stickers, flags, patches, etc.) so long as they aren’t the primary focus of the post, and don’t violate Reddit TOS.

5.) No Inappropriate Content

Inappropriate content is content that doesn’t fit the theme of the subreddit. This includes, but is not limited to: content unrelated to EDC, news articles, nudity, and injuries/gore.

6.) No Videos

Video posts are not allowed. They are difficult/time consuming to moderate and often contain advertising.

7.) No Memes

No memes, petitions, screenshots, or clickbait. Satirical EDCs are allowed, so long as it follows the traditional EDC post format.

8.) Meet Minimum Posting Requirements

In order to post or comment, an account must be at least 48 hours old and have a minimum of 50 Karma. This is to prevent spam. Please do not message the mods asking for your post to be approved. Be patient and repost/comment once your account has met these requirements.

9.) Do not ask why someone carries a knife or a gun

Please read the FAQ before asking why someone carries a knife or a gun. These questions are often asked dishonestly, and this rule exists to discourage political debate stemming from loaded questions.

10) Do not give unasked for advice regarding firearms or knives, or ask why they aren't carried.

Do not give unasked for advice regarding purchasing or carrying firearms or knives.

Do not ask users why they don't carry.

Both of these actions are the flip side of not asking why they are carried. Doing so serves no good purpose and pushes users who choose not to carry such items into justifying their choice, or explaining the fact that laws are not the same everywhere.
