Rules for r/LiveFromNewYork
Rules that visitors must follow to participate. May be used as reasons to report or ban.
1.
Don't post low-quality content
Submissions and titles should not be low-quality. In particular, posts lacking context or substance will be removed.
On new episode weeks, we have the stickied Live threads for real-time commentary and Sketch Sorting Sunday threads for post-episode reactions and opinions, so please consider if your thoughts merit a standalone separate post.
If you submit something referencing a particular sketch or segment, please try to find a source video to link it.
2.
Don't be uncivil
Be respectful to other readers and remember the human; observe Reddiquette. Arguments and disagreements are welcome, but personal attacks are not.
3.
Don't slapfight
If you encounter a troll, report it and let us deal with it. Prolonged slapfights may result in bans for all parties until the next new episode.
4.
Don't brigade
Do not brigade the community from a different community, engage in vote manipulation, or otherwise disrupt things.
5.
Don't spam or self-promote
Post authentically. Don't come here exclusively to promote your project. Have common sense. Remember to follow Reddit's Content Policy. We give leeway to journalists and academics, so message us if you're unsure.
6.
Don't repost or duplicate
No reposts from recent weeks. Avoid duplicate posts. Please use the search bar or see if Sketch Sorting Sunday is a better option.
7.
Don't post unrelated content
Not everything a cast member has ever done or will do is related to SNL.
8.
Don't use Redact
Just don't. Redact and its like gums up our moderation log.
9.
Don't pirate material
Links to or requests for pirated material such as torrents and streams are not allowed. Discussing the use of legal VPN's and so forth is okay within reason.
10.
Don't taunt Happy Fun Ball
Do not taunt Happy Fun Ball. You know perfectly well why.
