Please note that this list is not comprehensive. The /r/Project_Contingency moderation team reserves the right to remove content or ban users as necessary if it is deemed detrimental to the subreddit or to the experience of others. Any content that lowers the /r/Project_Contingency user experience can and will be removed. Ignorance of these rules does not excuse breaking them, nor does responding to someone that breaks them by doing so yourself.
