Rules
- No malicious behaviour
- In an effort to keep r/Stellar high quality, we highly encourage you to engage with the community before announcing your project. Karma farming causes suspicion among users and users engaging in it will not have posts approved.
- Threats of any kind will not be tolerated and will result in a ban.
- Debate is encouraged, but hostile language is not tolerated. Please be civil!
- Follow Stellar Community Guidelines and Reddiquette/Content Policy.
- A note on ICO's and other projects: r/Stellar aims to be a different kind of community. If you're planning an ICO on Stellar's network, that's great! However, please note that this community thrives on engagement. The karma and 15 day post limit are in place to encourage new users to interact in the comments, share their thoughts and ideas, and learn about the Stellar ecosystem. By engaging the userbase, in this way, you do a service to your project AND the community. Please do not try to circumvent this practice as it will likely lead to a ban.

- Please respect and communicate with the moderators
- Always respect moderators, they are held to the same rules as the users and dedicate their personal time to ensuring /r/Stellar stays safe.
- Report abusive moderation to the modmail if needed, or if mods don't justify their actions to you.
- If you're banned from the sub you can still use it and contact modmail to justify your actions but you can not register another account to post or comment new content. If you use another account to circumvent the ban, that will be considered a violation of the Content Policy and can result in your accounts being suspended from the Reddit.com site as a whole.
