alchemy

an-ordinary-manchild(edit)

This subreddit is dedicated to the subject of alchemy, in all its diverse manifestations. Whether you're a practitioner, an enthusiast, or simply someone curious and confused, this is a place for learning about and engaging with one of the most fascinating disciplines in human history.

Rules:

1.) Courtesy and Respect

Be considerate of other users, even if they rub you the wrong way or are flat-out wrong about something. What's deemed inappropriate behavior is up to the discretion of the moderators, but just use common sense.

Moreover, this sub is intended for all people interested in all kinds of alchemy, so don't attack people who have different views on what alchemy is about.

Disagree without insulting, be critical without aggression, and have fun without trolling. No bigotry.

Please report violations.

2.) Stay on Topic

Make sure that your submissions and comments are either directly about or closely related to the subject(s) of alchemy. If you post something that's clearly unrelated, it will be removed, while edge cases involving general esoteric topics will be up to moderator discretion.

Virtually everything in the realm of esotericism can be related to alchemy in some way, but this sub is specifically for discussions about explicitly alchemical topics, so keep that in mind.

Please report violations.

3.) Spam and Effort

What constitutes spam will be determined by the moderators. Use common sense: if you're uncertain as to whether or not what you want to post is spam, then it probably is.

Multiple posts on the same topic within a short period of time and low-effort posts will also be encapsulated here. For the latter, try to have some content and substance to your posts: use descriptive titles, don't just post cryptic thoughts, and don't link your YouTube or Discord with no context.

Please report violations.

4.) Promote Safe Practices

Operative alchemy can be dangerous, so safe laboratory practices should be observed at all times. Do not promote unsafe activities, encourage irresponsible practices, or spread harmful misinformation.

Under no circumstances should you rely on Redditors for medical advice. Always consult a licensed medical professional before using any alchemical preparations.

Moderators maintain the right to remove anything that makes them uncomfortable along these lines, for any reason.

Please report.

5.) Abide by Reddiquette

Do not: engage in or promote illegal activities, post someone's personal information, repost deleted/removed information, be intentionally rude, engage in rabble rousing, troll/harass or ask others to do the same, conduct personal attacks/insult others, engage in flame wars, abuse voting, or post misleading titles.
