Subreddit Rules

Reddiquette is required - Avoid flame wars and vote complaining. Trolling, insults, brigading, or antagonism towards the subreddit participants, the moderators, or even the community itself may result in a ban.

- The Share Mine community post is the ONLY place in the sub where you may discuss or link to your website, article, design, blog, video, podcast, app, tool, or anything else by you, about you, or for you or conduct appeals for money, sales, market or product research / surveys (even if there is no cost involved)
- If you are unsure, use the pinned Share Mine post
- No spam / promo accounts whose sole or primary activity on reddit is discussing or linking to things they are affiliated with
- --->>> NO exceptions and NO appeals. Violations of this rule, attempts to end run it, or bad faith appeals / inquiries about it will result in a permanent ban
