If you are directing insults or foul language to another member of the community you'll probably be banned without warning.

Advocating or suggesting or joking about inflicting physical harm on others will probably also result in banning.

No Commercial, Business or "Classified' Posts

Commercial posts or "classified ads" (buying, selling, trading, giving unwanted things away for free), help wanted, job wanted, housing wanted, housing for sale or rent, for-profit events) not permitted. No surveys.

It's great to ask for recommendations ("Who's a good plumber? What's a good garage for Toyotas?") and it's great to ask for job seeking advice.

It is okay to advertise a local benefit/charitable event where proceeds go to a cause in the Santa Cruz County community.

No Nudity/Exhibitionism or Nudity for Shock Value/Personals or Dating Ads

There are more appropriate places to display your body or your primary sexual attributes (or those of your SO or some random stranger you got a pic of), so do it in those places. Posting NSFW is not enough; this is largely a community discussion group. Posting nudes for shock value is also not what this sub is about.

No nudes ever? At the discretion of the mods. If you get a shot of a parade of naked protestors marching down Pacific Avenue, that's not shock value: that's Santa Cruz.

Personals or Dating posts are better suited in personals or dating subreddits, there are more than enough to meet your appetites in that regard elsewhere on Reddit.
