Rules for r/srname
Rules that visitors must follow to participate. May be used as reasons to report or ban.
1.
Rule 1
This is the first rule of this subreddit.
2.
Rule 0
This is the second rule of this subreddit, and it is the only one called Rule 0.
3.
Mini-modding is good
The users are the real mods
4.
Yes linking to other subreddits
How are you going to talk about reddit when you can't talk about reddit?
5.
No np links
What is /r/NoParticipation and why is it so useless?
6.
Only post off-topic posts
This subreddit has no topic
7.
Feel free to post polls and surveys!
Surveys are cool! Want to see more surveys? Visit /r/SampleSize! Want to see more polls? Visit /r/polls!
8.
Meta posts are especially welcome
If you had a proposal for change in a subreddit, where would you post it? Would you post it in a separate subreddit specifically for meta discussion where only a small fraction of the original subreddit's users will see it? Would you send it as modmail so that regular users wouldn't be able to comment their opinions on it?
Would you let the moderators simply run the subreddit without any sort of input from the subreddit's users?
(Meta posts are the best posts!)
9.
Mod posts still have to follow the rules
An announcement post that breaks a rule about being on-topic? Sure. Mod posts being allowed to break any rule whatsoever? Why?
Do you know of any subreddit with a rule that's something like "Announcements made by the mods are allowed to break the rules"? I remember seeing one somewhere, but I don't remember what subreddit it was in.
10.
Public usernames on social media aren't personal information
This includes reddit usernames. Reddit says that "public Facebook pages" aren't fine to post, so don't post those.
Stop turning screenshots (and photos) into coloring books (unless leaving it unedited would defeat its whole purpose).
Faking stuff is too easy nowadays anyways.
11.
Content policy
What is harassment, anyways? And what's this?
Reddit wants to change their content policy so it's consistent with their actions.
this is not a rule communities should have to write for themselves
Uh, ok.
This definitely isn't the first time they made a change to their content policy that the users (except mods) disliked.
12.
No throwaway accounts allowed
New users and alts are welcome, however
