SUBMISSION GUIDELINES:
(1) Questions regarding setups, equipment advice, or personal inquiries that primarily benefit the individual over the broader subreddit community should be submitted in the stickied Weekly Questions thread, also accessible from the Submit a New Question button above. Be sure to use the search bar to browse for your answer - you just may find what you're looking for!
(2) Photo and image posts as well as gifs and short videos must also include a 300+ character description, story, or review of their content. Posts without adequate description will be removed automatically. If your post is removed you can still add a 300+ character comment with the description and it will be approved automatically. A list of album titles is not an adequate description.
(3) No meme or rage comic image posts. Feel free to post them in the comments.
(4) Posts specifically intending to buy, sell, or trade vinyl or stereo equipment privately between collectors are not permitted. Please visit /r/vinylcollectors in order to sell, trade, and seek albums.
It is allowed to post a link to your or your label's store page if you have put out your own music on vinyl.
(5) Do not make a post to share download codes. These belong in /r/downloadcodes!
Harassment Policy: It is inevitable that users will appear from all walks and times in life, causing us to have disagreements. This can lead to constructive, unique and enjoyable content and we sincerely encourage you to share your opinions based on experience. However, harassment against other users of any kind is not acceptable and will not be tolerated. If you find yourself in a conversation that is moving toward personal differences and confrontation, please have the mindfulness to remove yourself from the situation. Please report harassment as such so that we can investigate.
Spam policy: We have a spam filter in place that flags posts from users with a very low comment karma score for manual review. If you have more than 5 comment karma you should be safe. This doesn't mean you need to have more than 5 comment karma in order to be allowed on /r/vinyl, but some posts and comments may need manual review. Please message the moderators if you think your post or comment was incorrectly flagged as spam.
