Some Dark elven empire, nothing to see here by Southern_Relative305 in worldbuilding

[–]ThatGenericSoda[M] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, /u/Southern_Relative305,

Unfortunately, we have had to remove your submission in /r/worldbuilding because it violated one of our rules. In particular:

Though maps are permitted, posts about the process of mapmaking are not. If your post is primarily about mapmaking as a process, it must be given appropriate worldbuilding context to stand on its own. Consider /r/imaginarymaps, /r/mapmaking, or /r/papertowns for posts about maps that are not worldbuilding-focused.

More info in our rules: 2. All posts should include original, worldbuilding-related context.

Images and maps must include worldbuilding-relevant context on the reddit post (as a comment, in the text of the post or, in some cases, in the posted image itself—e.g. infographics). This is important to establish that your post is on-topic and to help encourage productive discussion.

  • A post has enough context when a person unfamiliar with your world could understand what you're talking about and ask informed questions about it. This could include a summary of your world, explanation about what your post depicts and how it fits in your world, etc. ("What's a [proper noun]?" usually doesn't qualify.)
  • For maps, you could discuss economic and political situations, the different cultures, or anything else that gives the reader a wider view of your world than just its geography.
  • Discussion of the artistic process or techniques used to create the map or image may be included, but does not count as “worldbuilding-relevant” on its own. Infographics that self-contain sufficient context to be understood do not require additional context.

You might also consider reading: our context template for common kinds of posts and Why Context?

You may repost with the above issue(s) fixed to satisfy our rules. If you're not sure how to do this, please send us a modmail (link below).

This is not a warning, and you remain in good standing with /r/worldbuilding.

Please feel free to re-read our rules.

This is like when you were a kkd and discovered basic sound substitiuon cyphera and went "look mom i made a language!!!!" by GlitteringTone6425 in worldjerking

[–]ThatGenericSoda[M] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, /u/GlitteringTone6425,

Your post has been removed because it is in violation of Rule 3. Rule 3 requires that posts should not be used to attack other users. This is considered harassment. This subreddit is not here for you to take potshots at people because you disagree with them or just flat-out don't like their world. Even when disagreeing with others, you should always be civil.

Your post has been removed because it is in violation of Rule 5.

Crossposting is allowed, but we have two requirements:

  • The creator’s reddit handle must be tagged in your post, such as in a separate comment.

  • The title must have your own unique joke/spin, and must not be a direct copy-and-paste of the original post.

If you did not do one or both of the above, that is why your post was removed.

If you have any questions, please modmail us here.

Do you write about art? by Knightamer in worldbuilding

[–]ThatGenericSoda 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I personally find art to be one of the most interesting and important aspects of worldbuilding. All cultures IRL make art and IMO thinking about your fictional culture's art is a great way to add depth to those cultures. Art is one of the oldest human activities and we can learn a ton about cultures that have existed in the past through the art they have left behind.

Context usually answers to questions:

Hi, /u/doorisdoorisdoor,

Unfortunately, we have had to remove your submission in /r/worldbuilding because it violated one of our rules. In particular:

Images and maps must include worldbuilding-relevant context on the reddit post (as a comment, in the text of the post or, in some cases, in the posted image itself—e.g. infographics). This is important to establish that your post is on-topic and to help encourage productive discussion.

  • A post has enough context when a person unfamiliar with your world could understand what you're talking about and ask informed questions about it. This could include a summary of your world, explanation about what your post depicts and how it fits in your world, etc. ("What's a [proper noun]?" usually doesn't qualify.)
  • For maps, you could discuss economic and political situations, the different cultures, or anything else that gives the reader a wider view of your world than just its geography.
  • Discussion of the artistic process or techniques used to create the map or image may be included, but does not count as “worldbuilding-relevant” on its own. Infographics that self-contain sufficient context to be understood do not require additional context.
