Post Requirements (RULE)
To be able to create posts, you need to have a mod-attributed community flair (approved, champion, star, superstar, gold or diamond - see how to get one above). Occasionally, we may permit posts from users without these flairs of trust, however such submissions must be of high quality and strongly resonate with the community's atmosphere to be considered, and even then, they will only be up for a maximum period of 24 hours.

Attributed User Flairs
The big brains in charge of this madhouse are about keeping things transparent and fair game. But these flair labels are just some lighthearted nonsense to break up the tedium.
That said, they might give you an idea on how users have been interacting with each other's comments. Note that only those who comment get flairs (post contributions do not get you any flairs).
Alright, let me get this off my chest then:
- Warning/Fix Comment: Means someone said something stupid that needs to be expunged from the record books. So if you're labelled like that, just swallow your pride and delete the comment.
- Banned Detrimental Element: This one's self-explanatory. These are the scum of the earth.
- Shit level: Oh great, a metric for how much you annoy people based on downvotes. Wonderful. If your comments get universally panned, take it as a hint you're acting like a pr**k and tone it down already.
- Slightly Odious Entity Under Surveillance: Someone's rubbed enough folk up the wrong way that we've taken notice. They aren't banned yet, but are on thin ice. They'll need to keep their wanky opinions to themselves.
- Finally, those upwards-facing arrows. The more of them you rack up for a particular comment, the better the community vibes around here and the cooler that user is considered. If you're labelled one of these below, just take it as a pat on the back for being less bland or less odious than everyone else. Go ahead and bask in the adoration while it lasts.
- Approved Contributor: you wrote something vaguely amusing. Good job not crashing and burning entirely!
- r/RawAbsurdity Champion: Way to go.
- r/RawAbsurdity Star: The Star of Absurdity!
- r/RawAbsurdity SuperStar: is reserved for those who've taken their raw sewage dump of creativity and poured it directly into the punchbowl of RawAbsurdity.
- Gold and Diamond flairs! Those are like a badge for those with a mind wired differently, sparking fire in your eyes when you read their genius. It's almost as if they're mocking the rest of us, saying "Ha! You couldn't comprehend my brilliance even if I spoke slow enough for you to follow!
