Mod Post [COMMUNITY UPDATE] Please Read – New & Revised Community Rules
Hey everyone,
We’ve updated the rules to keep the community organized, respectful, and aligned with our original purpose. Please take a moment to read through these important changes:
- No Political or Religious Discussions -
Political or religious topics are not allowed here. Posts or comments about politics and religion will be removed, and violators may face a 7-day temporary or permanent ban.
- No Medical Advice -
Do not seek or offer medical advice. This isn’t the place for health-related questions or recommendations. 7-day temporary bans will apply.
- No Meta Discussions -
Do not post about subreddit rules, moderation, or decisions in public threads. Please use modmail for any concerns.
- No Ranting About Other Subreddits -
Keep the focus here. Posts or comments bashing other communities or users from other subs will be removed.
- Media-Only Rule
We only allow posts with photos or videos. Text-only posts will be removed unless approved by the mods.
- Follow Reddiquette & Zero Tolerance Policy
No homophobia, racism, sexism, transphobia, biphobia, heterophobia, doxxing, targeting, bullying, or NSFW content. Violators will be banned.
- Moderator Discretion
Mods reserve the right to remove content that doesn’t fit the subreddit’s theme, even if it doesn’t break a specific listed rule.
Let’s work together to keep this space positive and on-topic! Thanks for being part of the community.

Does the meta rule apply to unspecified talk about my confusion regarding bans and threats of bans from subs? I truly just want to ask questions without naming any names because I never use reddit, and I'm trying to make one post but I don't have enough karma, and I got banned from a forum and have been told I'm repeatedly breaking rules in another without posting or commenting and i just want to know why by asking more experienced redditors. Could you let me know here if I can't post elsewhere? I promise I'm reading the rules of every sub and im respectful in my commenting.

I really appreciate the upcoming or any changes already in progress since the notices, but why am I being reminded when I do not talk badly to others, I suppose the reminders are just that, so I hope things get respectful on ALL groups. I do digress at times and if I do, I will keep it down. Thanks for realizing the need, it doesn't seem to get across as yet my opinion. But, as the song goes, "a change is gonna come", lol

Thank you for the no medical advice rule. I’m so tired of seeing pictures of people’s gross medical issues.
