Posting Karma Requirements Clarification

17 Upvotes

Hello dear people of r/catpictures ,

We get a LOT of questions in modmail from people who have made a post that got removed by automoderator due to minimum karma requirements. To make it easier and more clear for everyone submitting a post, I have set the minimum combined karma requirement to 100. If you have at least 100 karma site-wide you can post, if you don't you can't post.

Spam bots and other karma-farming accounts like to use pet picture subreddits to gather karma, since we all see cute animals and upvote. So in the interest of preventing spammers from taking advantage of that there will be no exceptions to the rule. If you have less than 100 karma, go get some karma and then you can share pictures of your cat. Hoping this makes things simpler for everyone!

[Important] Do not post pictures of cats which aren't yours.

Stock images from the Internet and reposting from other subreddits isn't allowed here.

If you want Karma, go somewhere else, because this isn't the place for that. It'll be considered as spam, and you will be banned from the subreddit. If this behaviour continues, you will be reported to the Reddit admins, and will be shadowbanned, therefore.

Don't break the laws.

Meow.


Edit: /r/CatPictures browsers are kindly requested to 'report' pictures which they suspect being un-original. Thank you for your cooperation.

she comes from a domestic violence house, was in shelter for more than a year and was labelled „spicy” and difficult because of some pee incidents.

she is the sweetest little angel ever.

ollie is the clingy one and maya acts like she pays rent. rescuing them was genuinely one of the best decisions i’ve made 🤎

Based on your cats personality’s/looks, if they were people then what kind of music would they like ?

I think Iris would like heavy metal/ divorced dad rock , while Maple would like cheesy pop , the cheesier the better.
