r/NewToReddit rules: what actually gets removed

Each rule below is paired with the way it is most likely enforced. Where the rules state a number, we quote it. Where they do not, we say so instead of guessing.

1. 1.Be kind, decent, polite, & respectful. SFW content only. Tag post NSFW if profile is 18+

   Enforced automatically

   * This community is a **safe space for everyone** * Engage in good faith; no trolling * [Reddit’s rules](https://redditinc.com/policies/reddit-rules) * If your profile is marked NSFW/18+, tag your post NSFW; we often check profiles in order to help, & extra warning is nice * We do not allow profanity, or adult content of any kind, including links, sub links, or descriptions. NSFW directory links are OK with clear warning * [Full rules](https://www.reddit.com/r/NewToReddit/wiki/rules)

2. 2.Post to ask questions about using Reddit

   Enforcement varies

   * All posts must be questions about using Reddit * This is not the correct place for venting, rants, complaints, inflammatory or loaded questions, debate, user polls, speculation, or suggestions for Reddit * Nor requesting subreddit recommendations, chat, intros, or mod questions * [See the full rules for details](https://www.reddit.com/r/NewToReddit/wiki/rules/)

3. 3.Please avoid asking questions from our common questions list

   Enforcement varies

   * Please do not ask about the topics listed [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/NewToReddit/wiki/rules/restricted-questions). Instead, please read [Our common questions page](https://www.reddit.com/r/NewToReddit/wiki/common-questions/). Only post if the answer to your question is not there * This list is subject to change * Remember we’re not Reddit employees, nor mediators, or a complaints department, & can’t help with suspensions, change the site, or change how other communities are run

4. 4.Post only once per 72 hours

   Enforcement varies

   * This gives everyone a fair chance to ask their question without it getting pushed down the page by someone with multiple questions. * If you already have a post and have further questions, please add them as replies to a [helpers](https://www.reddit.com/r/NewToReddit/wiki/index/helpers) or mods.

5. 5.All comments should be constructive

   Enforcement varies

   * We strive to be a welcoming, helpful, & understanding community * All replies to a post (parent comments) should be a genuine attempt to help the poster * All comments should be constructive, instructive, or an enquiry. (refrain from complaints, rants, inflammatory language, politics, debate, or speculation, & help users with Reddit as it currently is; imperfect) * Remain on the topic and follow the rules of each of our weekly threads when participating in them.

6. 6.Refrain from asking for votes or karma, naming free karma subs, or sharing how you are voting

   Enforcement varies

   * We discourage use of subs offering free karma, as participation in them may lead to bans. * You may ask about karma & earning it genuinely. Please read [our guide](https://www.reddit.com/r/NewToReddit/comments/p8t966/reddit_and_karma_explained/) for more information. * Please do not say who or what you are upvoting or downvoting. * Attempts to evade this rule may result in a ban.

7. 7.Refrain from sharing or requesting specific community requirements

   Enforcement varies

   * Avoid asking for or sharing specific community requirements * You may suggest communities to others, share where requirements might be found, & link to (not copy) our [new-user friendly sub list](https://www.reddit.com/r/NewToReddit/wiki/index/newusersubs) * This is so we are not sharing any information that other mods don't wish us to share. The subs on our list are there with permission. We wish to help new redditors as much as possible without causing any issue for other mods.

8. 8.Be as accurate and understanding as you can

   Removed by moderators

   * Please strive to ensure the information you are providing is correct to the best of your knowledge and tailored for new or inexperienced redditors. * Do not mislead others, or lead them into potentially uncomfortable situations, without adequate warning, joke or not. * If commenting with a guide from other sites or subs, please modmail first for approval. * [See the full rules for more](https://www.reddit.com/r/NewToReddit/wiki/rules/)

9. 9.Be considerate in negative situations (details below)

   Removed by moderators

   * If your content is about a negative interaction, only explain the situation objectively & ask your question without names of communities (subs/subreddits), users, or mods. The NToR mods will message if we require more information to help. * We are not Reddit employees, nor mediators. We cannot comment with more than generalisations about the actions of other mod teams. * General genuine queries about other communities such as how to post there are fine. * Modmail about our actions/policies.

10. 10.Promotions should be shared elsewhere

    Removed by moderators

    * No unapproved adverts or promotion at all. * You may post to ask for guidance about where on Reddit you may promote. * If your community has low to no karma and account age requirements, we invite you to modmail us for consideration to be offered a place on our new-user friendly subreddit list. [Guidance](https://www.reddit.com/r/NewToReddit/wiki/index/nufs-list-guidelines)

11. 11.Please avoid using Large Language Models (LLMs) here

    Enforced automatically

    * Answers produced this way are not accurate and may use old data. * We value answers from your own experience, in your own words, tailored for OP, and the more welcoming, friendly, and authentic tone you will have over LLMs. * We thank helpers with user flair and will not award this to accounts sharing bot generated content or who are plagiarising. * An example of an LLMs (Large Language Model) is ChatGPT. * [See the full rules for details](https://www.reddit.com/r/NewToReddit/wiki/rules/)

r/NewToReddit does not publish karma or account-age minimums in its rules. Subreddits often enforce unpublished filters on top of what they write down, which is why posts from new accounts can vanish without a message here.
