Don’t post any sexual content featuring children or minors. This includes suggestive content. Don’t spam. Spamming is the practice of rapidly posting the same thing over and over again, or filling up posts with repeated information. Don’t try to affect how people vote on your posts. Everything from begging to asking politely is forbidden. Don’t post personal information. This includes your own information and that of others. Don’t damage or interfere with the site itself.
To learn the specific rules for a subreddit, tap the subreddit’s link, tap the menu button in the top-right corner of the screen, and tap Community Info (mobile), or check the right side of the main page of that subreddit (desktop). Breaking subreddit rules won’t get you in serious trouble with the site, but it can get you and your post(s) removed from that subreddit. It will also irritate other users of the subreddit.
Be courteous. Other commenters and posters are human just like you. Consider what you would say if you confronted this person face-to-face before posting. Vote on other users’ comments and submissions. Make sure that you only use the downvote option for content or comments that don’t fit the subreddit or don’t add anything to the conversation. Don’t downvote simply because you don’t agree with the other person. Make thoughtful posts, stay abreast of new posts, and link to outside sources responsibly. Meaning contribute to the conversation at hand in a meaningful manner. Redditors do not take kindly to blatant spam or self promotion. If you are upfront about what your link is, and it contributes to the conversation and is applicable, then by all means post. Blatant self promotion or attempts to garner traffic usually are not met with favorably. Let people know why you edited your comment. It is common courtesy to explain why your post has been edited, as everyone can see which posts have been edited. Don’t be intentionally rude. Reddit strives to foster an active community, and rudeness undermines that. Don’t start or participate in trolling and flame wars, which are attacks on other users without contributing to the discussion.
