I. THE RULES A-C: DON’T REPOST - CHECK HERE FIRST

Lots of content gets reposted by users not following the rules. Don’t steal karma. Check this post (Section II) as well as new before submitting any content.

There are ads that get spam posted here on a weekly basis that will get you temporarily banned. Example

And it’s still a repost even though you took the screenshot yourself. It’s not original content if you didn’t make it yourself and if you didn’t make it yourself there’s a chance other people have also seen it, taken a photo/screenshot and posted it online. This effect is multiplied exponentially when it comes to mass-produced ads found on the internet. Just check the mega thread and the first page of hot and the first page of new before posting. It takes all of half a minute.

Respect your fellow Lemmy users.

D. CONSEQUENCES AND BANS

If you do receive a temporary ban, don’t complain to the mods. Whining about your suspension will earn you an added 5 day suspension. You will also receive a temporary 5 day ban if you argue with the moderators about removing your post. We didn’t do it just to stick it to you. You broke the rules and there are consequences for breaking rules.

If your post was removed because the content was already present on the first page of new, there is a strong chance that the post that was in new before your post was also a repost and had also been removed.

Asking for proof in cases such as this is futile.

Simply: you should have checked first.

E. INCLUDE CONTEXT - NO UNVERIFIED SOURCES

If it looks like you made it yourself, it will be removed. We need to see that it actually fits the criteria.

F. NO BLURRY PHOTOS, BAD CROPS OR SIDEWAYS/UPSIDE-DOWN IMAGES

I mean, come on. It isn’t that hard.

G. META POSTS MAY ONLY BE POSTED ON MONDAYS

If you’re contemplating flairing your submission as META, it had better be between Sunday at 6P PST and Tuesday at 6A PST.
