Subreddit Rules update! New Rules and Old Rules clarified, please take time to read this before posting.

Announcement

Hello everyone!

We're starting to gain traction for quite a while now and our rules section is pretty small and not very well clarified, so I decided to clarify the old rules and add some rules to make being in this sub more enjoyable for everyone. Don't worry, none of the new rules are a bannable offense, just take a while to read them to understand why a post of yours might be removed in the future, this is due to mod team deciding to keep focus of our subreddit in check.

New Rules:

Rule 6 has been added

6."Art posts must be in some way related to Kris x Ralsei, which means either: direct ship art, art featuring Kris and Ralsei in one place or art implying the ship."

ADDENDUM: Rule 6 now also applies to discussion and link posts as of 12th June 2019

We want this subreddit to maintain focus, but we won't be too strict on that. Art posted here should vaguely be related to Kris x Ralsei, so these kinds of posts are allowed:

All of those are allowed.

We are pretty lax, we welcome all art and discussion, but please let it be even a bit related to both Kris and Ralsei (or our community).

Ban time if broken: None, this is not a bannable offense. At worst we'll remove the post with no consequence.

Rule 7 has been added

7."Please rehost images in mobile friendly ways, i.redd.it or i.imgur.com are the best."

  • This is here for two reasons, one of them is that mobile friendly ways are friendly to PC users as well. If the image is hosted on imgur or via reddit upload then a person doesn't have to click the link to see the posts, they can click the little square to see the posts.

  • The second reason is that other hosting methods are unreliable, we've seen from Tumblr fiasco that someone's art can be deleted from original source on whim of the admins, and we want our sub's art to stay as long as possible.

Ban time if broken: None, this is not a bannable offense. I doubt we'll even remove the post if that happens, we just ask you to please follow it, it will make it easier for everyone.

Rule 8 has been added

8."Please keep reposts at absolute minimum, any art that has already been posted here less than 2 months ago will be removed."

  • This is just to keep variety on our sub, we will allow the original artist to post their art even if it was posted less than two months ago, but please do not repost art already here, it makes it more difficult to make collections as well.

Ban time if broken: None, this is not a bannable offense. At worst we'll remove the repost with no consequences.

Rule 9 has been added as of June 21 2019

9."Please post the highest quality images you can, posts with mobile artifacts (or stuff like ifunny watermarks) will be removed."

Self explanatory, we all hate bad quality images...

Ban time if broken: None, this is not a bannable offense, but we will remove posts with bad quality and/or mobile artifacts, artist watermarks are fine.

Old rules clarified:

1.Follow redditquette

Just read this: https://www.reddit.com/wiki/reddiquette and follow it however well you can.

I can't predict ban time for that because many of these are not bannable offenses, it will be case by case basis. This is more of a guideline than a rule.

2.Have respect for your fellow shippers.

Respect in that case means: no baseless accusations of bad acts, no insults, constructive critique, being friendly, no pointless arguing and stuff like that.

Just in general, don't be a dick.

Ban time if broken: Very hard to predict, it depends on severity of offense, this will also be a case by case basis. But we'll generally forgive one outburst, any further than that and we'll show you the door.

3.Anything suggestive is to be marked NSFW, actual NSFW is banned.

Anything that suggest lewd activity, such as grabbing below the belt, implied but not shown nudity and such is to be marked suggestive.

Ban time if broken: None, the post will be just marked NSFW by one of the mods.

Anything NSFW, which means direct nudity, sex acts clearly shown and such cannot be uploaded.

Ban time if broken: First offense: None. Second offense: 1 week. Third offense: 2 weeks. Fourth offense: 1 month.

4.Please put source in comments

At absolute minimum, please put the page of the artist in the comments. The best way is putting the name of the artist in the title and direct link to their page in the comments.

If you don't know the name of the artist then you can message me and I'll find it and send you a link.

Ban time if broken: None, this is not a bannable offense, and the post won't be removed either, unless the artist specifically asked in original source to never repost their art.

5.Mark potential spoilers as spoilers

Currently there is not a single thing that counts as spoiler, so this rule is a placeholder until next chapters come out.

Ban time if broken: Probably none, but we'll cross that bridge when we get there.

10.Brush your teeth 2-3 times a day

Ban time if broken: Permanent.

If you have any suggestions or objections we would love to hear them, we'll listen to our community and try to adapt to it.
