Addition of rules to /r/4chan
RULES:
-
No direct links to 4chan.org
-
All posts must be related to 4chan.org: either a screenshot of or image with a direct relationship to 4chan.
-
Trivial GET posts, Omegle logs, Staredad, Arthur, Dolan comics, and Greentext copypasta will be removed. Anything about Jimmies outside of the context of 4chan will also be removed.
-
Reddit terms of use still apply to r/4chan. Violating these terms by posting others’ personal information, (Phone numbers, Addresses, Social media links...etc) or Child pornography will result in an immediate and permanent ban.
-
Remember, this is not 4chan.
The majority of these rules should not come as a surprise. Rule #3 will remove a sizable chunk of garbage submissions. Rule #5 is a statement of common sense, and doesn't have any strict implications.
EDIT: Rule #3 has been reworded for clarity.

I really enjoyed greentext stories...
Greentext copypasta. New greentext stories are allowed.
Good to know... Maybe you should have added these 'oh shieeet' comics as well.
If they become more of a problem then it's a possibility.
If you do, please clarify that they can still post to r/SHHHHHEEEEEEEEIIIITT instead.
I don't feel they belong here since there's a relatively strong subreddit dedicated to just them. Not saying delete them as of now, just discourage anything not directly related to 4chan since this r/4chan not r/sheeit

They are pretty funny as of now.
2 words. 1 cancerous blob. Rage comics.
Do greentext posts that end in derailment eg " walk the dinosaur, bell air" count as copypasta?
Only if they have been posted before. If the story itself is original or relatively new, then it will be allowed.
What about altered copypastas, a la "I'll have you know" and whatnot?
Maybe you should clarify this a bit. Unfortunately, not everyone here understands what copypasta is.
still allowed, just not obvious copypasta
