#RULES

No "FOR SALE" posts. Feel free to hawk your wares in our sister subreddit /r/BitMarket - this means no goup buys as well. As common as it is in Bitcoin Mining, it is far to risky to be carried out over reddit.

No verbal abuse. If you don't have anything nice to say, it's best not to say anything at all. Remember, we were all newbies once. Mining isn't exactly a trivial venture.

No Referral Links. No Amazon/eBay referral links. No mining pool referral links. No mining contract referral links. No referral links, period.

No Promoting New Alt Coins. If there is a new alt coin out, this is not the place to discuss or promote it. If you have questions about mining that alt coin, feel free to ask away!

No short-URLs. Nobody should have to trust you before clicking on a link. URL-shortener services serve no use on Reddit as there is nothing restricting the size of your comment string.

No begging. Do not ask for other people to mine for your address. Do not beg for donations simply for lending a helping hand.

Anybody caught violating the rules will be banned on sight. If you notice somebody abusing the subreddit rules, please message the moderators with the permalink in question.

All members of the BitcoinMining subreddit are expected to read and follow the Official Reddit Rules as well as the informal Reddiquette guidelines. Likewise, all moderators of this subreddit do follow the Modiquette.
