#Rules

Posts must be related to weapons only. Weapon visuals, concepts and rebalances are allowed with a few exceptions (More on rule 2). No gamemode ideas or other content that is not related with weapons.
Be as grounded as possible. No excessive references or ideas that would be nigh impossible in tf2. This includes nonsensical ideas that are referencing popular SFMs or anime, or balance ideas that are designed for other community mods, such as TF2 x10 or TF2 Classic.
No NSFW (Not Safe For Work) posts are allowed. This includes innuendos.
No harassment. Personal attacks are not allowed. Harsh critique is allowed to some extent, but try to keep it as civil as possible. In the same vein, try to not get offended for receiving critique for your ideas.
No random weapon generator posts. This extends to promoting random weapon generator apps.
No CaSC (Counter a Specific Class) items, where CaSC = Any weapon/item that is specifically programmed for targeted, unequal use against any-one class/class specific mechanic.
Memes are not allowed on this subreddit. This includes joke weapons.
Users may not make more than 3 posts at once within 24 hours to prevent the front page from being too clogged.
