Rule Page and Report Reasons Updated!
submitted over 9 years ago by skiddlzninja

###Clearer Rules!

The rule page for the subreddit has now been updated to contain all of the rules that you all have come to know and love. For the sake of clarity, a small definition of "hand-checks" has been added. The revamped, clearer rules can be found here or by clicking the blue "i" button on the report dialog box.

Don't worry, no new rules have been added, but some unwritten rules have officially been written. ^^^We ^^^all ^^^remember ^^^the ^^^"Rule ^^^#7 ^^^Incident" ^^^of ^^^2014...

###New Report Reasons!

And thanks to reddit helping improve moderator's work, you can now report a thread for the specific rule it's breaking. There should be no more threads reported for "No Reason." So please, if you feel a post violates one of the rules, or, more importantly, one of Reddit's rules, please use one of the shiny new report reasons.


Please re-familiarize yourself with these rules and report reasons.

Thank you all for everything you do and contribute, and have a wonderful weekend.

.

-Literally the Worst Ever, Skiddlz

by abdadaover 9 years agoI will rip you a new one if you don't use the sidebar & search.

Please read the sidebar and use the searchbar before posting topics like this.

I reported this post for "No Reason" so the mods can delete it.

That's considered asking about rule 7. Rule 8 is the only bannable offense, so I'm gonna have to give you a 5 minute ban.

Apparently, reporting rules violations also immediately removes them now?

I'l refrain from my gag reports in the future, because it appears I have blown this post off the front page.

Oops.

No, reports don't immediately remove them. Where does it say that?

I'm just a reddit buffoon.

It doesnt.

/u/queuetue, when you report a post, it automatically hides it for you. Refresh the page & click unhide next to report.

As far as I know, reporting has always removed the offending post from your personal feed.

It just hides it, the opposite of saving it. Also right next to the save button.

The end of the rules still cracks me up when I read it.
