What its rules say about promotion
No Spam
No spam: This includes self-promotion violating the 10%-rule, repeated posting to LEGO® Ideas projects, YT channel posts, blogspam, etc. The 10%-rule specifies that only 10% of all posts can be to revenue creating content. This includes blogs, websites, YT channels, and the like. Blogspam are posts to blog entries which contain content lifted from other sites or which only consist of links to content on other sites. The blog doesn't have to be the users to count as blogspam.

All 15 rules of r/lego
- LEGO® Only
This is the world of LEGO® ! All things LEGO® compatible go to /r/buildingblocks. - NO LEAKED IMAGES!!!
Self-explanatory. If it has a "confidential" watermark accross it, or has yet to be officially announced by LEGO®, then it is most likely a leak. Better be safe than sorry as the future of this sub depends on it. - No Hate Speech
No hate speech of any kind. For ease, this rule also includes fighting-words and obscenities thrown at each other. - Keep it Civil
From time to time contentious subjects come up. Stay calm and collected, don't insult, and don't bully. You may exchange ideas and opinions. We will not tolerate name calling, insulting, bullying, or other **uncivil** behaviour. Depending on your conduct you might be granted the permanent privilege to no longer post on r/lego. - No Spam
No spam: This includes self-promotion violating the 10%-rule, repeated posting to LEGO® Ideas projects, YT channel posts, blogspam, etc. The 10%-rule specifies that only 10% of all posts can be to revenue creating content. This includes blogs, websites, YT channels, and the like. Blogspam are posts to blog entries which contain content lifted from other sites or which only consist of links to content on other sites. The blog doesn't have to be the users to count as blogspam. - No Selling, Trading, or Free Giveaways
No Selling, trading, or free giveaways: Please post in /r/Legomarket for selling and /r/Legotrade for trading. No links to web stores except shop.lego.com (no affiliate links). No hustling and slinging products as posts or comments. This includes promotion of paid instructions. No giving away stuff. No exchange of money. - No Charity
We do not allow any charity posts. Either as stand-alone posts or as comments. - No MT Posts outside of MT
A **Mega Thread** is a post where other posts are collected in on a given topic. E.g. What's it Worth questions belong in the What's it Worth MT and your daily purchase posts belong in the Today's Purchase MT. - No Obfuscated Access
Sites that obfuscate access to content, e.g. redirecting to a signup page, may be subject to removal. - No Heart String-Pulling Titles
Sorry, but we have a rule against using titles that could be exploited for karma by using potentially heart string pulling language. - No Multiples
No multiples are allowed in a 48h period. - No LEGO vs LEGOS
We do not tolerate any debate on the subject of LEGO vs LEGOS, as post or comment. - No Naked HUMANS
We do not tolerate pictures or videos of naked HUMANS, with or without LEGO. - No Memes
No Meme/image macro submissions. Post them in /r/legomeme instead. - Do Not Post
We do not permit the posting of review videos or t-shirts.
What the written rules don't show
- Unpublished minimums. Many communities remove posts from new or low-karma accounts through AutoModerator settings that are not on the rules page, often before a moderator sees them.
- Reddit's own filters. Reddit's site-wide spam filters can remove posts from accounts that mostly share links to their own site, in any community.
- The community's norms. Many communities see themselves as peers, not an audience: post where you already take part, and make the post worth reading without the link.
Let your AI read the rules before it posts.
ThreadFox reads a community's current rules, writes a post that fits them, posts once with Reddit's Brand affiliate tag and checks it stayed up. The free ThreadFox Lite reads rules too.
