All 12 rules of r/Minneapolis
- Posts must be about Minneapolis, MN
All post submissions should pertain exclusively to Minneapolis in some way. If a submission applies to elsewhere in the metro area or to the metro area or state broadly, try submitting to r/TwinCities or r/Minnesota. Exceptions may be made if incidents in the metro area garner national/international attention. This will be at the discretion of the moderation team. Also, posts about missing animals are generally exempt from this rule. - No Commerce

Content that contains nudity, pornography, or *excessive* profanity, which a reasonable viewer may not want to be seen accessing in a public or formal setting such as in a workplace should be marked NSFW. - No Trolling
If posts or comments tick one or more of these boxes they violate this sub's No Trolling policy: * racism and bigotry * sexism, misogyny and transphobia * vitriol and malice * general hate Posts that appear contrarian do not automatically qualify as trolling unless one or more of the aforementioned requirements are met. In the end, what constitutes trolling is left up to the discretion of the moderators. - No Personal Attacks
Incivility between users will not be tolerated. Attack ideas, not people. Repeated and intentional violations of this rule may result in a temporary or permanent ban from the subreddit. - No sensationalized/editorialized/unsubstantiated submissions
Use the title from the article you are submitting as the title for your reddit post. Do not link to social media, images or any other content that makes or implies unsubstantiated claims, especially regarding public safety, criminal activity or your own amateur detective work. Editorialized/sensationalized/unsubstantiated submissions are subject to removal at moderator discretion and may lead to a ban. If you feel your submission is on the line, message the mods and we will provide clarity. - Nothing that violates Reddit's content policy
Spam, doxxing, illegal activity (drug solicitation), brigading, advocating violence, etc. is naturally prohibited content on this sub. Please see [Reddit's content policy page](https://www.reddit.com/help/contentpolicy/) for further clarification. - No d0xxing
D0xxing is against the sub's tos and reddit's tos. - No Nextdoor.com-like posts
Petty grievances about the behavior of non-notable people/situations you've come across in day to day life will be removed. Unfolding events may be allowed on a case by case basis. E.g.: - a restaurant had a surcharge and you didn't like it - someone was driving and you didn't like it - you saw someone on public transit and you didn't like it - a dog was off-leash and you didn't like it - a crime maybe happened and you didn't like it Violations/actions are subject to mod discretion - No AI Slop
Terrible AI-generated content is prohibited. What counts as "terrible" is generally up to the discretion of the mods. Posts/comments showing AI slop to criticize its use by prominent individuals/organizations is excluded from this rule. Complaints about non-notable people using AI are still prohibited by Rule 11.
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.
