What its rules say about promotion
Don’t post referral links or discord/community invites
Referral links can become spam very quickly, and so can discord or other community invites. We have seen this in the past and have spoken to developers about these programs multiple times. The same now goes for Discord or other community invites. The need for community in this genre is high, but going to everyone that plays a certain game and replying with a discord link isn’t the way to find people.

Don’t advertise private servers
In order to maintain some goodwill from developers for which we host AMAs, and to please Reddit and their own rules we ask you not to advertise private servers. Discussion of private servers is fine as long as you don’t ask for specific servers as that would be LFMMO or advertise them. We are willing to make exceptions for servers that have a license, a good faith understanding with the developers, or for games that wouldn’t be available any other way like Star Wars Galaxies. Please contact us
Don't advertise NFT, Cryptocurrency, and/or Blockchain MMORPGs
Advertising of MMORPGs that feature NFTs, Cryptocurrency, or Blockchain technology are strictly banned from the subreddit and not allowed under any circumstances what so ever.
What its rules say about AI and bots
No AI Generated Content
We do not allow AI Content that is entirely or in part generated through AI.
All 10 rules of r/MMORPG
- Don’t ask for MMO recommendations
Out of community feedback we don’t allow LFMMO/Recommend me an MMO type posts on /r/MMORPG. If you are looking for an MMO to play however there is a weekly sticky where you can post in or you can go to /r/LFMMO. - Don’t be toxic
You will be labeled toxic when you intentionally use language meant to hurt people, this includes hate speech, denying groups their human rights, excluding marginalized groups and personal attacks. Toxicity can go beyond that, for example you can be negative without adding value. Don’t diminish people's enjoyment of games, or just go into a thread screaming that this game sucks. If you’re going to be a troll, we will remove you from this community. Basically don't be a dick. - Don’t post referral links or discord/community invites
Referral links can become spam very quickly, and so can discord or other community invites. We have seen this in the past and have spoken to developers about these programs multiple times. The same now goes for Discord or other community invites. The need for community in this genre is high, but going to everyone that plays a certain game and replying with a discord link isn’t the way to find people. - No YouTube direct linking -- unless it's straight from the developers page.
You can always post a link to an official channel, one that is owned by the developer. But to avoid people spamming their sick PVP montages we don’t allow direct linking to youtube. If you want to post a video from a creator you still can, this is absolutely allowed. We just ask that you post it in a text post with ~a paragraph of text so that people don’t need to watch the video to be part of the discussion. - Read the self promo rules before you promote your own work!

Please contact us - No Gatekeeping
You’re allowed to think something is or isn’t an MMO. You’re even allowed to make posts about it But we ask that you keep an open mind about allowing games that scratch the same itch to be discussed, Valheim is by no means an MMO but it has a lot of elements an MMO could learn from. Sometimes a game plays nearly identical like an MMO and should be allowed in some form to be discussed. That’s why we ask you not to just comment “this isn’t an MMO” on a thread and leave causing nothing but drama. - Don't advertise NFT, Cryptocurrency, and/or Blockchain MMORPGs
Advertising of MMORPGs that feature NFTs, Cryptocurrency, or Blockchain technology are strictly banned from the subreddit and not allowed under any circumstances what so ever. - No Bad Fun
Fun is subjective and not everyone shares the same enjoyment of certain elements. So with a genre this expansive and diverse there is bound to people who heavily dislike certain elements while liking others. This is not a bad thing and people's enjoyment is not something to be admonished. We do not allow dismissive and antagonistic behavior towards those purely out of one's enjoyment of something different. - No AI Generated Content
We do not allow AI Content that is entirely or in part generated through AI.
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.
