No trolling, hate speech, harassment, discrimination, threats, personal attacks or unnecessary hostility. Maintain a professional tone and keep discussion constructive. - No Political, Moral or Ideological Debates

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- Unpublished minimums.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.
