All 14 rules of r/NBA2k
  1. Follow Reddiquette
    Follow Reddit’s [Reddiquette](https://www.reddithelp.com/en/categories/reddit-101/reddit-basics/reddiquette) and Content Policy. Be respectful, welcoming, and friendly to everyone, including 2K staff and others in the 2K community. Personal insults, bullying, violence and hate speech are not allowed. Everyone is treated equally. For example, a user insulting you does not mean you can insult them back — report them and move on. Public callouts are not allowed.
  2. Post Quality Guidelines
    Posts that are low-quality and low-effort are not allowed. Examples include spam, whiny rants, bad memes, excessive expletives, complaining about something related to skill, misleading information, asking a question that can easily be answered yourself, or asking a question that no one can answer.
  3. Repost Guidelines
    Reposts and frequently asked questions will be removed. This includes posts discussing the same topic from a similar angle. Before posting, browse recent posts, look through our Wiki/FAQ, and use the search bar. Post quality (effort, formatting, source) is prioritized over which post was made first.
  4. Title Guidelines
    Post titles should be descriptive and unique. “help me", "MyCareer", "quick question", and most short titles will be removed. Do not excessively or unnecessarily use ALL-CAPS, expletives, emojis 😂🔥, punctuation !!!???, and other obnoxious things in your title. Don’t clickbait. Keep your titles opinion-free when sharing information and tweets.
  5. Media Guidelines
    Media should be high-resolution and high-quality. Images and videos of the game taken with a phone must be cropped to your TV/monitor. Screenshots and screen-recordings must crop out anything not relevant to your post. Make a link post or text post rather than posting screenshots of articles, tweets, and plain text. Upload your media using [Reddit](https://www.reddit.com/submit), [imgur.com](https://imgur.com/upload), [streamable.com](https://streamable.com/), gfycat.com, or gamerdvr.com.

Verified Content Creators are exempt. Default requirements to promote content: Account is 3+ months old, has >500 post karma, and has >Sapphire user flair.

  8. Megathread Guidelines
    Users may be asked to use a megathread instead of making a new post. Pinned posts can be found at the top of our front page, independent of votes.
  9. Game Feedback Guidelines
    We recommend using the feedback channels in the official NBA 2K Community Discord to share feedback about the game to 2K. Posts that should go to 2K Support will be removed. This includes error codes and account issues. Please open a ticket or live chat with them instead.
  10. Follow 2K's Terms of Service
    If game mechanics are intentionally being manipulated in a way that violates NBA 2K's Terms of Service or [Player Code of Conduct](https://support.2k.com/hc/en-us/articles/32551868190355--NBA-2K25-Player-Code-of-Conduct), discussion will not be allowed. This includes boosting, farming, and hacking. If you would like to bring an exploit to 2K's attention, please send the details to modmail.
  11. Moderation Guidelines
    Do not attempt to find loopholes or evade moderation actions. Rules are enforced with discretion and may change at any time. Issues with the mod team must be addressed in modmail. One-sided public complaints such as "my post was removed" or “I was banned” are not allowed. We welcome questions and suggestions through modmail, the shared inbox where members can message the moderators. Mods will not respond to private messages, chats or comment replies.
  12. Miscellaneous Guidelines
    Some things are restricted: * Posts that belong on another subreddit * Misleading/false information * Karma farming * Vote manipulation * Ban evasion * Bragging (ex. box scores) * Petitions * Surveys * Inappropriate usernames, bios, or avatars * Impersonation * "Who is this logo player?" posts

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.
