All 4 rules of r/roadtrip

Scraping
No Spam
Route questions: include start, end, and dates
Route posts need a start point, an end point, and rough dates. Give people something to work with - vehicle and group help too - and you'll get real answers instead of guesses.
Trip reports: route and specifics
Trip reports need more than "it was great" - include the route, days, miles, and what you'd do differently. That's what makes them useful to the next person driving it.

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Unpublished minimums.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.
