its rules on Reddit

Welcome to /r/SaltSpringIsland! A subreddit for all news, events and discussion involving Salt Spring and neighbouring islands.

What its rules say about promotion

Civility
We require our users to be positive and respectful to one another. This means being kind to those you disagree with. Behaviors such as shaming, mocking, ranting, advocating violence, and threatening (including threats of self-harm) other users, third parties, groups, or businesses will be met with removals and bans. This includes content that leads to or promotes on- or off-site witch-hunting, abuse, or harassment in any way. Be excellent to each other.

Spam, Selling, and Self-Promotion
No unauthorized self-promotion, job-seeking, buy/sell, referral/affiliate links, crowdfunding campaigns, surveys, or petitions. We define spam as more than one self-promoting submission for nine unrelated pieces of content. Moderator discretion may be used when proactively identifying and actioning astroturfing and/or stealth promotion. Abide by Reddit's content policy.

Behaviors such as shaming, mocking, ranting, advocating violence, and threatening (including threats of self-harm) other users, third parties, groups, or businesses will be met with removals and bans. This includes content that leads to or promotes on- or off-site witch-hunting, abuse, or harassment in any way. Be excellent to each other.
Inclusivity
Respect others' differences, be they race, religion, home, job, gender identity, ability, vulnerability, or sexuality. When faced with a removal or ban, "I was just joking!" or "it was obviously sarcasm" are not acceptable excuses. Dehumanizing language and slurs are instant bans.
Accuracy
Do not deviate from news headlines when sharing news articles. Save your opinions for sharing in comments within the post. Moderators reserve the right to remove posts about extreme experiences at the team's discretion if the information or source is unverifiable and/or sensationalized. Please avoid posting information that can be easily proven false, including science denial like anti-vaxx messaging or disputing climate change.
Topic Guidelines
All submissions should be relevant to Salt Spring Island and the Gulf Islands area. Topics and news about British Columbia or Canada may be allowed with mod discretion. Duplicate new posts will be removed.
Spam, Selling, and Self-Promotion
No unauthorized self-promotion, job-seeking, buy/sell, referral/affiliate links, crowdfunding campaigns, surveys, or petitions. We define spam as more than one self-promoting submission for nine unrelated pieces of content. Moderator discretion may be used when proactively identifying and actioning astroturfing and/or stealth promotion. Abide by Reddit's content policy.

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.
