Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-YSK posts using the [META] tag on your post title.Rule 6- Regarding non-YSK posts.
If you harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed. If you are a member, sympathizer or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight. For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
Rule 7- You can’t harass or disturb other members.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.

Rule 10- The majority of bots aren’t allowed to participate here.
Disinformation, trolling, and being misleading will not be tolerated. Repeated or egregious attempts will earn you a ban.
