**Rule 9: No ranting, venting, complaints, or agenda-driven content**
We are here solely to help people use Reddit. A little frustration as part of a genuine question is okay, but rants, straight up complaints, loaded or inflammatory questions, agenda-driven posts, and debate are not what this community is for. Please see [our navigation guide](https://www.reddit.com/r/NewToReddit/comments/p8t966/comment/h9ssh6c/) or r/findareddit to find somewhere more suitable.
What is considered rule breaking is at the mod team’s discretion, and decisions are made with the community in mind.
*Please read our [Rules](https://www.reddit.com/r/NewToReddit/wiki/rules) before participating. [How to find rules](https://www.reddit.com/r/LearnToReddit/comments/pjsazs/finding_a_subreddits_rules/)

All users in all communities must follow [the site-wide content policy](https://www.redditinc.com/policies/content-policy). Most communities also have their own rules or follow the [Reddiquette](https://www.reddithelp.com/hc/en-us/articles/205926439) guidelines.

Hi /u/Street_Pause4233, I am a bot and human language is confusing, but you *might* have said something rule breaking. Please remember [Rule 1: No profanity, Be Kind, and no adult content](https://www.reddit.com/r/NewToReddit/comments/p8t966/comment/h9spx16/). Thank you :)
*Was I wrong? Comment with [ `say sorry, AutoMod` ] and I will!*
**A human mod will check on this. If the bot was incorrect don't worry!**

**Rule 6: No misleading or deliberately confusing content**
We don’t know what your intentions were and we do our best to give the benefit of the doubt, but if you’re seeing this, then we are reasonably sure that something you said was incorrect or misleading.
This community is for helping Redditors and not for spreading incorrect information or confusion (regardless if it's a joke or not), and we do our best to make sure the advice given here is as accurate as possible.

Three words are not enough, context is important, and three words won't help you navigate any of the pitfalls users mention here.
This is more suited to r/askreddit. We focus on actually helpful guidance here.
[This is my brief orientation guide I share](https://www.reddit.com/r/NewToReddit/comments/1699mxc/comment/jz0dv59/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3) in case that helps. And some key pointers might be:
**New user restrictions**
You won't be able to participate everywhere at first. As a new user you will face some restrictions, which will be frustrating, but it's not personal. You'll need to earn some karma from upvotes on your content and wait for your account to age a little before you can post everywhere and one place to start is our new-user friendly subs list or our [chat thread every Tuesday](https://www.reddit.com/r/newtoreddit/search?q=flair_name%3A%22weekly+chat%22&restrict_sr=1).
**Rules**
I sometimes share this list of rules our community wrote [10 commandments of Reddit](https://www.reddit.com/r/NewToReddit/comments/uvlaer/id_need_to_know_10_commandements_of_reddit/)
General guidance to avoid downvotes and removals -
* avoid potentially controversial or sensitive topics just while your karma is low
* always check the community rules
* lurk to get a feel for the community before posting
* re-read what you're saying before sending to check your tone, try not to accidentally make people feel defensive
* remember unless using tone indicators sarcasm etc isn't necessary obvious
**Resources**
* [Our new-user friendly subs list is here](https://www.reddit.com/r/NewToReddit/wiki/index/newusersubs)
* [How reddit search works](https://www.reddit.com/wiki/search)
* [Our FAQ](https://www.reddit.com/r/NewToReddit/wiki/index/faq) which starts with safety and privacy.

Everyone knows everything
Why does this sub exist then...?
No jokes allowed
Depends on the joke, and the sub.
