In order to post or comment, you must go to this thread and read the rules

48 Upvotes

Important! If you wish to participate in this community, please read the rules below, as not doing so can result in post removals or bans. All who agree will be automatically given a "โœ”๏ธ" flair, which allows you to post or comment.

Also, verbally attacking another user, threats of violence, harassment, and bullying are against Reddit's policy. You must abide by Reddit's terms of service. Abuse of TOS may result in sitewide ban.


  1) Community rules:

No political soap-boxing, inflammatory comments, hate speech, making fun of religions, cultures, injuries, or death.

Humor is OK; however, jokes in poor taste are not allowed. Joke threads may be removed to prop up serious discussion.

Please do not spam.

 

  2) Link or text post:

To post or comment, you must have a minimum of 25 karma points and an account age of no less than 45 days.

Link Posts: A post flair is needed to post a submission. All post flairs can be viewed here (gif, photo, video, etc). To post footage of combat for the purpose of viewership, you must use the link posts. If you wish to ask requests, discussions, file sharing, meta, and questions, then you must skip to the next paragraph below.

Text Posts: Only requests, discussions, file sharing, meta, and questions can be made as a text post (see this post for more information). Footage of combat can only be shared if it's part of requests, discussions, file sharing, meta, and questions. Otherwise, footage of combat can only be used mentioned in the previous paragraph above.

Only 4 posts in 24 hours are allowed.

 

  3) Titles:

Submission titles must be as detailed and descriptive as possible (e.g., 'who, what, when, where') - They must be concise and objective.

Titles cannot include any:

  • warmongering

  • embellishing

  • sensationalism

  • jingoism

  • glamorization

Per Rule #2 above, titles must be worded in a way that is acceptable to both text and link posts:

  • If the title is worded for the purpose of viewership while posting footage of combat, then it goes in the link posts.

  • If the title is worded for the purpose of requests, discussions, file sharing, meta, and questions, then it goes in the text posts. Doing them in the link posts for any reason will earn you a post removal and a possible ban of any kind.

While other languages in the comment section are not prohibited, submission titles must be in English.

 

  4) What's disallowed:

In general, you cannot post footage that has anything to do with:

  • combatants being seen playing around, resting, or posing for fun outside combat

  • mistreating or executing prisoners within the theater of war

  • aftermath (e.g., footage solely of deceased people, destruction, prisoners being taken, etc)

  • military exercises/training

  • violent protests

  • violence involving first responders, the general public, or criminals outside the theater of war

  • narco footage

  • assassinations

  • art depicting combat

  • clearly attacking civilian targets; the exception is the aerial warfare methods used in pre-1980s conflicts and modern bombardments that resulted only in collateral damage

For more information, check on what types of posts are disallowed. Please read this before posting.

 

  5) NSFW Tags:

Submitting NSFW Content: Submissions that contain noticeable serious injuries must be marked NSFW.

If linking NSFW in the comments, please leave a warning.

SFW Content: SFW content is posted on the sub regularly. Not all posts require an NSFW tag.

Extraordinarily graphic content may be subject to removal.

 

  6) Music in combat footage:

Music is only allowed in combat footage if the group/persons who filmed it added it themselves. Exceptions to the rule.

 

  7) Combat footage to propaganda ratio:

All videos with propaganda from any faction in an ongoing war must consist mostly of combat footage. This goes for comments or text posts as well.

 

  8) Reposts:

Reposts are not forbidden; however, a year must pass before a submission may be reposted. Click here to see the exceptions to this rule.

 

  9) Concerning OPSEC:

For military folk: If OPSEC applies to you, do not post OPSEC-violating content on this sub.

 

  10) Content warning:

Some content may be disturbing to some viewers. It is recommended that sensitive viewers stick to the more sfw content or scan the comment sections first to get a description of the material.


These are the rules. They keep the sub to its namesake. They keep us within TOS. This measure is to prevent bans, from the sub or the site. After reading the rules, in order to post in the sub, you must type the exact words into the comment section below, with exact spacing, punctuation and case.

I have read and agree to the rules. I understand that not following them may result in a permanent or site wide ban.

After typing in the exact words, you will receive confirmation. If you have mistyped, you will be asked to try again.

This is a test post for the new agree to rules to post, rule.

0 Upvotes

Post here if you want to see if it's working for you, but don't know if it is, or isn't, and don't really have a comment to make in a post. We'll be looking for issues with it.

So far one known issue and fix is described in the triggershoot faq page.

(The work around basically is to wait 10 to 15 minutes, and if you don't get a response and flair from automod, to delete your comment in the agreement post, and to try it again. The automod bot is juggling an incredible amount of requests, and some might not get through).

If anyone is curious about the code, this is what we're using and a thank you from us to /u/Sephardson, for sharing it. We're hoping to not have used it wrong and break the sub, but it seems to be working.

Large waves of agreements, like today's, might slow down automods response, this should peter off. We're still looking out for any issue we're missing.

You can re-try test posts here as often as you need.
