r/WhatToDo Subreddit Rules

1

Don't Be a Jerk

Treat other users with respect. Act like civilized human beings. You may disagree, criticize actions, or challenge opinions, BUT you may not harass, insult, bully, or repeatedly attack other users. Come on guys, if that isn't already obvious to you, then you've got a problem.

Violation reason: They are being a Jerk and breaking RULE #1.
2

Give Advice in Good Faith

This subreddit exists to help people make decisions. Top-level comments should attempt to answer the OP's question or provide a useful perspective. If it doesn't pertain to the OP's situation, it probably shouldn't be discussed here. As long as it isn't a full-fledged argument, it's fine. Things like honest advice, tough love, and constructive criticism are allowed; Trolling, deliberately misleading advice, and low-effort spam comments are not.

Violation reason: They aren't acting in Good Faith, they are breaking Rule #2.
3

No Threats, Violence, or Criminal Advice

Do not threaten others or encourage illegal activity. Pretty self-explanatory. Discussing self-defense, legal rights, or reporting crimes is permitted.

Violation reason: They are breaking Rule #3 - Threatening, Violent, or Criminal Advice.
4

No Doxxing or Personal Information

Respect privacy. Do not post private or identifying information about yourself or others. We all know this, right?

Violation reason: There is a Privacy Concern, they are breaking Rule #4.
5

No Hate Speech or Slurs

Attacks based on race, ethnicity, nationality, religion, sex, disability, or other protected characteristics are prohibited.

Context may be considered, but moderators reserve the right to remove content that serves no purpose other than attacking people based on identity. It'd be best to keep common profanity limited if possible, though it is not part of the rules.

Violation reason: Hate Speech/Slurs, they are breaking Rule #5.
6

No Spam or Self-Promotion

Do not use this subreddit primarily to advertise. Let's keep links out of posts and comments. Comments that require links to help the OP's situation/question, should be submitted to one of the mods, in the mail, or a dm. If it is a commonly known safe website, it should be fine to comment with it, but if Reddit flags it, it will be reviewed and potentially taken down. Don't post or comment suspicious links.

Violation reason: Spam, they are breaking Rule #6.
7

Provide Enough Context

Posts should include enough information for users to give meaningful advice. Proper advice can't be given if you don't give the proper information. As long as the other rules aren't being broken by your post/comment, it's fine, the advice just won't be the best.

Violation reason: Not enough context, they are breaking Rule #7.
8

No Fake Stories or Rage Bait

Posts made solely to provoke outrage, start fights, or farm engagement may be removed. Moderators do not need proof that a story is fake if it is clearly disrupting discussion. This isn't Wattpad.

Violation reason: Fake/Rage Bait, They are breaking Rule #8.
9

Follow Reddit's Content Policy

All Reddit sitewide rules apply. Violations of Reddit's Content Policy may result in content removal or bans regardless of subreddit-specific rules.

Violation reason: Reddit Content Policy Rule, they are breaking Rule #9.
