We have been seeing a big influx of memes and non Pic posts. This is a reminder that this community is meant for Pics which is just that - pictures taken with a camera. Any non Pic posts will be taken down and frequent infracture of that rule will lead to a temp ban.

We have also been seeing an uptick on Violent posts and manifestos. This is not the community for this type of post. No violent, NSFW posts are allowed. These will lead to an immediate temp ban. I understand with tensions today that people are rightfully upset about society, but there are other communities that allow such posts.

Any questions feel free to reply to this post or DM me. Happy posting.

IRL, a picture doesn't have to be a photograph. But see Rule 3? Any time you go to the Sidebar to create a post, there it is looking right at you. Here, I've copied and pasted it for you.

Rules:

1… Please mark original photos with [OC] in the title if you’re the photographer

2…Pictures containing a politician from any country or planet are prohibited, this is a community voted on rule.

3… Image must be a photograph, no AI or digital art.

4… No NSFW/Cosplay/Spam/Trolling images.

5… Be civil. No racism or bigotry.

Photo of the Week Rule(s):

1… On Fridays, the most upvoted original, marked [OC], photo posted between Friday and Thursday will be the next week’s banner and featured photo.

2… The weekly photos will be saved for an end of the year run off.

Well sure, a moderator can write whatever they want in the sidebar, that doesn't mean it makes any sense. If you like you can create a c/catpics and then put a rule in the sidebar saying we allow all content except for pictures of cats. Just because you CAN do that doesn't mean it makes sense to

Dude it's the rules. If you don't like them, make your own community. If you want them to be changed, be forthright about it and maybe make a meta discussion about it once to get a feel for it.

If you wanna post in this community, you need to follow the rules. It's actually pretty simple.

You clearly didn't read what i wrote. I said multiple times almost exactly what you just wrote.
