Rules for Posting Guides on Our Community

1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.

2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.

3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.

4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.

5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.

6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.

To add to this, I also say come up with a plan to use your stockpile so that it doesn't just sit on the shelf for decades. Replenish what you use as you use it so that you discover that it expired long before you needed it.

I've also heard the recommendation for keeping a stash of simple grains and beans on hand with the intent of sharing every once and while during a crises. People are going to realize that you have a supply eventually, but if you convince them that all you have is meager offerings, the desperate are more likely to raid elsewhere for a better meal.

Oh, and I wouldn't rely on a rain barrel without some form of filtration. There's a bit of microplastic in every drop!
