That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

We setup on Blahaj because when we were trying to setup AccidentalRenaissance, we didn't know we were one letter over the arbitrary 20 letter limit on community names, and there wasn't even an error message for it, so we were pounding our heads against the wall trying to figure out why we couldn't setup anywhere on any server.
And we didn't make a big fuss about who we were either. We were just looking to setup an instance. Just some randos as far as anyone knew. So we asked for help.
The admins of Blahaj personally told us what the problem was and when I asked if it was an absolute limit they said it wasn't, and raised their limit. Just for us. Some random-ass strangers. They changed their server just so someone wouldn't have to shorten their name.
So that's how Blahaj scored AccidentalRenaissance.
Given how many actual Renaissance artists were legitimately, deeply, obsessively queer? Yeah, it fits.
