People conforming to the letter, but not the spirit, of a request. For now, this includes text posts, images, videos and links. Please ensure that the “malicious compliance” aspect is apparent - if you’re making a text post, be sure to explain this part; if it’s an image/video/link, use the “Body” field to elaborate.

This is some fun malicious compliance! I love the touch of having an open discussion to make it clear they're following guidelines

r/videos is currently only allowing posts that contain texts describing a video
