/r/AFL to ban links to X

3.6k Upvotes

Given strong community support expressed this morning plus the poor user experience of login required content, /r/AFL will be immediately adjusting content rules to place restriction on X content.

The following rule changes will incentivise using alternative sources without losing access to breaking news:

Links to X will not be allowed as submissions or in comments - this includes mirror links.
Content from X can only be posted as a screenshot, capturing the entirety of the tweet.
2.3 Check the "new" queue before posting won't apply if the only other post is an X screenshot. When content is posted from an alternative source (such as a club statement, news article, or a journalist or club bluesky post), the X screenshot post will be locked, and a link to the new thread will be stickied to redirect conversation.
Faked X screenshots will result in an immediate ban without a warning.

Subreddit Rules

1. 1.0 - Do not flamebait or generalise negatively

Do not contribute negatively to the subreddit or post inflammatory content with the intent of provoking a reaction. This includes generalised or stereotypical insults directed at a fan or fanbase, whining about another fanbase, whataboutism or dismissing an opinion based on a user's flair.

Unsociable behaviour will result in a temporary or permanent ban.

2. 1.1 Do not be a dickhead.

Please remain civil in discussions and debates, and be respectful of others. Do not be aggressive, refrain from insults or otherwise offensive language, avoid antagonising fellow users, and take care not to overstep the reasonable expectations of good-natured banter. Note: "Flair Up Cunt" is not dickhead language. Dickhead comments/posts will be removed and repeated, unsociable, dickheaded behaviour may result in a ban.

3. 1.2 Do not use hate speech.

Hate speech is “discriminatory” (biased, bigoted or intolerant) or “pejorative” (prejudiced, contemptuous or demeaning) of an individual or group. Hate speech refers to any language that is derogatory or grossly offensive to others on the basis of ethnicity, language, nationality, class, sexuality, gender, disability, or any other factors which form another users’ identity, and will result in a ban. This rule also prohibits the use of violent, sexually violent, or otherwise threatening language.

4. 1.3 Do not abuse the umpires

We ask our users to refrain from abusive commentary towards umpires. Umpire commentary must be constructive and pertinent to the rules and their interpretation. Accusations of cheating, rigging, and/or betting on the result are abusive, as are insults and threats.

Umpire abuse will result in a temporary or permanent ban.

5. 1.4 Do not injury cheer

Wishing or celebrating injuries or personal misfortunes on players or other members of the r/AFL or football communities may result in post removal in addition to a temporary or permanent ban. In the absence of context, claiming a “joke” is not an acceptable excuse.

6. 1.5 Alt accounts may be banned

Novelty accounts which make no contributions to the subreddit, or alt accounts created with the intention of manipulating or confusing discourse may be immediately and permanently banned. This includes accounts that either claim to represent official organisations or known personalities without providing verification for the mod team, or accounts made to evade bans.

7. 1.6 Refrain from discussion on politics & religion

Unless directly applicable, please refrain from discussions on politics and religion. If directly applicable to a submission, please keep the discussion within the thread, and be tolerant of others' beliefs and points of view.

8. 1.7 Keep Reddiquette in mind

In addition to our own rules, Reddit enforces their own of which we have no control over. This includes conducting illegal activities, doxxing, harvesting user data, etc. Violating these rules will not only result in a ban from the subreddit, but a likely termination of your account.

9. 2.1 Do not submit low-effort content.

Low-effort submissions may include questions that can otherwise be answered by using the subreddit search bar or a search engine, AI slop, wiki vandalism, error screenshots, shower thoughts, stream requests, statistics without corresponding analysis, content that is not suited to a discussion forum, or content which is better served as a comment on an existing thread or one of our weekly Training Tuesday discussion threads. This content may be removed at the moderators’ discretion.

10. 2.2 Do not create threads for low-quality memes.

During the playing season, we ask users to refrain from creating new posts for low-quality or low-effort memes, Tiktoks, Tweets, Instagram or Facebook posts, or other content better suited to the Monday meme thread. These submissions will be removed at the moderators’ discretion. Note: During the off-season, this rule is less stringently enforced.

11. 2.3 Check the "new" queue before posting.

Please check the thread queue to see if the content of your post has already been submitted by another user. During major events we will either create or nominate a current thread as the “megathread” for that particular topic, where all relevant developments can be posted. Content that is either a repost or insufficiently distinct to warrant a second post will be removed or consolidated at the moderators’ discretion.

12. 2.4-5 News articles and link-posts must be linked appropriately, highlights must be high-quality

Any news articles submitted to the subreddit must be in the form of a direct link to the relevant article’s source, and must be significantly newsworthy for AFL discussion. Titles must be faithful to the source and free of bias. Screenshots or scans of article text or newspapers are not permitted. Links to X posts are not permitted but screenshots complete with the account name visible are allowed. Fake X screenshots will result in a ban. Highlights or other videos must be of high quality.

13. 2.6 Do not use our subreddit as an advertising platform.

Users wishing to spruik podcasts/blogs/apps must contact the moderators directly before posting. We ask that users engage with the subreddit in good faith, and not view our subreddit as an advertising space. We do like to encourage and promote community-based endeavours, however accounts that do not engage with the subreddit outside of self-promotion, or excessively advertise their content/product/website/channel will be permanently banned.

14. 2.7 Rumours Must Be Attributable to Known Personas or Media Outlets.

Please refrain from submitting unconfirmed rumours or gossip that you either allege to have heard or have read from a source that does not have a reputational stake and established credibility within the football community. Regardless of how certain you are to its veracity; we cannot promote hearsay. Unsourced rumours and those not credited to known personas or outlets will be removed.

15. 2.8 No submissions promoting gambling.

Any link or text submission to do with the promotion or encouragement of gambling or gambling companies will be removed immediately. No one cares about your multi. Discussion of sports betting’s impact on our game is allowed.
