- 3: Use the Daily QnA for simple questions: Questions that can be answered in one or two comments should be posted to the Daily Q&A. Please remind yourself before submitting a post whether the question is better suited there.
- 4: Must be about Elite Dangerous: Post titles, articles, videos, images and text, must contain *Elite Dangerous* content at all times. Posts about the following categories are allowed but must also discuss *Elite Dangerous*:
- Frontier Developments*, devteam, or officially licensed partners. * Major space/science events or discoveries. * Computing/sim peripherals. * Well-known CMDRs within the game's community.
- Use a text-post to ensure *Elite Dangerous* is the focus if a link title cannot suffice.
- 5: Follow Frontier's Terms of Service: Particularly anything under sections *"3. Licence Restrictions"* and *"4. Acceptable Use Restrictions"*. This primarily means that the following is prohibited:
- Promoting exploits or cheats, such as hacks or combat logging. * Monetizing *Elite Dangerous* content unless officially licensed. * Buying or selling copies.

- duplicating posts within 24 hours: To prevent flooding of the same post or content: exact duplicates or similar discussion topics in a submission will be removed if posted within a 24 hour timespan of another.
- To make our job easier, please report both posts at the same time so we can redirect easier.
- 8: Serious threads: Must contain `[Serious]` in their title. Comments that are off-topic, do not add to the discussion, or are provocative/aggressive in any way, will be removed without notice.
- Posts related to game-mode debates are required to use the `[Serious]` tag to ensure constructive discussions. * Misusing the tag will be removed: e.g. those not aiming to discuss a certain topic, or poorly thought out questions that can be quickly answered. * Posts may not use the tag to avoid criticism.
