- Full build list requests must have relevant information: This includes: budget, use-case, country of purchase, peripherals needed, and other requirements / preferences you have.
- Lists generated by AI / LLM may be removed, especially if fixing them is considered more work than starting fresh
- No piracy or grey-market software keys: This includes suggesting, hinting, or in any way implying to someone that piracy, or violation of license agreements is an option. If a license key is abnormally cheap (think $5 - $30), it is probably grey market, and thus forbidden on /r/buildapc.

- No submissions about hardware news, rumors, or reviews: Submit hardware news, rumors or reviews to /r/hardware.

- No submissions about retailer or customer service experiences: Submit retailer or customer service experiences to /r/PCRetailers. This includes talk about RMAs, retailers, sales people and all other things retail.
- No titles that are all-caps, clickbait, PSAs, pro-tips or contain emoji.: This includes titles containing emoji, asking to be upvoted or not upvoted, PSAs, LPTs, "protips", "reminders" and all other common tactics attempting to draw extra attention to the title.

Price evaluations should be requested through /r/hardwareswap's Discord server. Discussions of privately buying, selling or trading hardware and/or software are not permitted.
- No excessive posting (more than one submission in 24 hours): To prevent spam and allow everyone to receive they help they want, only one post per 24 hours is permitted. If you are unhappy with the attention your post got, you can make a top level comment in the daily questions thread, otherwise wait until 24 hours have passed before posting again.
