Subreddit Rules
- Be civil and respectful: Offensive, abusive language, and uncivil behaviour will not be tolerated. Please maintain a high degree of professionalism during discussions and be respectful to other members; several of our members are seasoned professionals with numerous decades of experience. We welcome and value people of all backgrounds, specialists or not, to this community. Please do not post here with the intention of “sea-lioning”.
- Identification posts must be posted in the monthly thread: ID posts must be submitted as top-level comments in the monthly pinned thread. ID posts submitted to r/geology in any other way will be removed. Please take the time to read the pinned thread and provide the additional information that will help us identify your sample.
- No Spam: Please do not produce multiple submissions of similar content within a short timeframe. Use albums to submit multiple images at the same time, and linked comments to share any additional information relevant to your post, rather than adding a new submission.
- No AI-generated content: Do not post any AI generated content - be it text, images, video, or anything else.
- No Homework, Exam, or Lab questions: The moderator team believes that it is not the place for r/geology subscribers to answer homework questions. The first point of contact for help should be the course/school/college/university instructor who assigned the work. Obvious transcriptions and/or screenshots of this type of material will be removed.
- No pseudoscience, alternative medicine, or misinformation: Geology is a science, and this sub should exist as a platform for the appreciation, discussion, and criticism of testable science. Do not attempt to proliferate pet-theories and speculation as fact.
- Give credit for images, videos, and information: If you post something that is not original content, please try to give credit to the original source (as a linked comment, for instance). If an image or video that you are posting was captured by you, please using the Original Content [OC] tag during your submission.
- Self-promotion: Submitting original content is allowed, but please make it clear that it is your own content being shared, and be aware of the site-wide [guidance](https://www.reddit.com/wiki/selfpromotion) from Reddit on self promotion posts. Do not use this community as a platform for advertisement whilst otherwise not engaging in regular discussion. Do not post anything asking for upvotes/likes/subscribers, or containing paid promotional material - such content is cause for removal and potential ban.
- No Recent/Common Reposts: Please do not knowingly repost any material that has previously been submitted to r/geology. We acknowledge that things can be reposted unintentionally (we do not expect every poster to flick through the sub to see if it has been posted before). If you see something that you believe to be a repost, please report it so the moderators are alerted to this. Be aware that reposts could be removed by the moderators.
- Imagery of deadly disasters must have a geologic focus, and be posted with the corresponding flair: Deadly disasters happen in geology, and the geology of such disasters should be discussed. However, it is not appropriate to post excessively graphic imagery of such, or imagery that isn't focused on the disaster itself. Respect must be maintained for the dead.
- As well, for the benefit of the users of this sub, the NSFW marking is insufficient warning of such content, so it **must** be flaired with the "Deadly Disaster Imagery" flair.
- Moderator discretion applies: These rules are not exhaustive but are intended to cover most common submission and comment-related issues. The moderators have the ability to remove content where they deem it to be appropriate.
