Subreddit Rules
- Stale topics: Topics on our Stale Topics list are banned as they have been discussed many times. [Please see here for our stale topics.](/r/popheads/wiki/index/stale-topics#st) Certain [comments](https://www.reddit.com/r/popheads/wiki/index/stale-topics#wiki_banned_comments) are also banned to increase the quality of discussion. It is ultimately up to the discretion of the moderators whether a topic is stale or not, but you may message the mods if you feel the post was wrongly removed.
- Low Effort Discussions: Discussion posts should try to foster discussion, the body of the text post must encourage discussion or offer the original poster's thoughts. Comments must also explain their answers. Any discussion posts that ask for recommendations, help to make a playlist, or only ask for people to name songs/albums/artists that fit a certain criteria **without explanation/justification** will be redirected to the Daily Discussion thread.
- Non-newsworthy posts: Please only submit pop music news-related articles, videos, images or links that are topical and noteworthy. Though posts such as articles, videos, links or pictures consisting of non-newsworthy content will be removed, they are always welcome to be posted in Daily Discussion Threads. Please do not editorialize article or interview titles except for cases of major announcements. [Guidelines for teasers and Instagram posts.](https://www.reddit.com/r/popheads/wiki/index#wiki_rules_and_guidelines)
- Follow reddit rules/reddiquette: This is a given.
- Tabloid material: This subreddit forbids tabloid material that focuses on non-newsworthy drama, sensationalist content, and/or dubious sources. In order for gossip to be considered newsworthy, it must either be reported on by a major, reliable news source (reporting on the artist/event in question - not on reactions) or have been addressed by the artist in question. Please redirect your content to the daily gossip thread Teatime & Trending Topics.
- No Self-Promotional spam: Any self-promotional posts should be from established members of the community, and contained to designated threads. We take this very seriously, any spam will be removed and may result in a ban.
- Recent songs only: Only songs & videos released within the last 30 days can be posted. The sub only allows FRESH music after it has been officially released in the UK. This mainly refers to Friday releases; other posts are generally released worldwide. Always remember to use the 'Artist - Song' title format. Music videos are only allowed on or after the YouTube premiere time. Each user can only submit a maximum of 3 FRESH posts per 24 hours, with a minimum of 10 minute intervals between each submission.
- Keep things civil: Please do not come here for the sole reason of harassment/flaming. Keep things civil. Use of discriminatory language isn't appreciated. Posts that appear to be baiting arguments will be removed. Attacking other users will warrant a ban. Please keep negative "stan-twitter"-isms on stan twitter. This also includes adding unnecessary additions to news such as "self-proclaimed rapper". Do not try to incite stan twitter wars.
- No illegal media: Do not post illegal streams, downloads of songs/albums or any leaked media in general. Asking for or posting instructions on how you can get it is also not allowed. These are banned on reddit sitewide, and sharing such material endangers our whole community. If it was an honest mistake, please message us; we'll try to be as lenient as possible. Video clip posts from unofficial sources will be removed as well.
- Pop music?: We are purposely vague on what we consider pop, because it's a difficult genre to define. Usually we'll try to focus on more mainstream pop, but pop-adjacent artists are allowed. In general, the mods trust you all to post relevant music. Music will generally not be removed by a moderator unless it is deemed shitposty or too irrelevant to the subreddit. This rule is subject to moderator discretion, but if you feel a removed post was relevant please notify us!
- Reposts: Please check the subreddit for articles and streams that have been posted already.
- No Queue Flooding: Users can only submit a maximum of 3 posts per 24 hours, with a minimum of 10 minute intervals between each post submission. Too many posts on the same subject in succession may also constitute spam. This rule applies to all post flairs.
- Teatime threads should exclusively have tea: Teatime threads should only have news or your reaction to news. You not liking the last New Music that dropped isn't tea and belongs in the Daily Discussion Threads.
- Snark Subreddit Participation: Users who participate in a snark subreddit will be given lower tolerance for their behavior on popheads and users who participate in more than one snark subreddit will be banned once flagged by our moderator tools.
- Belongs in the Megathread: There is currently a megathread in place for this topic.
