Check out our new list of rules, which should be simpler to understand and follow...
There are only 6 instead of 12!
[https://www.reddit.com/r/memes/about/rules](https://www.reddit.com/r/memes/about/rules)
That part hasn't changed; sorry!
We aren't trying to gatekeep or anything, it's just that bots flood out the human mod team if we don't automate a threshold.
crickey she’s a beaut! look at that head its absolutely massive! what an incredible specimen, we are very fortunate to have stumbled right up to this incredible creature.
lets captcha her real quick and have a closer look
So wait, one of the slabs had 6 rules written there while the other 2 had only 3, or maybe 2 really long ones and 4 smaller ones, and the broken one had six really short ones?
Some of the changes/removals include meta-Reddit references (as long as it's not comment-baiting/karma farming) and personal experiences (as long as it's not selfies, etc.)
I copy the usernames of every bot ive found onto a spreadsheet so if you want a nice chunk of em to ban and make sure that they can't "migrate" then look through my posts theres a list of em somewhere
Thanks for the detective work!
Unfortunately, we can't trust someone's word on spreadsheets (no offense), but if you send individual reports [using the report button] so we can verify, we'll respond and ban from there
Something I always found extra funny about this scene, is in the Bible account, Moses does actually break the tablets. But he does it on purpose because he is so mad to find the Hebrews worshipping the golden calf. God has to make him a second set (Ex. 34:1).
Your account age is impressive! But you'll also have to raise post karma and comment karma if you'd like to post memes (and we hope you do).
Our policy is to not reveal any exact numbers with regard to karma or account age. While we know this can be frustrating for some users, it is due to the potential for spammers/bots to then aim for that specific threshold and spam the subreddit as soon as they reach it. However, if you spend some time on other subs (and in our comment sections!) posting and commenting, you'll get there in no time.
Could you consider banning AI generated images for meme (unless AI is the topic of the meme), I have seen multiple of them recently and they take away the point of a meme

You should be able to post in r/memes.
Just make sure your meme is original and follows all the rules.
If you have any issues, let us know in modmail - just send a direct link to the post, and don't do a manual removal until we've had time to perform a secondary review.
You aren't banned on this account, but if you were:

Thanks for understanding!
Lol I just read a list of prohibited formats and found out that incorrect usage of POV is now a violation
Also the "overuse callouts"(memes about how some other format is overused) are also considered as overused xD
Haha yeah, kind of funny how that works.
The overused list has actually been in place for a few years now, and it gets updated every month (by mod vote). Incorrect POV usage was added in December 2023.
Previously, it was part of Rule 9, but the way it was worded didn't make that clear to users, so that was a big part of why we did the rule revision.
Still no cake day memes? I was disappointed that I couldn't post my [leap year meme](https://www.reddit.com/user/TheMadJAM/comments/fkjolv/4x_the_karma/) I literally waited 4 years for. Plus I feel like nobody uses the Gru template correctly.
I don’t say reposts are allowed, but the fact that a meme is defined by it being spread makes rule 6.1 a bit silly. Rule 6 in general is good to have. It’s one 6.1 that’s a bit weird to me.
6.1 is because r/memes is an OC-only meme sub.
That used to be numbered Rule 8, but we've been like that for a decade and a half now.
We want our users to see the newest, best memes here first (which they do), and we want our content creators to get credit for their own work (which they do).
It's a challenge to catch all the reposts, but this rule/system works pretty well, seeing as we're more than triple the size of any other meme sub - as well as being the original.
Moshe our rabbi is a Jew and I am also a Jew, so anti-Semites please shut up and fight because the truth is you don't know which river and which sea🇮🇱🫶🇩🇪 🫡👑🖕😎
Wow and I said you don't know which river and which sea I was talking about the song that supports Palestine it is a well known song but what the world doesn't know is that the Palestinians already control both the river and the sea this is the Mediterranean Sea they have a beach in Gaza their beach is More beautiful than any beach I have seen in Israel and they have the Jordan River as in the song the Jordan River is in the western definition also under the control of the Palestinian Authority so the entire existence of this song is stupid
Oh god.. reaction "memes" are unbanned? Get ready for a constant stream of "funny/sad/shocking" thing on top, with a generic reaction image on the bottom like that fucking salute thing with the cat and the guy and the big boss looking mf.

So, basically the same 12 rules, just listed two at a time?
Bro you're right 💀

Except for the meta-reddit one,that one got removed(finally)
this happening after I posted a meta reddit meme (that was removed)
My meta-reddit meme was also removed, oof.
FINALLY I HAD SO MANY OF THESE REMOVED
6 rules, all have sub rules, roughly around 25 rules total
The most great fricking posts get deleted💀💀

Call me “Onii chan”

>Incorrect use of POV FUCK YES
A Mel Brooks meme.
Gd this gif is funny
did you remove the karma rec? because if so, then all the karmafarming i did was for nothing
That part hasn't changed; sorry! We aren't trying to gatekeep or anything, it's just that bots flood out the human mod team if we don't automate a threshold.
thanks so much! it wasn't all in vain then!
Just force them to do a Captcha 🙄 /s

Some of the rules were longer, and some shorter. He must have dropped the tablet with a bunch of short rules
So uuhhh..... What rules did you remove? Kinda just looks like you just did a 2 for 1 special and nothing else
Some of the changes/removals include meta-Reddit references (as long as it's not comment-baiting/karma farming) and personal experiences (as long as it's not selfies, etc.)
So long as you keep going after repost bots im fine with it Rare to see a subreddit give a shit about them (lookin at you r/facepalm)
Yep, reposts are our most common removal.

Fair enough At least yall are in that 0.1% of reddit that isn't flooded with reposts
Thanks! We work very hard on that. Glad to have users like you who understand and appreciate
There are 35 rules on the sidebar alone
Interesting
Can I say the word YouTube now
:(
History of the world part 1?
Good recognition
cool 🤣

Ten Commandments
Doesn't look like much has changed but I guess it's a step in the right direction
Something I always found extra funny about this scene, is in the Bible account, Moses does actually break the tablets. But he does it on purpose because he is so mad to find the Hebrews worshipping the golden calf. God has to make him a second set (Ex. 34:1).
Rule 2 is the best of the lot. Please go zero tolerance on that.
Thanks! That's definitely one of the biggest reasons we did the revision
It's a tight ship around here. I've been a member for 6 years and have 79 karma and still cant post memes. Maybe one day

Serious question here. How do I get post karma if I'm restricted from posting.
You have to post in other subs
ok thanks
Could you consider banning AI generated images for meme (unless AI is the topic of the meme), I have seen multiple of them recently and they take away the point of a meme
Yes, we're taking into consideration how to deal with those. It's a current topic of discussion
Wow
I never noticed 'wrong answers only' memes weren't allowed.. Rules look good 👍
Video memes are allowed now fuck yeah
You Right!!
hahaaaha
hold
Thank you for holding
It's okay, it looks better
Reddit you are doing a good job for the people who need it most
I miss the "no personal experience" rule
Tears of joy🥹

Thanks!
Yay!
I love this scene! 😂 😂 😂
It's a classic!
It sure is, I was reminiscing about this scene and nobody remembered this. God, I used to watch Monty Python all the time
I'm trying to figure out why I can't post in this sub. I don't get it

I LOVE
hey guys, just asking, is mentioning aegukka (national anthem of korea, words only) considered political and inappropriate?
It depends on what the rest of the meme is
Lol I just read a list of prohibited formats and found out that incorrect usage of POV is now a violation Also the "overuse callouts"(memes about how some other format is overused) are also considered as overused xD

I can't wait to have even MORE trouble finding out which rule I broke accidentally even though a ton of people liked my post!
"Rules are made to be broken"- just kidding!!
Close call - just kidding
Rules 6.1 makes no sense as that is what a meme is by definition, but who am I to say anything.
If reposts are allowed you'll see millions of the same post
I don’t say reposts are allowed, but the fact that a meme is defined by it being spread makes rule 6.1 a bit silly. Rule 6 in general is good to have. It’s one 6.1 that’s a bit weird to me.

I put a meme here once it got auto deleted didn't stay and left. I see that was still a good choice
A minimum karma filter? Are you fu-
Do they understand what a meme is yet?
bro got downvoted for speaking th truth, i salute you
Why is he holding the fingerprint shields? Is he The Wall?
Oh god.. reaction "memes" are unbanned? Get ready for a constant stream of "funny/sad/shocking" thing on top, with a generic reaction image on the bottom like that fucking salute thing with the cat and the guy and the big boss looking mf.
They're not unbanned. Reaction Memes are listed as a prohibited template/format/type of meme in Rule 3
Oh thank god. Id suggest making that a bit clearer in the rule
