Can you post your project here?

Self-promotion posts are not explicitly banned but should not be spam. Submissions need context and must have a 2+ sentence 'Submission Statement' explaining relevance. Misleading headlines and content-lacking self-posts are subject to removal.

Before you post: Posts must have a 2+ sentence Submission Statement explaining relevance. Content must be contextualized and not spammy. Misleading headlines are disallowed.

The rules, in their words

1. Bigoted slurs are not tolerated.: Bigoted slurs are not tolerated.
2. Address the argument; not the user, the mods, or the sub.: Examples, **not exhaustive** of what this rules prohibits. * Labeling other users something they would not call themselves * Making any statements about the sub as a whole ("T_D 2.0", "r/politics 2.0," etc.) * Pointing out rule violations * Talking about the level of shilling within a thread * Criticizing the mods in regular discussion threads * Asking "What's the conspiracy?"
3. No blog spam/malicious web sites.: Any users caught deliberately advertising their own content without participating in the community in any other form are subject to a ban.
4. No stalking or trolling. No threatening or abusive language.: If you're going out of your way to reply to every comment a specific user makes, its stalking. If you're following someone around on reddit harassing them because they participate on /r/conspiracy, its stalking. Don't do it. Threatening and abusive language is covered under sitewide policies, but we reiterate it here for added clarity. You cannot make posts or comments that would make a reasonable person feel reddit or this sub is an unsafe platform.
5. No caps lock, excessive all caps, large/bold font, exaggerated punctuation.: No caps lock in titles other than acronyms/initialisms. Comments with a large percentage of all caps, all bold, all large fonts or text colors are considered 'shouting' and will be removed. This includes (((triple parentheses))).
6. No memes; use /r/ConspiracyMemes. Other image posts are subject to removal at moderators discretion.: No memes... use /r/ConspiracyMemes. Other image posts are subject to removal at moderators discretion. They have their own subreddit and are low effort content.
7. Posting link in other subs pointing here. Mocking or ridiculing this sub or its users on other subs.: Posting links in other subs pointing to specific submissions or comments here is subject to a ban, depending on context. Mocking or ridiculing this sub or its users on other subs may result in a ban here. Cross posting in subreddits which are focused on vote manipulation and trolling is subject to a ban. If you want to participate in other subs which mock this subs or our users, that's fine. If you engage in such mockery in these subs, we reserve the right to ban you from participating here.
8. Misleading, fabricated or sensationalist headlines are subject to removal.: Misleading, fabricated or sensationalist headlines are subject to removal. Make sure your titles reflect what your link is actually about.
9. Self posts that lack context or content may be removed.: Self posts that lack context or content may be removed. A post with nothing but a link will be removed. A post that doesn't have content will be removed. Make a point or ask a pertinent question and we're good.
10. Submission Statements are required for link and image posts. Posts w/o SS are removed after 20 min.: A Submission Statement is a 2+ sentence comment in reply to your post, in your own words, that describes why the post is relevant to the sub. A submission statement is a top level reply to a post that meets the following criteria: * 2+ sentences * written in OP's own words (i.e. not copied from the article or description) * explains why the link is being posted to /r/conspiracy or why the userbase should care about it. * Link posts without a Statement will be removed after 20 minutes
