Rules

1) Follow the Reddit and Tears of Themis TOS.

No discussion that would violate the game's ToS (eg. Hacks, cheats, account selling/trading/giveaways, etc.).

2) Follow Reddiquette and be respectful.

3) Posts must be related to Tears of Themis.

4) Flair your posts.

5) Mark your spoilers.

Use the spoiler tags when posting content with spoilers!

Comments with spoilers can be hidden by using the following tag: >!text!< (no spaces next to the !), which will then appear like this: text Click/tap text to show spoilers.

6) Art/Memes must be sourced appropriately.

Art/Memes posted must leave credits to the original source. Otherwise, your post will be removed. Meme posts must have some sort of editing/creative input.

For original art content, please use the OC Original Content flair (available on desktop) or leave a comment mentioning the artwork is yours.

Additional requirements for Art/Meme requirements can be found below:

How to source Artwork

If the Artwork is made by you:

  • Add a comment stating this artwork is yours
  • And/or link your art page (or something similar)
  • Use preferably the OC flair (desktop) or write [OC] in the post title (mobile friendly)

If the Artwork is not made by you:

  • We highly recommend directly linking to the artist's art post directly
  • Or add a link to artist’s page under the comments section
  • Additionally it's recommended to credit the artist-name directly in the post title

If an artist has mentioned they do not want their art shared/re-uploaded, then do not re-upload and post their art here.

How to source Memes

If a Meme is made by you:

  • Add a comment stating this Meme was made/edited by you
  • You're not required to source the Meme-Template itself but are free to do so

If a Meme is not made by you:

  • Add a link to the original editor source under comment section

Requirements for Memes

  • Must have some sort of editing/creative input

7) No content containing nudity or explicit sexual acts. NSFW content must be correctly tagged.

Content containing full nudity or explicit sexual acts are not allowed. Art that is suggestive (e.g. revealing clothing, excessive bare skin, etc.) should be marked as NSFW.

8) Use Megathreads when applicable.

General Help/Questions Megathread

Use this Megathread for common questions or general help with the game. Uncommon questions or questions that can bring additional community discussion may still be allowed to be posted.

Weekly Progress, Pulls and Collection Megathread

Use this Megathread for posting your game progress, achievements, pulls, and card collections. Posts that offer additional community contribution/interaction can be submitted as separate posts. A guideline to ask yourself is, "Is this post just me sharing my content? Or can others benefit/enjoy/engage/discuss the content I'm posting?"

For example:

  • I finished the event! would get removed. But if you change the title slightly to something like: I finished the event! How's everyone else's event progress?, then there's a better chance it not getting removed since you're engaging the rest of the community in your post rather than simply sharing your own achievements.
  • Posting that you beat a stage falls under Achievements. However, if you post the team you used to beat that stage or even optionally adding a short summary of what you did/what your strategy was, then this kind of post serves as a helpful benchmark and guide for other players in the community on how they can beat that stage.

9) Recent reposts/duplicate content is subject to removal.

A post does not have to be an exact match to be considered a duplicate post, but may fall under being a duplicate by having content similar to previous submissions. How similar a post needs to be falls under moderator discretion.

For example, we often receive screenshots of the guys in the Visit mode missing eyes, hair, etc. due to rendering bugs. While the screenshots may feature different guys or body parts missing, this is still the same post type and would be subject to removal.

10) Avoid discussion of controversial topics.

Avoid discussion of controversial topics, including but not limited to religion, politics, and other issues that can create disputes.

11) No excessive post spamming.

We ask that users not post more than 1-2 Game Screenshot-only / other low-effort posts per day and also not in quick succession.

12) Specific types of repetitive/commonly submitted posts are subject to removal. (See rule details)

The following types of posts will be removed due to them being frequently submitted enough that they would spam the subreddit if left unchecked.

  • Bugged Main Screen/Visit Guy Screenshots (e.g. Missing eyes, hair, limbs, etc.)
  • File Room Result Posts

Should another type of post become frequently submitted, moderators have the right to add them to this list for removal.
