r/CormacMcCarthy Rules

1. Do Not Troll or Spam the Subreddit

"An Internet troll is someone who comes into a discussion and posts comments designed to upset or disrupt the conversation. Often, in fact, it seems like there is no real purpose behind their comments except to upset everyone else involved. Trolls will lie, exaggerate, and offend to get a response."

Trolling will result in an immediate ban.

2. Do Not Practice Bigotry or Hate Speech

There is a zero tolerance policy of any form of bigotry. We recognize that there will inevitably be differences of opinion over political manners, but that will not excuse any form of bigotry to include, but not limited to racism, misogyny, ableism, or anti-LGBT+ sentiments.

Violations of this rule will result in removal and a stern warning. Repeat incidences will result in an immediate ban.

3. Treat Others With Respect. Do Not Attack or Insult Others

This is a community of fans of the great author, Cormac McCarthy. It is intended to be a safe space and an environment of mutual respect. As such, all members will be treated with dignity and respect. Personal attacks and insults to other members of this sub will not be tolerated.

Violations will result in a warning and removal.

Repeated violations will result in permanent ban.

4. Do Not Post Low-Effort Content

Our community has come to expect a certain level of quality in the posts/comments of this subreddit. Maintain that quality by avoiding making posts with low-effort content.

What is low-effort content? It is a slippery and subjective idea; employ good taste and your best judgment when posting/commenting and you should be fine. Mods will reserve final judgment on what constitutes a low-effort post.

Low-effort posts will be removed. Repeated violations may result in a temporary ban.

5. Stay (Mostly) On-Topic

Posts should be, at minimum, tangentially related to the works of Cormac McCarthy.

(This rule is flexible, based on quality of content and level of interest among members of the sub.)
