### Subreddit Rules ###

#### 1. Don’t be a dick.
First and for most, be nice to each other. Some sassiness should be expected, because I mean, it’s Astarion, darling.
**Bigotry will not be tolerated and will result in immediate ban**. Do not take criticism of the character as a personal attack.

#### 2. Keep your posts related to the theme
Posts need to be Astarion related. This isn’t just some vampire appreciation subreddit. This is for obsessing over our beautiful Pale Elf. (And also appreciating the people who brought him to life)

#### 3. No ~~kink~~ shaming
This rule has been changed to just no shaming. This includes kinks, game play, mental health issues. Statements trying to explain healthy relationship/BDSM dynamics will fall under this rule. We are all adults here, no one needs to be taught about healthy relationship dynamics. This also includes any armchair diagnosis and statements invalidating other people’s trauma "a REAL trauma survivor would NEVER/ALWAYS ascend him"

#### 4. Mark posts as NSFW/ Full Frontal Nudity Flair
If your post is a little too sexy, please mark it as NSFW, if you're unsure, please mark it anyway. Failing to do so could result in the sub being banned. If this rule becomes too much of a problem we may have to revert to an 18+ community.
Full Frontal Nudity (formally “Extra Spicy”) flair is reserved for art or screenshots with full frontal nudity only(as in genitals). This is a trigger warning for people who may like NSFW content but don’t want to see actual genitalia.

#### 5. Don’t judge how people play the game
Be mindful of how you interact with people who play the game differently than you. This sort of falls under don’t be a dick but more specific. This game has many different paths and people play it many different ways. Don’t decide someone else’s play through is wrong because you did it differently. To expand on this, when engaging in the sub, do not make judgements about people’s mental health based on decisions they make or which route they prefer. Saying things like “I worry about ______ mental health” falls under this umbrella and will not be tolerated. 

#### 6. Please credit the artists
When posting art you find, please credit the artist. If you can’t find the original artist, please at least link back to where you originally found it. We want artists to know they are appreciated!

#### 7. No AI created content
All AI content has been banned. This includes screenshots of chatbots as well as visual media. This rule is the result of a sub wide vote.

#### 8. Flair your posts
Please use the appropriate flair for your posts so it's easier to navigate posts. Please refer to [this](https://www.reddit.com/r/OnlyFangsbg3/comments/1aku3tf/a_comprehensive_guide_to_ronlyfangsbg3_flair/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3) post for flair guidance.

#### 9. Mod may remove posts at their discretion.
Basically if we see a post/comment we feel needs to be removed, we will do so. Obviously if we remove something and you're not sure why, reach out and we will explain our reasoning.

#### 10. Don't be creepy about Neil
Sharing Neil content is welcome and encouraged, just remember he is a real-life human being, don’t be creepy about it. Be respectful with your posts and comments.
