Welcome to TooAfraidToAsk, a sub that's dedicated to providing a less restrictive question&answer discussion experience. We allow throwaways and do not remove 'google-able' questions. While your question may have been answered elsewhere, maybe its answer wasn't sufficient, maybe you didn't understand the answer or maybe you are looking for a discussion about the answer. At any rate, your question is welcome here as long as it follows our rules:

**Rule 1 - Be Kind.**

- No asking methods of suicide or self-harm, even hypothetically

- No providing methods of suicide or self-harm, even hypothetically
- No advocating harm against others
- No hateful, degrading, malicious, or bigoted speech against any person or group
- No personal insults

**Rule 2 - Be Helpful.**

- Top comments should try their best to be legitimate attempts to engage the OP
- Cite your sources
- De-escalate arguments if you can
- No medical diagnoses, please encourage OP to see a physician if you are concerned

**Rule 3 - Be Genuine.**

- No soapboxing, trolling, moralising, sealioning, or spamming
- Try to give OP the benefit of the doubt
- Don't question-shame the OP

**Rule 4 - Post Must Meet Certain Criteria.**

- Submissions must be in some form of a question
- Try to search the sub before asking or check the [Frequently Asked Questions](https://www.reddit.com/r/TooAfraidToAsk/wiki/faq)

Feel free to suggest ways we can improve. Feedback is incredibly helpful to us. Please be kind when you write in. We are people like you, doing our best.

Check out [our wiki by clicking here](https://www.reddit.com/r/TooAfraidToAsk/wiki/index) if you need further clarification, we have written much more detail into what constitutes our rules here.

All opinions are welcome as long as they are presented respectfully and follow the above guidelines. Rules here are kept more relaxed than our sister subs intentionally to allow as close to an organic user experience as possible. Automod uses reports to decide if a submission is removed and these are all reviewed by a mod within 24 hours. Bans are typically last resorts and the mod team maintains a strict open-door policy. New accounts are currently limited due to spam concerns, if you have a real post you’re trying to make, please write in so it can be approved. Do not hesitate to reach out to us about any questions, concerns and/or comments you have about the sub.
