When posting an article:

Please don't editorialize or sensationalize your submission title. Please keep your submission titles factual and opinion free. If it's an outrageous topic, share your crazy outrage in the comment section. 

Do not submit titles in all caps.

If your submission is relevant to this subreddit but removed for either of these reasons, you have the option to submit it again with an alternative title.

When submitting self posts: 

Humor, memes, "lower quality" posts, etc., are acceptable as long as you contribute higher quality submissions and comments to this community regularly. The mod team reserves the right to judge and remove posts on a case-by-case basis.

r/Troy also enforces the self-promotion rule: For every 1 time you post self-promotional content, 9 other posts (submissions or comments) should not contain self-promotional content. This is just a general guideline; intent and effort are considered as well as the quality of the self-promotional content.
