##COMMUNITY RULES

#####Rule #1:
**No Piracy / Illegal Topics**

No acts of downloading or uploading copyrighted data. Data you use must come from your Wii U console.

This includes (but is not limited to) suggesting to search, using personal messages, or any other act of distribution, providing links, names, key words, discussion (or assistance) of the following:

- Game / Update / DLC Data
- Encryption Keys
- Amiibo Figure Data
- ShaderCache Data
- Wii U Console Files
- Online Files
- Patron-only Release Files
- Any videos of the above.

Excludes: Saves

#####Rule #2: 
**"Can I run (game) on (this hardware)"**

If you really need your hardware questions answered, our #Hardware channel in the Off Topic section of our Discord Server will suit your needs.

Please do not post about Hardware or questions about what to buy on the subreddit. It's uninformative and does not help other members

If you have your Wii U, the game, and a computer - just try it out while following our Guide.

#####Rule #3:
**No posts about Game Mods**

We do not make or distribute mods. If you are encountering problems with them, ask in a relevant support area for those games.

For Breath of the Wild mods you can get help here: 

* https://discord.gg/jRMRv58

#####Rule #4:
**The YouTube Rule**

- Please do not outsource YouTube videos or creator channels as a way to "help" people.  Many videos that discuss issues are very outdated and can result in more problems than before.
- YouTube Content Creators are allowed to post videos with advertisements as long as it's considered quality content.
- Phishing for subscribers by posting pointless gameplay videos of random games is frowned upon and will be removed. Multiple occurrences of this will result in a ban.

#####Rule #5:
**Posts Must Be Informative**

Posts must be of reasonable quality and effort, and provide or seek information that isn't already available, or is not generally well-known.

Please follow the Pinned Announcement thread when asking for assistance or your submission will likely be removed.

Posts that remain unanswered for up to 3 days will be removed and the poster will be encouraged to repost with much more information than before.

#####Rule #5:
**Software Advertisement**

Advertisements for 3rd party software that do not monetize emulators are allowed, but only as their own post.  Not within comments of posts where the software was not the original talking point. This behavior is considered "post sniping".

Any 3rd party software that must be purchased to be used (or only deemed "usable" after an optional purchase) is not allowed, especially frontends for emulators; please refer to Rule 6 for more information.

#####Rule #6:
**No Harassment / Bullying**

No attempts at harassment or bullying towards other users.

* Purposely offending community members.
* Intentionally targeting community members.
* Rude or passive-aggressive behavior to bait community members.

If you are being targeted, use the report feature, do not respond yourself.

If you do not like something, you can express your view without attacking someone. 

*Harassing our staff in any way will result in your immediate removal.*

#####Rule #8:
**Cemu Only**

Posts must be related to CEMU; comments are subjective.
