**The [10% rule](https://www.reddit.com/wiki/selfpromotion#:\~:text=You%20should%20submit%20from%20a,good%20member%20of%20the%20community.) applies for posting.**

- If you are posting the same sources more than 1/10 times, we will start to consider it as spam. We take into account your posts to all of Reddit, not just r/PS5.

- This is not limited to your own content, you can be in violation of the rules by posting content you are not directly affiliated with. If you violate this rule repeatedly, you and the website/channel may be banned.

##Official News
**Creating posts that lead to official sources such as dev blogs or official channels.**

- "Official" flair, means a post was made that links directly to a PlayStation website or channel.
- "News" flair, means a post was made that links directly to a games official website or channel.

##Media Posting
**By default, all media posting will be turned off.**

- For posting of images, gifs or videos (directly or otherwise) we will only turn this method of posting on during special occasions. This includes events such as highly anticipated releases and conferences.

##Events
**During events such as the State of Play, the subreddit will go on “restricted mode”.**

- Creating new posts will be turned off. Only mods and approved users will be able to make new posts. Typically, there will be a pinned “info and discussion” thread linking to the individual threads created. The sub is usually on restricted mode roughly 30mins before the event is slated to start. The sub will be turned off restricted mode after all the threads are created and organized in the pinned thread.
