Posting Karma Requirements Clarification

18 Upvotes

Hello dear people of r/catpictures ,

We get a LOT of questions in modmail from people who have made a post that got removed by automoderator due to minimum karma requirements. To make it easier and more clear for everyone submitting a post, I have set the minimum combined karma requirement to 100. If you have at least 100 karma site-wide you can post, if you don't you can't post.

Spam bots and other karma-farming accounts like to use pet picture subreddits to gather karma, since we all see cute animals and upvote. So in the interest of preventing spammers from taking advantage of that there will be no exceptions to the rule. If you have less than 100 karma, go get some karma and then you can share pictures of your cat. Hoping this makes things simpler for everyone!

[Important] Do not post pictures of cats which aren't yours.

Stock images from the Internet and reposting from other subreddits isn't allowed here.

If you want Karma, go somewhere else, because this isn't the place for that. It'll be considered as spam, and you will be banned from the subreddit. If this behaviour continues, you will be reported to the Reddit admins, and will be shadowbanned, therefore.

Don't break the laws.

Meow.


Edit: /r/CatPictures browsers are kindly requested to 'report' pictures which they suspect being un-original. Thank you for your cooperation.

Tia is a 2 year old Maine Coon we got from a friend because her cats wouldn’t accept her. She’s currently chilling in her own room while she adjusts in our house and while our other 3 cats get used to the idea.

Con qué les gusta consentir a sus gatitos el fin de semana? Hoy domingo quiero darle un mimo especial a mi pequeña pero busco ideas nuevas que amen. ¡Las leo! 🥰

That moment when your cat looks at you like you've somehow disappointed her for the last 100 years. Queen Ronja. 😂🐾

hello, I am a new member here. I have three mini who I rescued from a very busy street. I love them more than anything. I did want to ask everyone a question just to satisfy my curiosity and to make sure that I joined a kind . AI just told me to be careful about joining here because users are very rude and mean. I have no idea whether that’s true. Any info you can give me would be appreciated.
