Subreddit rules check

Can you promote here?
Promotion is allowed only with moderator permission (or inside designated threads). A short, honest modmail before posting costs two minutes and functions as a safe-conduct pass; skipping it is the most common avoidable removal.
From the rules · Current top post is an adoption/transfer announcement with explicit requirements to request the subreddit (90 days, 100 post & 100 comment karma, verified email, 2FA).
Links
No explicit link policy. Default to no URL: link-plus-young-account is one of the most common automated removal patterns on Reddit.
What this community rewards
Dominant post formats: discussion, news
Headline: short announcement or call-to-action. Voice: direct, first-person/collective or moderator-style. Length: very short post + brief explanatory paragraph or checklist. Tone: factual, neutral, instructive. What gets upvoted: clear community updates/announcements; what gets removed: off-topic posts or obvious spam/self-promotion without prior mod approval.
Arriving in the local format matters: cross-posting the same text everywhere reads as tourist instantly. The wider method is in the Reddit playbook.
Classified mechanically from the community's published rules and recent top posts, last checked October 2026. Rules change and moderators have the final say: verify at r/coloradoriverdrought's rules page before posting anything that matters.
Thread Otter checks this before every send
These profiles power the product: promo-banned communities never receive a promotional draft, drafts arrive in the local format, and a fact-check gate plus human pacing protect the account doing the talking.
