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 · Direct links to files or builds are often sensitive here — ask the mods or use an approved hosting method before posting executables/mod builds.
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, showcase, news
Write short, descriptive titles (event/name, WIP, or punchy first-person lines). Post in first person or as a clear declarative announcement; body length usually short-to-medium (one to a few paragraphs) with photos, clips, or technical notes. Tone is friendly, nostalgic and practical. What wins: event announcements/reports, progress updates, open-source tools, logistics questions. Avoid posting raw downloadable binaries or obvious spam — when in doubt ask the mods first.
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 September 2026. Rules change and moderators have the final say: verify at r/lanparty'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.
