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.

Links

The rules clearly allow links. A plain-text mention still often outperforms a URL from a young account.

What this community rewards

Dominant post formats: showcase, news, discussion

Headline: short, descriptive — often starts with a feature or version (e.g., “V5 …” or “X — Image”). Use first person for image/showcase posts and neutral/third person for announcements. Typical post = one-line title + image or link; include prompts/settings in the comments. Tone is casual, enthusiastic, slightly technical. High-quality images, clear generation settings, comparisons, and practical tips get upvoted; avoid off-topic spam or repeated low-effort reposts.

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/novelai'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.
