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 · There’s a community megathread for approved tools and an explicit request to "be honest about AI use."
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: guide, showcase, discussion
Headline: start with game/tool name + ALL-CAPS tag (OPTIMIZED SETTINGS / OPTIMIZATION GUIDE) or a short project title. Use first person for creator posts; otherwise straight technical voice. Post length: short-to-moderate with bullet lists or pasted setting tables. Tone: pragmatic, data-driven; posts with concrete settings, benchmarks, or working links get upvoted. Avoid vague marketing — projects are tolerated when they include details and testing.
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/optimizedgaming'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.
