Subreddit rules check
r/rpg
Can you promote here?
The rules clearly permit sharing your own product or project. Follow the format norms below, disclose that it is yours, and lead with substance: allowed is not the same as welcomed for low-effort pitches.
From the rules · Active members may self-promote once per week; crowdfunding limited to one announcement + one reminder and use the correct promo flair or your post may be removed.
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: discussion, question, showcase
Headline: 'Product Name — one-line hook'. Use first-person, be explicit you made it, give context (playtests, table uses) and post as a text post with links/images included. Keep it helpful and community-focused (roughly 150–600 words). Upvoted: previews, design discussion, useful resources; removed: blatant ads, recruitment/discord posts, piracy.
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 July 2026. Rules change and moderators have the final say: verify at r/rpg'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.
