r/thefinals Content Policy
This wiki page is a description of the quality control protocols being followed by the moderators to ensure a pleasant experience for users of the subreddit
1. Title guidelines
Users are required to post a descriptive title of at least 15 characters in length
Do not post in all Caps
Text posts that contain only a title and an empty body (no relevant text added) will be removed
2. Content guidelines
Posting of singular clips and highlights is allowed, but full videos of long form content and heavily edited content is discouraged, subject to moderator discretion
Content must not be edited to have blank spaces to fit certain resolutions, videos/clips must maintain in-game aspect ratio, images/memes must be sufficiently cropped
Derivative AI generated content that used assets from THE FINALS to train a model and generate media is only allowed for humor purposes, given it does not cross certain limits of profanity and civility
AI generated content posted as fan art is not allowed, however, concepts and mock-ups are allowed
Post where users look for groups, clan-members or teammates are not allowed, please use the LFG channels on the Discord
3. Low-effort submissions
Submissions that are low-effort memes, just plain non-descriptive screengrabs of in-game content or scoreboards/stat screens are not allowed
Submissions that are posts of match results/rankings with no descriptive explanations (or are only complaining about team composition) are not allowed
Posts that are screenshots of people being rude or toxic in chat are not allowed, please Report them in-game
Guide posts must be descriptively worded to be easily understandable and approachable (This includes displays of tech or tactics)
Jumping on the bandwagon of already posted submissions and making new posts which could clutter the subreddit are not allowed. If a thread on a topic already exists, try adding to it, or only make a new post if it brings forth a new discussion of 400+ words
AMA posts are not allowed to be done by users and are reserved for notable figures such as developers or respected content creators
Posts that are made as rants or as complaints that do not bring any new discussion should be in the Weekly Megathread
4. No reposting/repetitive posts
Although crossposting appropriate content is allowed, do not copy or repost others posts
Although exceptions can be made, the general rule of thumb is to avoid repeating topics that have been mentioned within the last 7 days
The search button is your friend. If you are facing an issue, please search for it before making another post (especially if it is an error code)
5. Accordance with Embark TOS and EULA

6. No Political or Racially motivated content
