Rule summary
- Keep It Relevant: Content should directly relate to Rooster Teeth productions, personalities, or the community itself. Submissions about affiliated creators or collaborators are allowed, as long as there is a clear connection to Rooster Teeth. We will accept submissions promoting prior RT staff's future projects and productions.
- Privacy Matters: Sharing personal information and making speculations about Rooster Teeth staff, other users, or anyone else is strictly prohibited. This includes names, addresses, phone numbers, and private social media accounts.
- Be Respectful: This is a community for FANS. You don't have to like all RT productions, but you do need to respect the creators and your fellow community members. We encourage diverse viewpoints, but not at the expense of civility. Criticism should be expressed constructively and respectfully. Harassment, hate speech, and personal attacks will not be tolerated. This includes posts/comments gloating about the closure of Rooster Teeth. Such posts/comments will be removed and will result in a ban.
- Be Considerate: Follow proper Reddiquette at all times. Search the subreddit before posting to avoid repetitive topics. Low-effort posts like one-sentence questions, memes without context, or rehashes will be removed.
- Trolling and Toxicity: Trolling and negativity disrupt healthy discussions. You don't want them here. We don't want them here. Report such behavior and avoid engaging with it. We'll handle it from there. Just report it, and move on.
Works well
- A post sharing a new project from a former Rooster Teeth staff member, with context on the connection and why it matters to fans
- A discussion thread about a Rooster Teeth production that invites fans to share their own memories and favorite moments
- A long form appreciation post about a specific show or personality that gives people something to respond to
- A well researched post about a creator's next project, framed as fan news rather than an advertisement
- A search checked question with enough context that fans can actually answer it, not a bare one liner
Avoid
- Posting anything with no clear connection to Rooster Teeth productions, personalities, or the community itself, because “Keep It Relevant” gets it removed
- Dropping a one sentence question or a meme with no context, because “Be Considerate” removes low effort posts
- Reposting a topic that already exists because you did not search the subreddit first, which “Be Considerate” treats as repetitive
- Sharing staff names, addresses, or private social accounts or speculating about them, because “Privacy Matters” prohibits it
- Posting or commenting anything that gloats about the closure of Rooster Teeth, because “Be Respectful” removes it and gets you banned
- Attacking creators or fellow members instead of criticizing respectfully, because “Be Respectful” and “Trolling and Toxicity” both cover it
What r/roosterteeth Is For
This community is for fans of Rooster Teeth. The public description says everything old is new again, which tells me the room leans toward remembering and celebrating the studio's work rather than moving on from it. The rules spell out the audience clearly, content should relate to Rooster Teeth productions, personalities, or the community itself. Posts about affiliated creators and collaborators are welcome when there is a clear connection to Rooster Teeth, and the community even says it accepts submissions promoting prior RT staff's future projects. So the people posting here are fans talking about shows, creators, and the shared history of the studio, including where those creators went next.
Rules That Matter Before Posting
“Keep It Relevant” is the first gate, because your post has to tie directly to Rooster Teeth productions, personalities, or the community itself. “Be Considerate” decides survival on quality, since low effort posts like one sentence questions, memes without context, and rehashes of existing topics get removed. “Be Respectful” matters even for marketing adjacent posts, because it bans gloating about the closure of Rooster Teeth and removes posts that attack creators or members. “Privacy Matters” tells you never to share or speculate about personal details of staff, users, or anyone else. “Trolling and Toxicity” backs all of this up and asks people to report bad behavior rather than engage with it.
What To Post
The safest good post here is one built around a clear connection to Rooster Teeth. If you are following the future work of a former RT staff member, the community says outright that it accepts submissions promoting that person's projects, so a thoughtful share of a new project from a former RT creator fits the stated rules. Frame any post with real context, because memes without context and one sentence questions get removed under “Be Considerate”. Search the subreddit first to make sure your topic is not a repeat. Write like a fan sharing something you genuinely care about, keep criticism constructive if it comes up, and never center your post on yourself.
What To Avoid
Off topic posts are the biggest risk, anything without a clear connection to Rooster Teeth gets removed under “Keep It Relevant”. Low effort content is a close second, so skip the bare one sentence question, the meme with no context, and the topic that has already been posted. Never share personal information about staff, other users, or anyone else, and do not speculate about private matters, that is “Privacy Matters” territory. Do not gloat about the closure of Rooster Teeth, the rules say that gets removed and results in a ban. Skip trolling, harassment, hate speech, and personal attacks, and if you see negativity, report it and move on instead of engaging.
