Sexist, Ableist and Racial comments are 100% not allowed! Result in Breaking: Post Removed and/or 7 Day to Permanent Ban.

Result in Breaking: Post Removed and/or 7 Day Ban.
- No NSFW Posts.: Posts should follow the same set of [rules](https://booru.vineshroom.net/wiki/rules) that the Booru follows in regarding art and videos. (If the stream featured a scene then that specific video scene will be allowed within certain limits.) Result in Breaking: Post Removed and/or 7 Days to Permanent Ban.
- No Self-Advertising.: Advertising is not allowed on /r/vinesauce, the only form of advertising that is allowed is OC content which can only be related to Vinesauce. posting your stream or youtube is also not allowed, however. (Highlight videos of streams is fine as long as there are no ads placed on the video.) Do not try to sell Vinesauce related merchandise or otherwise unless you have a streamers permission. Result in Breaking: Post Removed and/or 7-30 day ban.
- No Unrelated Vinesauce Memes.: This rule is set in place to make sure that /r/Vinesauce doesn't become a circlejerk subreddit for Vinny Vinesauce. We enjoy Discussions about Vinesauce over Memes and shitposts. Here are some Dead/Unrelated Vinesauce Memes(not all as Memes are forever growing/made): * It's Hip to Fuck Bees * Grand Dad * Jojo * Mug Moment * Crypto Luigi * Memes from other streamers that aren't in the Vinesauce Friend group. Result in Breaking: Post Removed and/or 7-30 day ban.
- No Political Topics Or Throwaway ACCTs Allowed.: Please avoid posting any Political posts on /r/vinesauce. We do not allow any political discussion in our comment sections even if the post topic is partially political in nature. (Cheese Burger Freedom Man does not give you the incentive to voice your views.) As a rule to go alongside this is we do not allow ANY THROWAWAY ACCOUNTS! This means you must use a proper name that you are known as online if possible. Result in Breaking: Post Removed and/or 7 Day to Permanent Ban.
- Do Not Incite/Participate/Create Any Drama.: Drama is something that the Internet is known to create. As a getaway from general Internet issues, we discourage all posts that actively seek out to cause or spread drama.

- Do Not Post Official Vinesauce Videos.: Do not post any new videos from official Vinesauce channels, including official highlight videos or full streams. The reason behind this is that we have a Bot that automatically posts it for us. This is to allow an automation process and allows users to find the video as soon it's posted on Reddit. (Sometimes the bot is slow so please don't post it if you don't see a bot's Post of the video) Result in Breaking: Post Removed and/or 7-30 day ban.
- Be Considerate To Other Artists By Condensing Art Posts & Posting Sources/Credits.: While we enjoy everyone's art, we recommend condensing art posts if you plan to submit multiple pieces of artwork in a day. We also require any posts that aren't made by the poster to properly source/credit the original artist. Posting a reply with the artist's username & source is acceptable. If your posts MUST be separate please wait 24 hours till your last art post was posted to post the new piece of art.
- Avoid being Parasocial.: This Subreddit is meant for Vinny Vinesauce & other streamers that he collabs with. They are not your friend & they don't want such posts being directed at them or about them. Things To Avoid: 1. Being overly sensitive about how a streamers feelings was over a game/topic/person. 2. Submitting Photos of yourself in a post that could easily be just the object of highlight. 3. Sexualizing the person either via implications of wording or via art. Result in Breaking: Post Removed and/or 3 Day Ban.
- Moderators Can Remove & Ban At Their Own Discretion.: Not everything can be easily labeled as one rule or another. This rule is made for when a user exceeds the scope of our expectations or because recent events have made an old topic unwelcome to be discussed. Examples: Twitter / X links Result in Breaking: Post Removal
- Follow The Reddiquette & Reddit Site Rules.: Please read over the Reddiquette and Reddit's global rules! If you break a Reddit rule, Reddit admins may Ban/Shadowban your account. * Reddiquette: https://www.reddit.com/wiki/reddiquette/ * Site Rules: https://www.reddit.com/rules/ Result in Breaking: Post Removed and/or 1 Day to Permanent Ban.
Works well
- A highlight video of a Vinesauce stream moment, edited by you, with no ads placed on the video
- Original fan art of Vinny or the Vinesauce crew, posted with the artist credited, or bundled into one post if you made several pieces
- A discussion post about a recent stream moment or a video game release that Vinny has been playing
- A genuine question or conversation starter about gaming news that the community would enjoy debating
- Original content you made that is clearly and directly related to Vinesauce, shared from your regular account
Avoid
- Posting your stream or YouTube channel, which the self-advertising rule forbids outright
- Dropping a link to your product or service with no Vinesauce connection, which counts as advertising and gets a 7 to 30 day ban
- Selling Vinesauce related merchandise without a streamer's permission
- Posting an official Vinesauce video or highlight, because a bot handles those automatically
- Using a throwaway or fresh account, since the political rule also bans throwaway accounts entirely
- Sharing AI generated videos, images, or music, which the off-topic rule discourages in favor of human made content','Posting dead memes like Grand Dad or memes from streamers outside the Vinesauce friend group','Starting or joining drama about the video game industry or stream bans','Getting political anywhere in the comment sections, even on a partially political post','Posting NSFW art or videos
What r/Vinesauce Is For
This subreddit is about Vinesauce and Friends. People come here to talk about what happens during the streams, video game news, and new game releases. The rules say everything has to be about Vinny Vinesauce and gaming discussion, with one exception for streamers and content creators who are Vinesauce adjacent or friends of the crew. So the room is mostly fans of Vinny and the wider Vinesauce group, sharing clips, art, thoughts on streams, and general gaming talk. It is a fan community first, and the rules make clear that discussion is valued over memes and shitposts.
Rules That Matter Before Posting
The rule that decides almost everything for a marketer is “No Self-Advertising.”. Advertising is not allowed here, and the only exception is original content related to Vinesauce. Posting your own stream or YouTube channel is not allowed either, and highlight videos are only fine when there are no ads placed on them. Selling Vinesauce related merchandise needs a streamer's permission first. “No Off-Topic Posts.” matters next, because everything has to be about Vinny Vinesauce and gaming discussion, with an exception for Vinesauce adjacent streamers and content creators. “No Unrelated Vinesauce Memes.” tells you the community prefers discussion over memes and shitposts, and it bans a list of dead memes plus memes from streamers outside the Vinesauce friend group. “Avoid being Parasocial.” bans posts directed at streamers as if they were friends, photos of yourself where the object alone would do, and sexualizing streamers in words or art. “Do Not Incite/Participate/Create Any Drama.” removes callout posts and industry drama, which is a common trap for people promoting by stirring things up. “No Political Topics Or Throwaway ACCTs Allowed.” bans political discussion and also bans throwaway accounts, so you must post from a proper account you are known by online. “Do Not Post Official Vinesauce Videos.” matters because a bot posts official videos automatically, so you should never beat it to it. “No NSFW Posts.” applies to art and videos, and “Kill Each Other with Love, not Hate.” bans malicious comments and personal attacks. Finally, “Moderators Can Remove & Ban At Their Own Discretion.” means things like Twitter and X links can be removed even when no other rule covers them.
What To Post
A good post here is original content that connects to Vinesauce in a real way. If you make something, a tool, a video, a piece of art, it only fits if it is genuinely about Vinesauce, and even then it cannot be your stream or your YouTube channel. Highlight videos of streams are fine as long as no ads are placed on them. Fan art is welcome when you credit the original artist, and if the art is yours, condense multiple pieces into one post or wait 24 hours between separate posts. Gaming discussion about news and releases fits the description directly. Thoughtful discussion about the streams does better than memes, because the rules say the community enjoys discussion over shitposts. Whatever you post, use your real established account, not a throwaway.
What To Avoid
The fastest way to get removed is to advertise. Posting your stream, your YouTube channel, or your product with no Vinesauce connection breaks the self-advertising rule and can earn a 7 to 30 day ban. Selling Vinesauce merchandise without a streamer's permission is also banned. Off-topic posts get removed, so anything not about Vinny Vinesauce or gaming discussion is out, and AI generated videos, images, and music are discouraged in favor of human made content. Dead memes and memes from other streamers get removed. Political posts and throwaway accounts both get removed, and the throwaway ban is absolute. Drama posts like callouts or industry drama can earn anything from a 1 day to a permanent ban. Official Vinesauce videos get removed because a bot posts them. NSFW content, malicious comments, and parasocial posts about streamers all get removed too. Art posts need sources and credits, and if you post multiple pieces separately you must wait 24 hours between them.
