Happy New Years, folks!

We'd like to start off the new year by gathering some feedback about the state of the subreddit. We've grown quite a bit over the past few months, and would love to hear your ideas about the sub.

In particular, we're interested in hearing your thoughts on:

Chest Posts

Until now we've generally allowed some chest posts, but we're considering only allowing them in dedicated threads when new locations drop, as they tend to be repetitive and low effort. This also ties into self-promotion, as we have had issues in the past with people spamming chest video compilations from their YouTube accounts.

Leaks and Rumors

Currently, we generally allow leaks and rumors, as long as they're properly spoiler tagged. That being said, we also ask that people do their due diligence in checking sources, and update threads as new information comes out/rumors are debunked or confirmed.

Basic Questions

This is a big one, and the vast majority of removed posts fall under this category. Generally speaking, all questions about teambuilding and character building are directed to the weekly megathread. This includes things like "What artifact set for x? Should I use x sword or y sword? How do I solve this puzzle?" etc.

Self-Promotion

We've been cracking down on self-promotion over the past month or so by enforcing a TL;DR rule. Over the next several weeks we plan to expand the example page/re-work the wording of the rule to make it a bit more clear what we're asking for.

Anything else you'd like to see/change.

Please let us know if there's anything you'd like to see, like dedicated megathreads, polls, flair changes, etc.

I know 2020 has been a rough year for quite a folks, but here's hoping you all had a lovely New Years and have a wonderful 2021. May your artifact rolls be good, and your 5*s plentiful.
