Hello.

After chatting with the original creator, I was added as a moderator.

We are both in agreement that the spirit of this subreddit has strayed from its original purpose.

I'll be helping in cleaning up the subreddit and clarifying the rules going forward.

The clean up will include the following posts:

- Architectural buildings or neighborhoods

- Maps that point out out an already recognized and official border

- Any low-effort comparisons (bad data, humor based, poorly drawn, etc)

Also I'd like to encourage posters that if your map's narrative isn't clear enough, to post multiple images or write a descriptive paragraph to explain what you're illustrating.

There have been a lot of great posts in the recent months, and the growth here has been impressive. If your post was removed, consider posting in one of the sister subreddits. This includes:

- r/MapPorn

- r/dataisbeautiful

- r/geography

- r/visibleborders

The influx also spawned several meme based subreddits that you can continue the fun:

- r/phantomborderscj

- r/PhantomBorderShitpost

- r/okbuddyphantomborders

Remember Phantom Borders is about people united together by invisible bounds.
