Hello again, and to all please have a Safe and Happy Halloween! Please read all of this.

Due to an increase in attempted spam, scammers posting off-Reddit links and Redditors that use automated posting hacks, r4rCalifornia is now a restricted community. New Redditors must be approved before joining the group, and new members must submit each post for approval before it will appear in the group. I am sorry for this, but the spammers and scammers have forced me to make these changes.

IMPORTANT! INSTRUCTIONS FOR POSTING:

If you have not yet joined r4rCalifornia and your Reddit profile is blank: You send me a MOD mail and tell me the name of the city you live in and your age. No one who lives outside California is permitted to join this community, no one under age 18 is allowed to join. If you request to join 4r4California without sending MOD mail, I will look at your Reddit activities and decide if you can join.

• 1. If you have not joined r4rCalifornia, push the blue Join button.
• 2. If you request to join r4rCalifornia, wait for approval.
• 3. After joining, push the Request To Post button. You will see the grey box with "Request to join". In that box, type a sentence telling me why you want to post in 4r4California. Again, if your Reddit profile is blank, you should include your city and age. You need to be convincing, or your request will be ignored.
• 4. Wait for approval, then read and follow ALL the rules before posting... if you do not do this, your post will be deleted, and you will be banned from the group. That is not me being mean or harsh, that is me looking out for the interest of and protecting all of the members of r4rCalifornia.

As always, please read all rules before you write a post.
