Don't be a jerk. We are here because we love camping. Refrain from insults, attacks, bigotry, etc. - Trip Details Required
Trip details beyond location must be provided with all picture/video posts. Any type of information to add context is valuable. E.g. how did you get there, how long did you camp, what was the weather, were reservations/permits required, what tent did you use, what did you eat, how many people were with you, etc /r/camping is a place for conversation and sharing information. Drop-and-Run style posts are discouraged. Please stick around after posting and interact with the community. - No RV Camping
RV's, large trailers, large and small vans, campers, pop-up campers, and cabins are not allowed. Please take RV to /r/GoRVing or check out /r/vanlife. - Ads, blogs, websites

'Not Safe For Work' content is not allowed - No Surveys
Surveys and market research are not allowed as they are requested too frequently and are never popular. Do not ask the moderators about the possibility to post a survey. Please take them to /r/samplesize - No Short Links
No link shorteners. Link shorteners to Amazon products pages or any other websites are not allowed. The moderators have no way of guaranteeing the links are safe and they do not want to risk the safety of the community. - Low Effort/repeated question Post
All posts must show a minimum level of effort and thought. Vague or overly broad questions (e.g., “What’s the best tent?”, “Where should I go camping?”) will be removed unless they provide enough detail to encourage meaningful discussion or advice. This includes gear questions, location requests, and general tips/tricks. Posts that are too short, unclear, or look like they were written with little care may also be removed. Moderators reserve the right to remove posts they consider low-effort.
What the written rules don't show
- Unpublished minimums. Many communities remove posts from new or low-karma accounts through AutoModerator settings that are not on the rules page, often before a moderator sees them.
- Reddit's own filters. Reddit's site-wide spam filters can remove posts from accounts that mostly share links to their own site, in any community.
- The community's norms. Many communities see themselves as peers, not an audience: post where you already take part, and make the post worth reading without the link.
