What this page is
This page quotes r/DMAcademy's rules as ThreadFox read them on 2026-10-05. The quoted text is the community's; the verdict above is our reading of it. Conditions often decide whether a post fits (a required thread, flair, posting day, account age or karma), and r/DMAcademy's current rules on Reddit always win over this page.
Free, for a specific product: a researched Reddit plan by email (communities whose rules fit your post, quoted and dated), or ThreadFox Lite, read-only tools an AI assistant can use to read a community's current rules itself, through your own Chrome (Claude Code: claude mcp add threadfox-lite -- uvx threadfox-lite). For an assistant that also writes and posts within each community's rules, the ThreadFox kit is $49 once.
Want to post here? Get ThreadFox ($49): your AI (Claude Desktop, Claude Code or Codex) reads a community's current rules, writes one post that fits and posts once from your own Chrome. No Claude? We'll post for you ($99 per 30-day campaign). Free: a Reddit launch plan for your product, ThreadFox Lite or the posting checklist by email.

All 6 rules of r/DMAcademy
- Respect your fellow DMs
Comments that are aggressively sexist, racist, hateful, spiteful or just plain rude will result in a permanent ban. Disagreements are fine, throwing slurs or insults is not. - No Off-topic Posts
Only three kinds of posts are allowed here: DMing Questions, Advice, and Resources. - Resources must be a completed tool unless approved by the mods. If you would like to produce a resource on-demand, please message the mods for approval. Posts for the same resource are limited to once a month. - No AMAs. If you have experience to share, make an Offering Advice post with specific advice for helping other DMs. - Advice posts must contain the advice they are offering; no linking to blog posts. - External Links & Advertising are Restricted
Promotion, Advertising & External Links are restricted to active community members and must at minimum meet the following conditions: - All links must be described in detail. - For every external link/advertisement you share, you should be participating in at least 10 other conversations on the subreddit - No pay walls. For more details on how we interpret Rule 3, see [this post](https://www.reddit.com/r/DMAcademy/comments/1u3feqc/a_reminder_about_rule_3/) - No Discussion of Piracy
We as a subreddit and as people know it exists, but it doesn't belong in this subreddit. This game was created by hardworking people that have spent just as many hours creating this game as you have your world. Don't mention piracy or provide links to pirated content in the subreddit. - No Problem Player Posts
Questions about a Problem Player should be asked in the stickied megathread. Any posts dealing with out-of-game player issues will be removed. - No "First Time DM" or other Short Questions
Questions from first time DMs and other short questions should be asked in the sticked megathread. Posts asking simple or repetitive questions will be removed.
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.
Let your AI read the rules before it posts.
ThreadFox reads a community's current rules, writes a post that fits them, posts once with Reddit's Brand affiliate tag and checks it stayed up. The free ThreadFox Lite reads rules too.
