Remember the human, on the other side of the conversation. In this local subreddit, there is no tolerance for insulting other people. Stick to discussing the topic, and not the redditor who disagrees with you about it.
Baseless insults about San Antonio are also not welcome.
This subreddit provides local advice. Detailed good advice is helpful. Replies intended to mislead or ridicule someone about the thing they asked about are not helpful.
Check out the front page before you post! If there's already a thread about a topic on the front page, don't start another thread about that topic! We want visitors to the subreddit to see a bunch of topics on the front page, not a bunch of threads about the same thing.
Posts in r/sanantonio should have a local angle; including things you're looking for, activities you want to do, advice about places to go, or general information about San Antonio.
If you're looking for a local solution to a problem that isn't local, say that when you start your thread
What is local? If you can drive from San Antonio to another place within an hour, you can post here about that place, too. But consider that another subreddit may give you better answers about that place.
We allow one self-promotional post on this subreddit for every 9 recent posts you make anywhere on reddit about other things. Any future self-promotional threads after the first one will be removed as spam, unless you demonstrate by posting frequently about other things that you are an active redditor. If that's not enough, please visit https://reddit.com/advertising for the alternative.
The Mods of r/SanAntonio will use their best judgement when it comes to sticking to the rules in their moderation activities. However we reserve the right to remove content that doesn't violate other rules simply based on a gut check.
The whole purpose of a title is to be an indicator of the content within the post. As such, please do your best to create titles that give a overview of what the post is about. Instead of "Help" try "Looking for someone to help me replace the engine in my car" followed by details in the post itself.
Memes posts should start with "[MEME]" and can be followed with whatever meme-y title you want.

Report spam and serious violations
Please report actual spam posted by accounts (or users with multiple fake accounts) that appear to only or mostly be here to make multiple posts promoting a business, service or cause. These will be removed as spam, even if the post is on topic for this subreddit. Reddit sells ads that help pay for the site to exist and we encourage those fakers to purchase them.
Also please report any serious violations of our r/sanantonio Rules, so the mods can take appropriate action.
