No low-effort or duplicate posts
Repetitive discussion, low-effort posts, simple opinion questions, and trolling fit under this category, and should be posted in the Daily Discussion threads instead. Remember to check the “New” queue first, and use the search bar. New posts that add nothing to a prior one on the same topic will be deleted. Memes are only allowed on "Meme Tuesdays" which fall on Tuesdays where we are not playing a midweek match. We allow new posts if they add new, trustworthy information on the subject.

No spam or self-promotion
Do not post spam or overly post your own content with the purpose of advertising without contributing to the community. We uphold the 9:1 content ratio, which means if more than 10% of the content you link is your own, you will receive a subreddit ban.

No toxicity, harassment, or trolling
Harassment, any form of -isms and incivility, and abuse towards others will be moderated heavily. This also includes abuse towards others’ opinions, tagging users for their opinions, and general toxicity. We are all entitled to our opinions, and this forum needs to remain the polar opposite of an echo chamber. If users can back up their opinions without harassment nor being incendiary, they are welcome to post them. Belittling others for their opinions, however, is not allowed here.

Do not troll other team subs

Do not troll other team subs
Trolling other team subs will result in a ban from their sub as well as ours. When deciding whether a comment or post is considered trolling we will often take input from the mods of the sub the comment or post was made in. We take this rule very seriously and may hand out long or permanent bans for the first offense.

No buying, selling or exchanging of matchday tickets, or discussions surrounding illegal shirts

No buying, selling or exchanging of matchday tickets, or discussions surrounding illegal shirts
You cannot ask to buy, sell or give away tickets (as we cannot ensure you will not charge for them later) anywhere on the sub. If you are interested in buying or selling tickets, please see the 'Tickets' guide and FAQ or visit the Official Chelsea Ticket Exchange. Also, illegal shirt sources hurt the club, and as such we do not condone discussion around them here.

No click-bait/editorialized titles

No click-bait/editorialized titles
This means no titles that require you to click on the article to find out the main contents of the article. An example of click-bait would be "Chelsea looking to sign promising young star". This is click-bait as you need to click the link to see what player this is so you'd need to change the title to include the name of the player. Even if this is the title of the article, you need to change it when posting here.

No unreliable or indirect sources for news/quotes

No unreliable or indirect sources for news/quotes
Please use factual and objective titles - nothing may be editorialized unless it's to give more unbiased context. Submissions may be removed if the title is too vague, or partisan. Reliable sources relates to transfer rumours, which you may refer to the rumour reliability guide - they must be tier 1 or 2 to be used as posts. Indirect sources are ones where a news aggregator or a middleman is using another story. Indirect submissions are not allowed here as it may miss vital information.

Please use the following format example: Chelsea [1]-3 Burnley - Player 68'. This includes the home/away teams on the correct side of the hyphen (-), square brackets around the score affected, followed by the scoring player and minute.

When posting team lineups, mention the players in the title

When posting team lineups, mention the players in the title
Simply putting "Lineup vs Bournemouth" for example isn't enough. A full list of the players playing (and if possible, subs) is required.

Self-flair your submissions

Self-flair your submissions
New submissions require the poster to self-select a flair that is most relevant to the topic of their post. This will ensure that we can categorize posts for organizational purposes, and to give the reader a better idea as to the contents of your post. Any blatant misuse of the self-flair (for example, choosing "Official" for a rumour) will lead to post removal, and bans for repeat offenders. If you are unsure, message the mod team or leave it un-flaired.
