  Community Guidelines
  

• Please read the detailled rules here!
  
  

  Please minimize
  

• "girl help/boy help" or dating advice posts. You're allowed to post them, but please consider whether another subreddit (ie, /r/dating_advice) would be more appropriate.
  
  
• memes/jokes/images. You're allowed to post them, but please consider whether another subreddit (ie, /r/adviceanimals) would be a better choice.
  
  
  

  Please do not
  

• Post self-help/positive thinking links that don't have anything to do with social skills.
  
  
• Recommend that others use medication for a purpose other than what it was prescribed for
  
• Post pick up/seduction/manipulation or related topics.
  
  
• No personal attacks or posts designed to offend. This is an insta-ban. If you think you were unfairly banned you are welcome to appeal, but I am going to ban first and ask questions later. /r/socialskills is a safe place for everyone, and anybody that threatens that safety will be quickly shown to the door.
