Not a mod, but IMO if they actively engage with the community in discussing their product (rather than just a linkdump and go), and if it's not super frequent, I feel it should be ok.
rpg
This community is for meaningful discussions of tabletop/pen & paper RPGs
Rules (wip):
- Do not distribute pirate content
- Do not incite arguments/flamewars/gatekeeping.
- Do not submit video game content unless the game is based on a tabletop RPG property and is newsworthy.
- Image and video links MUST be TTRPG related and should be shared as self posts/text with context or discussion unless they fall under our specific case rules.
- Do not submit posts looking for players, groups or games.
- Do not advertise for livestreams
- Limit Self-promotions. Active members may promote their own content once per week. Crowdfunding posts are limited to one announcement and one reminder across all users.
- Comment respectfully. Refrain from personal attacks and discriminatory (racist, homophobic, transphobic, etc.) comments. Comments deemed abusive may be removed by moderators.
- No Zak S content.
- Off-Topic: Book trade, Boardgames, wargames, video games are generally off-topic.
Yea, that totally makes sense. I will wait a little bit longer to maybe get approval of a mod. In general I think it would be a great way to get lemmy out there a bit more and to draw rpg developers to reddit. The developer I have in mind is very well connected and had some - let's say interesting - experiences with reddit hence I thought it would be the ideal moment to suggest to him to check out lemmy.
There's a few easy solutions, I feel. One is for the ttrpg creator to come here and be active, thus making them an active user allowed to promote themself once a week. A second is for YOU to promote their stuff so it's not self-promotion, then invite them to do the Q&A in the comments or something.
i think @sirblastalot@ttrpg.network is the only /c/rpg mod really active, so tagging him for any input on the community view...
Thank you!
