The latest updates and discussion around Age of Empires IV. For Casual players and competitive players a-like.
The short answer
Be transparent, keep posts highly relevant to AoE4, disclose your affiliation, prioritize participating in community discussion before promoting, and respect the one-every-3-days / ~10% guideline.
What works here

- Occasional promotional posts respecting frequency limits
- Linking community resources
What gets posts removed
- Frequent or excessive self-promotion
- Using posts as pure ads or lead-generation
- Live-stream links except for large events
Where this comes from
View the current official rules on RedditSelf-promotion limit
The rules limit self-promotion to one post every 3 days and suggest only ~10% of submissions be self-promotional, so founders must limit posting frequency and share ratio.
Relevance requirement
All submissions must relate to Age of Empires IV, so vendor content must be clearly relevant to AoE4 to be acceptable.
Streaming restriction
Do not link to streams except large events, so promotional streams are generally disallowed unless event-level.
