- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).

The problem with that is that always leads to two things:
Anyone who talks about limiting people from having children will inevitably lead to that conversation. It's a literal non-starter for anyone who thinks even a fucking bit.
