Can you promote in r/eu5?
A place to share content, ask questions and/or talk about Europa Universalis V, a grand strategy game by Paradox Interactive. This community is unofficial but supported by the developers.
The short answer
Participate normally, answer questions and add a brief transparent disclosure if you mention your product; limit self-promo to at most one submission per week and seek moderator approval for surveys/giveaways.
What works here
- Answering community questions and engaging in discussion
- Occasional posts about relevant tools/projects (observe 1-per-week self-promo rule)
- Official Paradox/dev accounts participating
What gets posts removed
- Repeated/uninvited advertising or multiple promotional posts within a week
- Running giveaways, surveys, or petitions without prior mod approval
- Posting content not directly related to Europa Universalis
Where this comes from
View the current official rules on RedditSelf-promotion limit
Users may only make one self-promotional submission per week, so founders should limit promotional posts.
Giveaways/surveys require approval
All giveaways, surveys, and petitions must be approved by moderators first — do not run them without permission.
Topical relevance required
Posts must be directly related to Europa Universalis; irrelevant promotion can be removed.
Community accepts official accounts
