Announcement YouTube links & Crossposts are now banned in r/GetMotivated
The mod team has decided that YouTube links & crossposts will no longer be allowed on the sub.
There is just so much promotional YouTube spam and it's drowning out the actual motivational content. Auto-moderator will now remove any YouTube links that are posted. They are usually self-promotion and/or spam and do not contribute to the theme of r/GetMotivated
Crossposts are banned for the reason being that they are seen as very low effort, used by karma farming accounts, and encourage spam, as any time some motivational post is posted on another sub, this sub can get inundated with crossposts.
So, crossposts and YouTube links are now officially banned from r/GetMotivated
However, We encourage you to Upload your motivational videos directly to the subreddit, using Reddit's video posting tool. You can upload up to 15-minute videos as MP4s this way.
Thanks, Stay Motivated!

Oh poo, and I found a great video from someone else I thought might have helped some folks.
Is there a "Get advance approval from the mod team" exception available?
