AITA Monthly Open Forum October 2025: Rules Update

r/

Keep things civil! Rules still apply.

When we rolled out the revised rules in at the end of July, we said we would keep adjusting as needed. And we have had regular internal discussions since.

While we don’t want to go crazy adding to the retired/banned topics, we have come across another one that we felt can be added. And after monitoring comments, it looks like the community generally agrees. The subject of splitting a dinner bill has now been added to rule 5. Please note – we’re talking about dining out only. Posts about travelling costs, etc. are NOT included.

As always, do not directly link to posts/comments or post uncensored screenshots here. Any comments with links will be removed.


We’d like to highlight the regional spinoffs we have linked on the sidebar! If you have any suggestions or additions to this, please let us know in the comments.

    Not sure if this the place to ask, but: Does the rule about “no armchair diagnosis” mean you can’t suggest that someone may have adhd or depression?
