Is one self-promotional post on Reddit ok by your standards?

If one is ok, is 2 ok? How about 3? Where should we draw the line? Is it ok to make 1 self-promotional post every year? Every 6 months? Every month? Every week?

What if subreddit rules allow self-promotional content? Would posting there be ok?
