Students: Post academic queries in our weekly Student Questions Thread, live every Sunday at 0600 GMT+0. This ensures a focused and valuable space for all business discussions. - Use the correct flair
There is a reason for each of the flairs on this sub. Ensure that you use the correct one as your post will be checked that it contains certain information based on your selection. Incorrectly flaired posts will likely be removed. - Be Real and Be Nice
Be respectful to your fellow community members and try to understand someone's point even if you don't agree with it. **ANYONE** who insults another member will be banned. Let's be gentlemanly/lady like to each other. If you can't do that, at least be civil. If you can't do either, out you go. - 'What Business Do I start?' posts
We see and reject so many of these posts and they are typicaly removed If you browse this sub, you will find hundreds, if not thousands of busines ideas. If you are going to ask the community 'what business do I start?' then you must include at least the following basic information: - Your available capital - Your skills and experience - Preferred Industry(s) - Preferance for Online or Brick and Mortar - Have you run a business these details are a **minimum** of what your post is to include. - No links to surveys
If you want to ask our community questions, then do so in your post. Do not link to external surveys without getting a moderator's 'thumbs up' first. You're welcome to post survey links in our weekly Sunday free-for-all posts. - Pay attention to u/AutoModerator
If u/AutoModerator comments on your post, it's likely prompting you to include information that would be helpful to other users and to give them more to work with when generating a response. If no such effort to include this basic information, your post will likely be removed. - Go easy on emojis
All human mods here were born before 1990; translation: we're all grumpy old farts who don't subscribe to the notion of inserting pictures into sentences. Don't go overboard. - Human replies only
There are some exceptions, like ideas for names, but for the most part, non-human responses are banned. Everyone has access to ChatGPT and if that the type of insight someone is after, they'll ask GPT themselves. GPT can *improve* (or translate) your response, but it must not have created it.
What the written rules don't show
- Unpublished minimums. Many communities remove posts from new or low-karma accounts through AutoModerator settings that are not on the rules page, often before a moderator sees them.
- Reddit's own filters. Reddit's site-wide spam filters can remove posts from accounts that mostly share links to their own site, in any community.
- The community's norms. Many communities see themselves as peers, not an audience: post where you already take part, and make the post worth reading without the link.
Let your AI read the rules before it posts.
ThreadFox reads a community's current rules, writes a post that fits them, posts once with Reddit's Brand affiliate tag and checks it stayed up. The free ThreadFox Lite reads rules too.
