All 15 rules of r/gymsnark
- What counts as r/gymsnark worthy?
Any fitness-related business or Fitfluencer who sells fitness-related content, is branded a fitness account, or is sponsored by a fitness-related company. It is ok to post non-fitness related snark if the person is a fitfluencer. However, if the person isn’t a fitfluencer, the snark must be fitness related. Posts may be removed at mod discretion. - Do not dox/threaten/harass influencers or their families
Posting screenshots of DMs to any influencer will be removed. Do not post about messaging or commenting on the posts of influencers or affiliates or encourage others to do so. If you do and they block you, keep it to yourself. Do not contact sponsors or employers of influencers. Do not post personal information about fitfluencers. This is considered harassment. If you violate this rule your post will be removed and you may face a ban. Snark from afar. - Do not dox, threaten, or harass other community members.
Be kind to each other. Disagreement is okay, but abusive language and name calling is not. Malicious behavior with the intent to mentally or physically harm another community member is not allowed. This includes threatening, stalking, or posting private information about a community member or their families, and/or encouraging a community member to harm themselves or someone else. Failure to follow this rule results in a permanent ban. - No unflaired, ambiguous, or low effort posts
Posts MUST include the influencer/brand's name in the TITLE of the post, unless that influencer/brand has a dedicated flair. If you do not put the name in the title, your post will be removed. Posts must also include context. No "thoughts on..." posts without including your thoughts on that person/subject. - Identifying info (faces & usernames) of minor children & non-influencer adults must be censored
Please edit your screenshots before posting. Social media handles of non-influencers must be censored, including in the likes of an IG post. Minors and non-influencer adults did not consent to being posted online and posting about them can get our sub removed for harassment. If you fail to censor identifying info, your post will be deleted. - No Bigotry
While profanity is acceptable, r/gymsnark has a zero tolerance policy on content that is deemed racist, sexist, homophobic, transphobic, xenophobic, antisemitic, or ableist. Users will be permanently banned for breaking this rule and their comments and/or posts will be removed. - No pregnancy/fertility speculation
Do not speculate about a person's fertility. If an influencer has announced their pregnancy publicly then it may be posted as a congratulatory post only. Any posts or comments that go beyond this will be removed. - Appearance snark and shaming
We avoid snarky commentary around things about a person's appearance that they cannot change in a few seconds. This includes negative comments about a person's weight, face, belly button, boob job, stretch marks, cellulite, rolls, body shape, height, etc. Posts about camel toe will be removed (we don't need entire posts for this); individual comments are allowed as long as they are not vulgar. Do not snark on the appearance of children. - No mental health speculation
No one is qualified to diagnose anyone they have never met. Any posts or comments speculating about mental illness will be removed and the user given a warning. Calling out disordered habits is allowed, but do not simply state "she has an ED". If an influencer speaks publicly about their struggles with food, discussion will be allowed, snark will be removed. Posts discussing ED must be clearly labelled NSFW and with the Trigger Warning flair. - Repeat posts
Search before you post or sort by new. Repeat posts will be deleted. Do not post deleted information or resources to find it. Check the Wiki before asking for recommendations - your question may have already been answered. - No spam, AI content or self-promotion
Do not post spam, content written by AI or promote your own work. This includes link to personal shops, affiliate links, and crossposting from other similar subreddits. Do not advertise other subs without prior approval from the mod team. Check out the about section for similar subs to post non-r/gymsnark related content. - Misinformation around health-related topics
Misinformation will be removed and the user will be given one warning before being banned. This includes, but is not limited to, discussions on birth control, healthcare, COVID-19, monkeypox, vaccines of any sort and masks etc. - Don’t internalize the snark
Don’t internalize the snark. People come here to snark for a number of different reason but it is all focused on the person in question, not you. This isn’t about you. - No soap boxing
Issues with the mods should be sent to the mods directly. We are open to feedback and suggestions, but that doesn’t mean we deserve your disrespect. It’s not that serious, it’s just Reddit . The mods have no personal investment into any influencer or company posted in this sub. - Disordered habits/advice not clearly labeled
Any posts discussing disordered habits, tips, and tricks need to be marked with the NSFW tag (it’s an option as you’re creating the post), and IN THE TITLE you need to include either TW or CW so that it can be avoided by anyone who does not want to see it. Thank you for being a good community member and cooperating with this rule.
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.
