What this page is
This page quotes r/HingeStories's rules as ThreadFox read them on 2026-10-06. The quoted text is the community's; the verdict above is our reading of it. Conditions often decide whether a post fits (a required thread, flair, posting day, account age or karma), and r/HingeStories's current rules on Reddit always win over this page.
Free, for a specific product: a researched Reddit plan by email (communities whose rules fit your post, quoted and dated), or ThreadFox Lite, read-only tools an AI assistant can use to read a community's current rules itself, through your own Chrome (Claude Code: claude mcp add threadfox-lite -- uvx threadfox-lite). For an assistant that also writes and posts within each community's rules, the ThreadFox kit is $49 once.
Want to post here? Get ThreadFox ($49): your AI (Claude Desktop, Claude Code or Codex) reads a community's current rules, writes one post that fits and posts once from your own Chrome. No Claude? We'll post for you ($99 per 30-day campaign). Free: a Reddit launch plan for your product, ThreadFox Lite or the posting checklist by email.

What its rules say about promotion
Promoting Business/Pickup Artist Techniques
No promoting personal business or giving pickup artist techniques.
All 10 rules of r/HingeStories
- No stats without a screenshot of your profile
Any post on your stats need to include context of screens of your photos and prompts. - No tribalism
Lumping all men and all women’s behavior into one is not allowed. We want a health discourse between different people. Saying “why are men like this” “why are women like this” will get your post deleted. - No cross posting
All new post must be original. Linking to other subs is forbidden - Be civil and respectful
Name calling is never allowed, if someone is rude report the post - No personal ads or seeking a partner/companion
There is literally the sub r/r4r - Faces must be covered
Other than sharing your own profile for feedback and faces need to be covered/blurred of a profile you're sharing - Survey
No surveys without first getting permission from the mod team. - No Support Questions or Ban Evasion
The only way around a ban is a review by Hinge or buying a new device with a different phone number. We do not discuss ban evasion techniques here. - Promoting Business/Pickup Artist Techniques
No promoting personal business or giving pickup artist techniques. - Post need to have conversational value
Bragging, post having nothing to do with online dating and crowdsourcing post will be removed.
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.
