What its rules say about promotion
No self-promotion, advertising, or spam.
Includes links to personal fundraising pages, personal blogs, social media, etc. as well as general advertising, surveys, or spam.
No solicitations to sell/buy bibs, or advice on banditing races
Selling bibs and bib muling (having someone else run for you) are against the rules of almost all races, and create liabilities for the Race Directors (NYRR in particular will ban you from all future races if caught). Banditing races (jumping in a race unregistered) creates the same liabilities plus logistic, security, and resource issues. Any posts/comments soliciting these or requesting/giving advice on how to do it will be deleted.
All 7 rules of r/RunNYC
- Do not post other user's personal information.

Any posts/comments soliciting these or requesting/giving advice on how to do it will be deleted. - Do not solicit medical advice
This includes 'Has anyone else experienced this injury?' and 'How did you come back from this?' type posts. - Be Civil
Treat others with basic decency. No personal attacks. No suggestions of violence. Participate in discussions here in good faith. - No Low Effort/Generic Posts
Posts that do not generate discussion, are easily googleable, chronically repetitive, recent reposts, Strava screenshots, etc. will be removed at the mods discretion. e.g. 'What shoes do you wear?' or 'My workout today' or 'Does anyone else...?' - No Running Etiquette Rants
This rule is honestly just to keep the sub sane during marathon training season. Yes, many runners and clubs have poor etiquette. However these types of posts only serve to rile people up and create negativity.
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- Unpublished minimums.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.
