What its rules say about promotion

Buying/Selling/Trading
Buying/selling/trading is prohibited (even asking about it). There are other subreddits for that.
All 7 rules of r/SNKRS
  1. Buying/Selling/Trading
    Buying/selling/trading is prohibited (even asking about it). There are other subreddits for that.
  2. Act Civil(ish)
    Act civil. We get it — sneaker talk can get heated, and some playful shots or banter are fine. But keep it in check: no excessive name-calling, abusive language, slurs, no harassment. If it crosses into personal attacks instead of discussion, it’s getting removed.
  3. Fakes/Replica Shoes
    No fakes. No discussion regarding fakes. There are other subreddits for that.
  4. No Legit Checks
    No posts asking whether a shoe is real or fake. There are other subreddits for that.
  5. Stick to Sneakers Content
    Keep posts and discussions related solely to sneakers and relevant content.
  6. Spam not allowed
  7. 6. Retailer Finds
    Any user that would like to make a post regarding a pair of shoes they found and/or purchased (for example: “I found these Military Blue 4’s for $75 at Ross!”) MUST be tagged with the location and name of retailer from said location. Example of an approved retailer find post: “Found these AMM 4’s at Ross (Philly)” Any posts not containing the tagged location and name of retailer 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  • Unpublished minimums.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.
