Much needed MOD Announcement
Hello Everyone,
Hope you're all doing well, especially those affected by the recent unethical incidents in the sub over the past few weeks. We sincerely apologize for not addressing them sooner.
To improve the community experience, we’ve decided to modify the rules. Please review them below and share your input:
Increased Posting Requirements:
- Minimum karma required to post will be raised from 180 to 500.
- Accounts must be at least 90 days old to post.
- Other posts will be automatically rejected unless approved via mod-mail (e.g., ISO posts and seller feedback posts).
DM Transactions Disclaimer:
- If a transaction occurs in DMs, mods cannot monitor it.
- Buyers are strongly urged to do their due diligence before proceeding.
Trusted Seller Criteria:
- Users will be added to the Trusted Seller List only after receiving at least three appreciation posts.
Post Requirements:
- Every post must include batch code, expiry date, amount of usage, and selling price.
- Posts missing these details will be taken down.
Unboxing Video Requirement:
- Buyers must shoot an unboxing video for any claims to be considered valid. Without one, your claim will not be entertained.
- Sellers are advised (though not required) to record a boxing video for their own protection in case of disputes.
Invoice Requirement for High-Value Sales:
- If selling an item for ₹1500 or more, an invoice is mandatory.
- The invoice must include a watermark of your username.
Doxxing & Threats Policy:
- Any threats or doxxing (sharing personal information) will result in an instant permanent ban and a report to Reddit admins.
- This behavior is absolutely not tolerated.
Negative Experience & Fake Product Wiki:
- We will create a wiki listing negative experiences, banned users, and batch codes linked to fake products.
- Please share any batch codes from counterfeit products you’ve encountered.
Reselling Ban:
- Reselling is still NOT allowed.
- Anyone caught sneaking in products for resale will be permanently banned.
Format Violations & Username in Posts:
- Posts missing required details or failing to mention the seller’s username will result in:
- First offense: 7-day ban.
- Repeat offense: Permanent ban. No exceptions.
Poll for Manual Post Approval:
Regarding Rule #10, should we allow manual approval because of incorrectly formatted posts? Currently, many items are sold before mods can remove non-compliant posts, making deletions ineffective. Please vote in the poll and share your opinion.
Lastly, Happy Holi & have a blessed Ramadan! 🌸✨
