We understand that this is platform that can lead to sales and new supporters/followers. And we want people who are apart of the community to be able to take advantage of this platform. So, we're going to clarify advertising rules because people try to skirt around them and abuse other tags in order to get eyes on their product.
So, let's be clear. You can only make an advertising post when you have community participation. This includes comments and/or submissions. Since we updated the advertising rules 4 months ago, we've had zero people meet this criteria. Have consistent comments and/or posts for a month and you can advertise. It takes time for clothes to be produced, while your clothes are being produced, participate in the community and you can advertise. Send a mod mail when you feel that you have met the criteria.
Submitting WDYWT posts only when you are wearing your brand or only when you have a new product drop is advertising. It will be removed and you'll probably be banned.
Submitting ART or DIY posts when you're trying to showcase an item for sale is advertising. Even if you don't link your website. It's advertising. If it is for sale in any capacity do not submit it. It will be removed and you'll probably be banned.
Commenting links to your website, stinky NFTs or crypto, or external communities like Discord will result in your comment being removed and you'll probably be banned.
