im not clear whether the rules cover private messages at all given theyre private
#rules 2026-01-11
sellers dont get warned because sellers arent confused, theyre working
read the pinned five
*Medutest not the other one
ok so the pattern is helpful in public then a better price in private, and it only works in private
giving something away still counts under three, it went the same way as selling when someone tried
genuine question batches and documents are publishable, guesses about a named human at a company are not
update on the earlier thing what happens if you break one, is it a removal or a warning
fair pushback
not sourcing, fine
if you think youre being sold to, say it out loud where everyone can read it
thats rule one
unrelated but nobody will decide for you, thats the only thing consistently enforced
asking about a batch is fine anywhere, youll get documents in verification and opinions in here
i was wrong about this for a year. the rule isnt no naming, its no accusing
does rule two apply to mods as well
if someone messages me an offer privately do i report it or just ignore it
is naming a supplier that scammed me allowed or is that the accusation rule
reported a private offer once, it was dealt with in about an hour and nobody made a fuss
am i breaking a rule if i ask what dose someone else went to
rule one exists because every scam this place has seen happened in a private message
does the no advice rule mean nobody can tell me anything useful
whos actually enforcing this, is there a mod team or one person
does the no selling rule apply to giving something away
half the enforcement is members saying that sounds like advice, mate
grey area that one
does asking which vendor is cheapest count as sourcing
