We haven’t had a reason to ban anyone so we haven’t had a discussion around banning. But as of now, we’re only going to remove posts that we see as an ad or spam. I guess I shouldn’t have said "probably" but again, we haven’t mentioned banning anyone at all on this.
It is in the policy as “no ads”. I don’t want to be too granular on this because then people will find edge cases and workaround that’s technically not within the very specific rule. I prefer keeping it broader and only tighten up when it becomes an issue. The reason this post was made was because of a couple self promoted apps that popped up the last few days, so we decided to clarify on that specific point. I'd rather not go into details with every single topic unless we need to.
... so the only way to find out if something is allowed is to just post it and see if it gets deleted? Seems like it'd be easier for everyone (especially the moderator team) if people knew what was allowed upfront.
Agree to disagree. The rules have been working fine for us so far. The more specific we make it, the easier it is for bad actors to skirt around it. And, again, we will discuss/adjust if it becomes an issue.
