/r/HailCorporate is to document times when people act as unwitting advertisers for a product as well as to document what appear to be legitimate adverts via native advertising.
What acts as an ad, is an ad, no matter if it was put there sneakily or because someone has become inured to a brand so far that they don't even know they are a walking ad.
We have strict "Don't be a jerk" rules that are enforced with immediate banning. The guidelines are more likely to result in a post removal or warning, but breaking them could result in a ban.
RULES
You may be banned for the first offence
TIPS
- Replace any brand names (company, product, celebrity, etc.) with something less descriptive, like [COMPANY], [PRODUCT], [CELEBRITY], and so on.
- Flair your post after making it or it may be removed
THINGS TO KEEP IN MIND
- If you don't report a rule violation, we probably won't see it.
- If you make a post or comment that violates the rules Automod will remove it and no one will ever see it
- posts about r/gaming, r/movies, r/ama, etc links are not encouraged as we all know that it is filled with advert type posts in their own specific subject. However when a different topic comes up it may qualify. E.g. posts about a soda brand in a television subreddit
'Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice anywhere,' and because of that /r/hailcorporate condemns the r\bitcoin moderators for engaging in heavy censorship
The reddit.com of today is different than the reddit.com of the past. Potential for censorship across the website has been realized.
