New Reddit Sitewide Policies

I'm sure most of you are aware of the new reddit policies put into place today that restrict using reddit as a platform to sell or trade certain goods. Unfortunately, kratom falls within this blanket. It's like the kratom community just can't catch a break anywhere we go.

I made a short announcement post earlier but it was done in panic and haste. Now that I have more details of what's going on, I am going to expand on it and go into what is and isn't allowed here now that the policies are more clearly understood.

What This Means Going Forward

Going forward, kratom can no longer be sold here. You cannot advertise kratom for sale. There can be no more contests, giveaways, or talk about trading kratom. Threads or posts that advertise kratom for sale will have to be removed.

I am truly sorry to all the vendors who will be hurt by this. Thank you for all the giveaways and contests over the last 6 months. You guys are seriously the best. If it was up to me, you could continue to sell here until the end of time.

The sidebar and rules will be amended shortly. Additionally, some of the mods today spent hours combing through old posts to remove all advertisements so we could be compliant with these policy changes, so all advertising and sales posts should now be effectively gone.

The Future of r/kratomm

As long as we follow the no selling rule, we can still use this place to discuss kratom, talk about side effects, etc. Your opinions and viewpoints will continue to not be censored. That won't be changing. This will still be a free, open discussion forum for as long as we are allowed to operate. We are still determined to continue growing this sub as a great place to hang out and discuss kratom.
