Conduct

Rule Enforcement

  • Moderating is to be left to the moderators. If you see a rule violation, report the post and move on.
  • Do not tell people to post timestamps, prices, title or body fixes.
  • A seller is allowed to post any price they feel is appropriate. Price policing will no longer be tolerated on HardwareSwap.
  • Bans will be handed out if moderators deem appropriate.

Liability

  • The moderators of the sub are not liable in the event you are scammed. We have provided numerous resources in order to prevent this from happening available on the wiki. A more detailed explanation of payment methods can be found on the wiki.
  • DO NOT post personal information, yours or anyone else's. This includes name, phone number, street address, email, etc. This will not only incur punitive action on /r/hardwareswap but get you banned from Reddit as a whole.
  • Trades with banned users will not award flair, and may be target of disciplinary action.
  • Posting or condoning the use of illegally obtained software or keys is forbidden and will result in moderator action taken.

Attitude

  • If you have any issues with a fellow trader, message the moderators here before making any post. Threads that have not been approved may be removed.
  • Being rude or harassing another member of the community is prohibited and repeated infractions will result in an immediate and permanent ban.
  • Thread crapping will not be tolerated. This includes but is not limited to leaving comments that instigate, are sarcastic, or otherwise derail threads from its purpose to buy, sell, or trade an item. In short, if it doesn't help the original poster make their trade, then you probably shouldn't be leaving the comment.
  • Buying/trading posts that are blatant lowballs, begging in any form, or otherwise considered low effort can and will be removed at moderator discretion.
  • Lying to a mod or any other user in the community is not acceptable. Lying to a mod will result in an immediate and permanent ban!
  • Do NOT follow a fellow user and downvote their posts. This is Vote brigading and is against Reddit rules, as well as HardwareSwap rules.
  • Any and all issues with a user or mod should be brought up in Mod Mail. Confronting a user in a thread is not acceptable and is not polite to the original topic creator!
