MODERATORS
 

I am attempting to clean up the rules. Hopefully, nothing egregious comes up that warrants adding more rules.

Three rules were removed as they did not make sense to this community.

  • #2 Post only appropriate deals
  • #7 Giveaways have conditions
  • #10 Storefront-specific Rules

Changed Rule #3 from "Use our title format" to "Use established title formats"

The original rules were copied from an external source. I am hoping the rules to this community evolve naturally, including any pains or mistakes.

Those changes make sense to me :)

So what would be the established / acceptable format for a Nintendo Switch deals? Is this platform appropriate for the community?

My suggestion would be to start with platform [eShop] or [Walmart]. This format may organically change over time.

The community is small at the moment so console deals are ok. Eventually, a user will want a more console focused community and create one. Organic community growth, hopefully.
