Community Policy
1. Purpose
This policy explains how we apply the Terms of Service to comments, reports, and restrictions in practice. If it conflicts with the Terms of Service, the Terms of Service prevail.
3. Investment channels
- Channels reported as similar investment advisers offer no interactive features with members (comments, replies, secret comments or comment likes).
- On other channels, too, we hide comments that urge readers to buy or sell a particular stock or promise returns.
- Don't ask for or give investment advice tailored to someone's financial situation in comments.
4. Secret comments
Only its writer and the post's author can see a secret comment. The operator opens a secret comment only when it has been reported, records the reason, and logs that it was opened.
5. Reporting
- Report a comment with the report button next to it, and a post with the report button below it. You need to be logged in.
- Copyright infringement follows the copyright infringement report procedure. You don't need to be a member to report it.
- If one person reports the same thing more than once, it counts as one report.
- We don't tell the reported person who reported them.
6. Actions we take
- Hiding: we hide comments that break these rules. If a hidden comment has replies, only a "This comment was hidden" placeholder remains.
- Unpublishing: if a reported post breaks the law or the Terms of Service, we unpublish it.
- Restriction: depending on how serious the violation is, we stop the account from commenting for 7 days, 30 days, or indefinitely.
- Authors can hide comments in their own channel. Only the operator deletes other people's comments or restricts accounts.
- We keep a record of every action the operator takes.
7. Appeals
If you disagree with an action, tell us why through the contact form. We'll email you the result of our review within 3 business days.
8. Changes to this policy
If we change this policy, we'll post it under Notices at least 7 days before it takes effect.
2. When you comment
We may hide the comments below or restrict the account that posted them.
