your thread as it doesn't meet the rules of submission guidelines that we have to adhere to for this subreddit about sourcing or vendor advertising.

Please read the rules located in the sidebar as well as read the text of the stickies posted every Sunday and Wednesday, which are the only two threads where posters can ask these questions. Sourcing questions and advertising posts present the greatest risk for us to get kicked off reddit as they’re the most common source for people to attempt direct deals; allowing even one deal to be facilitated on this subreddit is reason for administration to ban us permanently. We are only able to allow sourcing questions by exploiting the technicality that we are discussing other websites, namely, .onion/darknet markets. Only by confining all sourcing questions and advertising to designated threads, we are able to assure that we not allow any illegal transactions to be arranged on this site and prevent the subreddit to be put into jeopardy.

This rule has been in effect for several months, but we also have hundreds of new accounts who join daily who don’t read the few but necessary rules that we have to enforce. A vast majority of sourcing posts come from accounts created that day, and getting people to read subreddit rules is difficult in itself; the growth of this subreddit is due to more and more people learning about markets we believe the sheer excitement of having discovered this entire system is the main source of people hurriedly creating accounts just to find out where to get what they’re looking for.

Please know that we are aware that this is not a popular rule, and despite our best efforts of trying to make people aware of the rules, and constantly tweaking the automoderator settings to prevent them from being posted; too many of them still get through and unfortunately aren't caught quickly. This makes it appear as if we are applying the rules arbitrarily or unjustly, but it is simply a function of there being an overwhelming number of them and a rapidly increasing growth rate we are having difficulty staying on top of. However, please know that we are actively working on a new system to try to curtail this problem.

Thank you for understanding the importance of our complying with the rules that we are required to enforce in order to operate, and please feel free to message us with any questions that you might have in clarifying the rules.
