SUBREDDIT NEWS Subreddit Rules Update

6 Upvotes

Hey everyone! We have recently made some adjustments to the rules of the subreddit. They are as follows:

  1. A new rule for relevance has been added.
  2. "No Scamming" and "How to Report Scammers" have been combined into one rule that prohibits scamming and public accusations.
  3. "Comment on Posts if Interested and Move to DMs Afterward" has been removed. This rule was not enforced and it is up to your discretion. We highly recommend that you follow this but it is not a rule that we will punish people for not listening to.
  4. The rules have been reordered.
  5. Grammatical changes have been made to certain rules.

EXTRA UPDATE: The "OTHER" post flair has been removed.

If you have any questions regarding these changes feel free to comment them or contact Mod Mail and we can discuss them there.

Hey y'all! One more update to our rules: A new rule 1 has been created that spells out our policy regarding Reddit account age. We noticed that it was not in a clear spot for all to see and that was our mistake. We apologize for that. This change should lead to less confusion regarding this policy. Every other rule has been pushed down.

Thanks to the discussion in this post we have added some new user flairs to this subreddit. The following flairs are available:

”I Will Help With Anything”
”Heist Player”
”B2B Player”
”Business Grinder”
”PVP Player”

I have also created one called “Editable User Flair” which is there for you to make your own. Put whatever you want in there as long as it is safe for work and not offensive.

I have also set this subreddit so that you can assign your own user flair. Platform flairs are available as well.

If you have any suggestions for more user flairs based on play style, please let me know :)

SUBREDDIT NEWS New Rule - No Begging

63 Upvotes

I have seen that this community is against begging. Recently, a post was made that asked for a new rule. I said if that post reached 100 upvotes I would create a rule, and it has. So, here is the new rule:

Begging for money, heists, or other activities is prohibited. Begging can be defined as repeatedly asking or pleading for handouts, usually without offering anything in return.

This rule is effective immediately and will hopefully decrease the amount of begging posts on this subreddit.

Happy heisting!

SUBREDDIT NEWS Tips to Avoid Scams

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone! A new widget has just been added to the sidebar (New Reddit) or about (Mobile) of the subreddit with some tips to avoid scams.

They are as follows:

  1. Check the Scammer List for a user's in-game username (Social Club/PSN/Gamertag) to make sure they are not a known scammer.
  2. Only play with users who can comment their usernames on your posts or have their usernames in their post title/body as known scammers cannot include their usernames in post titles, post bodies, or comments.

This widget will hopefully reduce scams so please read it :)

I was thinking about making a rule for this subreddit that would require posts asking for help to have a title explaining what OP is asking for rather than just "Help" or "Help Me." Please let me know what you think. Should we have the rule?

SUBREDDIT NEWS New Rule - Titles Must be Descriptive

11 Upvotes

After examining the results of my poll I have added a new rule to this subreddit: Titles Must be Descriptive

Rule 10 states that a post's title must include the activity that the post is about. If you need help with a heist, title the post accordingly instead of just calling it "Help."

SUBREDDIT NEWS Advertise Your GTA Crews - ClanFinder.gg

1 Upvotes

Hey Fellow Crew Owners!

I am proud to announce that https://ClanFinder.gg has finally gone live!

After trying to use some of the clan finder style sites out there, it was apparent the sites either stopped getting updated or the owners didn't care. I also found many of them didn't support GTA Online!

This is only the 1.0 launch for us, so there are new features already in the works to make ClanFinder.gg even easier to advertise on and promote your communities to the world. You can create a clan profile for free and nearly any modern-day multiplayer game you can think of can be chosen.

We are committed to keeping the site updated with the latest releases and if you ever have feedback or titles you need added a contact form is on the site. We hope you enjoy it!
