Rules can change, so Rankhog stores verification dates with each MDX page and keeps the original public Reddit sources visible.

Rule summary

  • Keep conversations civil: Respectful discussion is required. Personal attacks, insults, and doxxing are not tolerated.
  • Use weekly career threads: Career advice, salaries, resumes, and role-transition questions should go in weekly career threads.
  • No lead-generation self-promotion: Vendor blogs can be discussed only when they are not being used to generate leads.
  • Summarize article links: Article posts need an initial comment or summary that starts a real discussion.

Works well

  • Customer onboarding, adoption, churn, renewal, and health-score questions with context.
  • CS playbook discussions from SaaS operators and customer-facing teams.
  • Tool-selection questions that describe company size, motion, and workflow constraints.
  • Honest lessons from customer retention, expansion, or handoff problems.

Avoid

  • Vendor blogs posted without a useful summary or discussion prompt.
  • Lead-generation posts for CS tools, consulting, or agencies.
  • Career questions posted outside the recurring career threads.
  • AI-generated playbooks with no customer or operating context.
