This community is for mid to high level discussions about selling on Amazon and using their Fulfillment by Amazon service. The people posting here are Amazon sellers who want to talk seriously about the FBA side of their business. It is not a beginner room and it is not a place for casual Amazon shopping questions.
The rule called No AI Generated content is the first one listed and it carries an instant ban. The rule called Follow the promotional guidelines is the one that matters most for a founder, because it says any promotion of a website, service, or product you own or are affiliated with requires mod approval first, and breaking it means an instant ban with limited chance for appeal. The rule called Don't disclose buyer or seller identity protects personal information. The rule called Brag posts must have content requires that any success story includes a generous amount of content and context, and that bragging stays a small percentage of your overall posting.
A good post here is something you wrote yourself, in your own words, about a real problem or decision you face as an Amazon seller using FBA. It should be mid to high level, meaning it goes beyond basics and gets into specifics like inventory strategy, fee structures, or operational decisions. If you want to share a sales milestone, wrap it in a detailed breakdown of what you did, what you learned, and what others can take from it. If you ever want to mention your own product or service, you must contact the moderators for approval before you post.
Do not use any AI tool to write your posts or comments. The first rule bans all AI generated text and says it will result in an instant ban. Do not promote anything you own or are affiliated with without moderator approval, because that also triggers an instant ban with little chance to appeal. Do not share personally identifiable information about any buyer or seller. Do not post a brag without detailed context and helpful information, and do not let bragging become a large part of what you post.

No. The promotional guidelines rule says you must obtain moderator approval first for anything you own or are affiliated with, or you face an instant ban with little chance to appeal.
No. The no AI generated content rule covers both threads and comments and leads to an instant ban.
Yes, but only if you include a generous amount of content and context, and keep bragging to a small percentage of what you post overall.
The rules do not specify a link policy beyond promotion, so treat links as promotional if they point to anything you own or are affiliated with and get approval first.
