Post/Comment requirements + How to Solve issues When Your Content is Not Visible
How do I ensure my posts/comments show up - Simple. Tag the mods or message us in private. By commenting "/u/repknowledge, u/lindless," your post/comment will usually be approved within one hour. If that doesn't work, simply PM u/repknowledge or u/lindless with the link to your post.
The mods receive too many inboxes regarding post requirements, and I figured it should be re-addressed. There are a few reasons why your posts/comments may not show up, and I have listed them below. DO NOT MESSAGE MODMAIL ABOUT YOUR POST NOT SHOWING UP. PLEASE READ THIS POST OVER AND OVER UNTIL YOU UNDERSTAND.
Reason One - Your account does not satisfy Automod's karma requirements and therefore, your posts/comments will automatically be removed. Your account needs the following credentials to be functional here.
A) 10 post karma
B) 10 comment karma
If you do not know what this means, please google it. These requirements should take you 10 minutes to obtain.
Reason Two - You are linking a website that is not on the whitelist. If you feel that we are missing some key websites, please PM u/repknowledge.
Reason Three - Your post/comment contains a blacklisted seller and/or contains wording that will trigger the Automod.
Example One - Automod may think that you are trying to sell something and make your post disappear.
Example Two - We also have set words that will trigger the Automod. For instance, the N word. Any post/comment containing the N word will be removed by Automod. We have zero-tolerance for that type of ignorance here.
Example Two – You are trying to get around blacklisted content. Let’s look at Off White Factory, “O W F” “OWF” “@WF” would all be removed as well. If we blacklist something, there is a reason. We are not trying to censor our users. We are trying to protect our users.
W2C IS BEING FILTERED?! - There is not much we can do on our end. This is something on Reddit's end. Likely because you are linking a Chinese website that may be deemed as spam. To have your W2C link appear in the comments, first comment your W2C (likely will not appear), then tag one/two of the mods in a separate comment stating "please approve the W2C." Consequently, you can just upload the W2C into the Imgur Album.
How do I ensure my posts/comments show up - Simple. Tag the mods or message us in private. By commenting "/u/repknowledge, u/lindless," your post/comment will usually be approved within one hour.
If your ACCOUNT is the problem (maybe you don’t have enough karma or you are shadowbanned), then you will need to PM LINDLESS OR REPKNOWLEDGE THE LINK to your post/comment.
How do I ensure my posts/comments show up - Once again for the people in the back. TAG u/repknowledge and u/lindless IN YOUR POST AND IT WILL USUALLY BE APPROVED. IF THE COMMENT DOES NOT SHOW UP, IT IS LIKELY YOUR ACCOUNT. IF THIS IS THE CASE, PLEASE PM ONE OF THE MODS WITH A LINK TO YOUR POST/COMMENT.
DO NOT PM MODMAIL. I REPEAT, DO NOT PM MODMAIL.
I hope this is informative. If you have any questions, please comment below. I will be adding this to our sidebar under the newbie guides section.

You know one weekend not too long ago, I didn’t realise my post, which I had also posted on DesignerReps (TopMoncler’s badges vs Retail) weren’t showing in New here at all. I posted around 3/4 times over the space of 2 days and tagged Zat, Lindless and yourself repeatedly in each creation. It wasn’t approved until the third day after I believe the 5th attempt at tagging after around 4-5 hours had already passed so it never gained traction. Appreciate you guys all have lives but I’m not fully convinced tagging always works based on this experience. Nothing against you guys, just an honest recent experience.
This also happened to me. I deleted and reposted a couple of days in a row and the time it finally worked I only tagged one of the mods. I think reddit gets wonky when you tag multiple users.
Yeah reddit is weird about that stuff.
had the same experience as you. i have enough karma & had another QC post published just fine so i know my account's not the issue.
i tried submitting a big list of girls/unisex streetwear finds multiple times & tagged the mods but nothing got approved. when i messaged them about it they just told me to read the sidebar/guides. after about 8 attempts i just gave up.
kinda disappointing cause there's not much streetwear stuff over on r/repladies & would love to see some more girls finds over here!
Did you message modmail?
Modmail gets 500 messages a day because people spam it for unimportant things. Most of them aren’t even read tbh. You likely received a copy paste reply about reading the requirements.
This post states you should dm a mod (me) directly of you actually want help in a timely manner.
yeah i did, i just didn't wanna harass any of the mods personally tbh which is why i sent the links through modmail. will keep this in mind in future, thanks!
Sometimes mentions don’t hit our inboxes since they get filtered too (for some odd reason)
Usually if they do hit our inboxes they’re approved within the hour.
💯
That is why we have this option as well!

Sometimes I am busy. I have a real job and real hobbies. Although I wish I could be on my phone 24/7, I just can’t.
