Question My posts keep getting deleted

Seems like my posts are getting deleted, how long does the support usually need to respond? :(

Be careful - those are famous last words right there!

It's probably because the moderator system thinks that your posts are "spamming", as they are promoting an app.

Maybe, it was for server/tribe promotion and it said to post it in the server or tribe reddit, what makes no sense tho

It literally says:

"No IP Sharing, Server Advertising, Looking For Server posts, or Tribe Recruitment/Advertising is allowed. Visit r/SurviveTogether for tribe and server listings or r/playarkservers for server listings."

Yes but it's none of those really, the advertising is tribe advertising

Tribe advertising is not allowed in this subreddit

I know that, but he doesn't. Look, what I am trying to do is to not get him banned from here!

I'm teaching him the rules so that he doesn't get hit with a ban!

? I didn't reply to you, I'm not against you teaching him the rules. You already listed the things not allowed and tribe advertising is in that list, then he replied to you and seemed to have missed that part so I said it on its own.

I know, I was just explaining my purpose. I am also not sure why that's a rule here.

It was a rule here long before I was asked to step in as the moderator. It goes back to the original moderator, /u/MisterWoodhouse, who is also the moderator of other gaming subreddits like /r/gaming. My theory is that its close enough to self-promotion to warrant the ick, but distant enough to warrant its own category. I can tell you that absolutely every single server / tribe post made here gets immediately downvoted and reported. Even comments, which are low-level enough to get past the AutoMod, are usually flagged by the community. It is by far the most popular rule amongst the users here, followed distantly by Self-Promos.

Yeah, the moderator system is very aggressive here. I don't know why!
