Questions regarding a couple rules.

Apologies before I begin due to my bartard questions or fallacies. Here are a couple Rules which confuse me,

4: No general sourcing submissions (Does this mean that I should not talk about posts that relate to /r/DNMsMegathreads?

7: No shilling (I didn't quite understand the concept about shilling on here, does that just mean bragging?)

Jesus Christ Its been 12 minutes and I cannot find the damn submit button.

update: I realized I couldn't find it because I had to submit by clicking that little blue hyperlink lol

Sourcing is when you ask people to give you vendor names shilling is when a vendor post reviews of his own products.

I would recommend that you go spend some time in /r/darknetmarketsnoobs for further education my friend. Be safe and read, read, read. Lurk more and talk less so you absorb plenty of knowledge to keep yourself safe.

Welcome to DNM.

"Rule #4: no sourcing," refers to straight-up asking for vendor names. In other words, you can't just come on and make a post asking "who's got the best acid." Rather, the proper way to go about it would be to do some research on your own (read reviews here, check market feedback, etc...) and then post a question like, "Out of these three vendors that I've found, who has the better product?"

"Shilling" is an act of, what you might call, advertisement. A shill is generally a vendor posing as a customer who puts up fake reviews for the purpose of generating business. Shills could also be from legitimate customers who were incentivized in some way to post a review, such as receiving extra product with their order or a discount on a future purchase. The term comes from the old snake-oil salesmen and other con artists who would have someone planted in the crowd that would help talk up the product or make it look like a rigged game could be won.
