So last week I began watching videos about companies that claim that you can become a business person by selling the company's products to friends and family. I was horrified by what these companies did and got inspired to write a pet story about it.

The question I have is, will there be an issue if I post this story on Subeta via a pet profile?

I read the rules, and apparently you're not allowed to post, transmit, discuss, distribute, or otherwise promote content that is illegal.

I'm concerned because what these companies are doing skirts the line of legality (if that makes senses) and I don't want to get a warning.

My story implies that these companies are in the wrong, but I'm not sure.

Sorry if this is in the wrong area, but I feel this topic leans more toward "Help & Questions" than Pet Spotlight.

Summary: I want to post a story to make people aware of these companies, but I'm worried that it might be against the rules.

we can't help you with this. You need to submit a ticket with a link to your story to get a ruling from staff.

I mean, I can say that I think it would be fine, but if I'm wrong you're the one who could get in trouble, not me. And that would make me feel bad.

Ah, it's okay. :)

I'm waiting for a staff member to post here. I considered a ticket but I made this thread for other users to use as reference.

Know which staff members are best for something like this? Or what topic I should make a ticket under?

If staff posts here, it will usually just be to tell you to submit a ticket.

On the ticket page, just click "something else" - then in the subject, you could say something like rules clarification, or some such. Then pretty much copy what you said here :).

I've made the ticket, but I'm wondering if the answer could be mentioned in the pet spotlight FAQ.

Seems you've already got answers for your main concerns, but I know of something that might be of interest to you and help with researching your subject.

It sounds like you're talking about Multi Level Marketing schemes. You might enjoy r/antiMLM on Reddit, and get some ideas for your pet from it.

Neat idea for a pet. I hope you get to make use of it, and have a lot of fun with it. :D
