Launch rules

Fair launches, honest votes

The few rules that keep the board worth winning. They apply to every launch, free or paid.

One account, one vote

Vote with your own account, once per product. Votes from accounts made on the launch day count for nothing, from accounts younger than a week for half.

Share, do not beg

Tell your users you launched. Do not buy votes, trade votes or ask strangers in bulk for upvotes. Votes from one network count once.

No votes for yourself

Makers cannot vote for their own product, and votes from the network the maker used count for nothing.

Real products only

A working product with its own website. No courses sold as software, no scams, nothing unsafe or illegal.

Helpful comments

Comments are for questions and feedback. Spam and "upvote mine" comments are held for a moderator.

What happens when rules are broken

First the votes are removed, then the product comes off the board, then the account is closed.
