Hello everyone.
We reviewed one of our guidelines regarding Spam and Self-Promotional content and have adjusted it to include a bit more as well as to note that the moderation team at N4G will be focusing more on moderating content directly and specifically to the guidelines as written.
You can find the update at https://n4g.com/user/blogpo... with the following text updated specifically as follows:
.: Spam and Self-Promotion Content
N4G does not allow any content that self-promotes a service or product, such as specific video game apps or gaming gear. We do not allow news about updates to a site, contests sites are running that are not sponsored by a developer or publisher, or similar content. Self-promotion includes having ads or links on other pages of the site that would self-promote a service or product.
N4G does allow game deal submissions but will fail any that are deemed to be less informative, minor in detail or purpose, and more about spamming affiliate links or the like that would generate revenue for the site in question. We also only accept links to official promotions from a platform that links directly to an official store page promoting the sale and not a news site listing each item in the sale.
Sites deemed to be made solely to advertise such things will be banned and prevented from submitting content altogether.

Final Fantasy VII 1997 exceeds 15.5 million units sold worldwide as of February 2026, reinforcing its legacy as the series best selling title.
NE: "We take a look at all the DLC ever released for main series Pokemon games since 2019 and rank them from worst to best."
There are over 30 ships in Star Trek Voyager: Across the Unknown, which include enemy and Borg vessels that have some fantastic on-board technologies and weaponry.
Do we consider this pattern as self-promotion?
Product X is great
To buy product X here's a link to their site
Link contains revenue sharing token
How about a site that says "20 best PS1 games of all time",
but when you click on the site, every game is a separate page with ads, and click on the next game is a page reload, counting as a web visit?
We all know what they are doing here.
Also off topic, sometimes you have a review of a game and only platform listed is Xbox... because reviewer played it on xbox.
...but he "forgot" to put all platforms in a preview page that the game is available on, promoting actually Xbox not the game.
That's N4g responsibility am I right? (That blue hashtags before -view the full story-click)
Don't get me wrong, they put only Switch also.
I lose interest, than later that week I find out the game is actually multiplatform and I can buy it for my system.
So with the update, are we still going to see the weekly Amazon Price Slash articles or will they need to change it up?
