- Are written in English or Thai
2. Prohibited Content
The following content is not allowed and will be removed:
- Spam or promotional content: Unsolicited advertising, affiliate links, or self-promotion unrelated to beer discussion
- Fake reviews: Reviews for beers you haven't tasted, or reviews intended to artificially inflate or deflate ratings
- Hate speech: Content that promotes discrimination based on race, ethnicity, religion, gender, sexual orientation, or disability

- Illegal content: Content that promotes illegal activities or violates Thai law
