- Shares must not be older than 11 days.
- Do not add shares that participated in previous contests.
- Strictly follow the deadline โ see the date and time at the bottom of the post.

The Updated HivePosh Rules
@acidyo asked me to clearly define the boundary that excludes AI-generated content and low-quality content from the Redditposh rewarding system and HivePosh contest. Doing so:
- AI-generated or plagiarized posts are not eligible for the RedditPosh rewards. We do not have the resources to investigate every post, and HiveWatchers are currently suspended, so our judgment will rely on community input. The opinion of the community takes precedence over the opinion of the author of the post and the sharer. We are a part of the community, and a good reputation for HivePosh is our priority.
- Posts must have the RedditPosh comment (or its substitute when the RedditPosh script failed) upvoted by @acidyo or @OCD to be eligible for the HivePosh contest.
- Posts with declined or burned rewards are not eligible for the RedditPosh rewards and the HivePosh contest.
- Posts shorter than 200 words (by PeakD count, not counting references) are not eligible for the RedditPosh rewards and the HivePosh contest.
- High-quality content (engaging, informative, well-written, and well-illustrated - "long" isn't a criterion of quality) may receive better OCD upvotes from RedditPosh curators than lower-quality content with the same traffic stats.
The rules may be updated next week to fine-tune the things.

Thank you for investing your time, energy, and inspiration in HivePosh! ๐
Looking forward to seeing your shares for HivePosh contest #55 in the comments section below strictly no later than 13:00 UTC on November 13, 2025.
In order to generate maximum views, don't hesitate to post your best shares on the last day (until 13:00 UTC). The only requirement is that every share must be no older than 11 days (as stated in the rules). If you aren't sure exactly when "13:00 UTC" is in your city/country, ask AI (Google Gemini, for example).
The drawing was generated with PeakD AI: https://peakd.com/ai
Right! Another new rule, that's good, this makes the competition less boring, and we can only improve and improve! Until this hiveposh will be sparkling shining :)
As we all know, not all of us are journalists in this team, but we are drawn to reporting and article writing as we navigate and learn Reddit environment. I am sure you know if you are a regular sharer. But we are learning as we move on.
Congratulations everyone on the good views, and hopefully we can find something we can share again for next week, as a good topic is the key. Lovely to see @flummi97 and @melancholic.bear back sharing again. And @davideownzall, @tsanks. @uwelang. @rose98734, let's go!
A big thank you to @x-rain for the report, and to @acidyo, @ocd and the whole team.
Have a lovely day!
I just wanted to share my experience writing my recent article. I read a study, summarized it in my own words, and then ran it through a few AI detectors. Some of them said it was written by AI, while others said it was human.
So, I tried adding a few small errors to make it look more โhuman,โ but thatโs not ideal since Reddit can be pretty strict about grammar and clarity, especially in health-related subreddits. Then I rephrased some of the medical terms to sound less technical, but that just made the writing sound awkward or dumbed down. Eventually, it passed the AI detector, and then I published the article. After publishing it, I copied and pasted it again into the AI detector, and it said AI!
What Iโm really trying to say is: why should we have to intentionally add mistakes or make our writing worse just to pass an AI detector? We should be able to write freely, as long as it doesnโt sound obviously robotic. Reddit values facts, and in many of the smarter subs, you risk being removed or banned if your post sounds careless or uninformed.
I do agree with checking for plagiarism; thatโs completely fair and important to protect original work and credibility. But this obsession with detecting AI feels unnecessary when the focus should be on the accuracy, clarity, and usefulness of the information being shared.
In most medical communities Iโm part of, everyone uses AI in some way, and no one cares, because what matters is the facts and the new information people can learn from. So itโs disappointing that weโve reached a point where these AI detectors are interfering with genuine discussion and slowing down the flow of the online โhiveโ ecosystem.
Check out this study that exposes the serious limitations of AI text detectors. They canโt be fully trusted to tell whether something was written by a person or AI, which means relying on them alone could lead to unfair or inaccurate conclusions. The accuracy of detection is inconsistent, and the author of the study concluded that there is no dependable tool for identifying AI-generated writing.
@acidyo and @x-rain, it is wasting content creatorsโ time to worry about whether their writing is flagged as AI, Please investigate what I am saying, it is true, and reconsider this reliance on AI detectors because they clearly donโt work and cause stress and delays to authors who feel they need to run all their works through these checkers, only to find that one passes the detection test while five others flag it as AI. It is complete nonsense, and 15 minutes of searching on Reddit regarding their efficacy proves that they simply donโt work and cannot be relied upon. May I remind you that Hive is a content creator platform, and you are putting barriers in the way of creating content by insisting on tools that simply arenโt fit for purpose.
Agree - in certain ways we have too many people here obsessed to find mistakes and call out abusers / farmers while we let other big stake holders do their circle jerk which is more dangerous for Hive as an ecosystem.
For example, I just typed this now from my head after reading a couple of articles.
I thought yes, ok, a few mistakes there I will not correct it as it is human. Lol.
Then I added only the 3rd paragraph -all turned AI ????
The third paragraph by itself is human.
With wrong spelling but says AI, I will now need to put very obvious wrong grammar here to pass the detection, then wait for the sub to ban me. Lol.
Well to be honest - I worked in Sales for SaaS where AI is a key thing - and I can tell you most AI analysis trackers are shit as the entire AI hype mainly relies on bullshit - i am sure in one year this hype will be gone and true AI solutions will survive - not more to add here :-)
So -. if someone here tells you AI content ask the guy if he has any clue about AI tech or just uses templates for free - if they are free they are bad. And do not get touched if sheriffs attack you based on their usage of free useless tracking tools - they might be wrong but probably feel they are right - welcome to reality here on Hive
Haha, thatโs true, what you just said! To be honest, we should be helping each other, this initiative is excellent for Hive and for everyone. We should be thankful, help out, join in, and have fun, not be resentful or jealous. Otherwise, weโll never improve.
I checked all the downvotersโ and complainersโ articles, and they came out as non-AI in their favourite detector but AI in others. My point is: why make things difficult when this is meant for everyone? A kind, polite suggestion is far more helpful than appearing boastful.

Gosh - had no good internet last 4 days and seems i missed some drama - will need to check all by tomorrow.
The new rules make sense - think i mentioned some thought weeks / months ago already on trending / most viewed posts here where a lot was with declined/burned rewards and tthat i thought it looks a bit "strange" to the outside but all these did drive a lot traffic to Reddit by smart and intelligent content.
So next round will be different - not sure I can compete - too much work but will check what is doable.
Spot on, our dear @uwelang. You can write and embellish the content, but if itโs not interesting on Reddit, it wonโt drive much traffic to Hive. People want facts - not how well you wrote or how perfectly your title is constructed. A good topic and solid content drive traffic, and thatโs what weโre working on here: to drive traffic, not to win a writing competition. But we are pretty resilient, as proven, and surely any demand we can handle. ;)
Yes, it will take a lot of time, as in you have to allocate time for it now, you can't do it in between tasks as normal. Don't worry if you don't get a chance, I am gonna try and see but I love to see you around.
facts and a true interesting "story" which is not easy all the time - used to be my job in the past to drive proper storytelling - good though there is no easy recipe :-) - on Hive it is HivePower maybe (that attracts people to comment or can i call it be "slimy"?) - on Reddit they do not give a shit about Voting Power, they are often asses but they are honest (all depending on the subreddit) - and I appreciate them as a bit more intelligent and critical as other platforms including Hive.
Yeah on reddit they don't care about all that travel or food blogs we have on hive, or all the random photography... Not to mention all the crypto spammed news...
true - but crypto is still relevant to some subreddits - I think as in all areas the "story" is key, ideally a story that is new or different and attracts people - the challenge for every PR folks around the world :-)
Yep, a story or a news that not already spread everywhere, yet is very interesting
Oh my usual second place is again on me!
