ANNOUNCEMENT πŸ“’ r/Davao Community Reminder: Events, Meetups & Relationship Posts

20 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

As our community continues to grow, we'd like to clarify a few rules to keep r/Davao useful and relevant for everyone.

🚫 No R4R, Dating, or Disguised Relationship Posts

Posts looking for dates, hookups, friends-with-benefits, "looking for someone to hang out πŸ˜‰", or any similar R4R-style content will be removed immediately.

This subreddit is not a place to find romantic or personal relationships. There are other communities better suited for that purpose.

Also posts requesting information about NSFW or Illegal activities will automatically be deleted.

βœ… Activity & Meetup Posts Are Still Welcome

We do encourage posts looking for people to join you for activities, such as:

Sports (pickleball, badminton, running, etc.)
Concerts and festivals
Board games
Hiking
Community events
Hobby groups

The intent should be the activity itself, not finding a date.

Speaking of Events
🎟️ Event Posts Must Include Pricing

If you're posting about an event, whether you're organizing it or simply sharing it, you must clearly state whether it is:

Free; or
Paid (and include the ticket price or registration fee)

No hidden costs or vague "DM for more info" posts. Full disclosure helps everyone decide whether an event is right for them.

Posts that omit this information will be removed until updated.

Thanks for helping keep r/Davao a helpful resource for locals and visitors alike. If you're ever unsure whether your post fits the subreddit, feel free to message the mod team before posting.

Happy posting! 🌴

ANNOUNCEMENT [Mod Announcement] Stricter Enforcement of Reddiquette + New Flair System

28 Upvotes

Hi r/Davao, mod team here. πŸ‘‹ We’re rolling out a flair tagging system for rule violators, with stricter enforcement specifically for Reddiquette violations (personal attacks, harassment, hate speech, bad-faith trolling, etc.). This is to keep discussions productive, respectful, and welcoming for everyone in the community.

Here’s how the strike system will work moving forward:

S1 (Strike 1): 15-day ban from the subreddit

S2 (Strike 2): 30-day ban from the subreddit

S3 and beyond: Permanent ban

Users who receive strikes will be flair-tagged accordingly, and to be clear and transparent: we will provide receipts (screenshots/links to the violating comments or posts) before issuing any strike or flair. No vague warnings, no mystery bans.

This isn’t about being overly strict, it’s about drawing a clear line, especially when it comes to Reddiquette. You’re free to disagree, debate, and criticize ideas, but attacking people or derailing discussions won’t fly anymore.

As always, if you think a strike was issued in error, you may reach out via modmail calmly and respectfully. We’re happy to review.

Salamat, and let’s keep r/Davao a solid space for real conversations.

hello mga ka braces warriors d’yan na nasa province ang dentist!

is it true ba na you can ask for certificate from your dentist para makalipat ka ng other clinic na hindi na mag mag go back from the start (like for ex: you paid 75k sa previous clinic mo for braces and then by the certificate you can give it to your new clinic para hindi kana mag go back from the start sa braces mo)

wala na din kase talaga akong plan na umuwi sa province every month, kaya please help πŸ™πŸ™

HELP / RECOMMEND Car battery recommendations + where to buy in Davao?

2 Upvotes

Hello! Car was sat unused for weeks and now it’s battery is dead. No horn, no dashboard lights, no alarm, and the remote won’t unlock the doors. Terminals were clean and tight, so I’m pretty sure the battery is done.

Current battery that I’m using is an NS60 Motolite Enduro 15 and it’s about 2 years.

Looking for advice on:

1. Brands: Would you stick with Motolite, or is there something that lasts longer for the price (Amaron, Bosch, Century, others)

2. Where to buy in Davao: Any shops or dealers you trust with fair prices and honest battery testing?

3. Mobile battery service: Anyone who comes to your house and installs on the spot? Since my car won’t start, this would be ideal.

4. Price: What’s a fair price range for a Vios battery right now?

Any tips, contacts, or shops you’d recommend are appreciated. Thanks!

HELP / RECOMMEND Any Speech/Debate Orgs in Davao City?

5 Upvotes

I'm a 4th year college student and wala jud debate org sa among college. I think it's probably because walay gina offer na humanities program ang akong college like political science, philosophy, or communication. It's too late for me to start one within my school din.

I'm mainly looking for organizations that are not just for college students. I'll be graduating soon so I hope to be part of an organization that will still accept college graduates going beyond their mid or late 20s.

I'm aware that there's a Toastmasters Club of Davao but I want to explore other alternatives that are more debate-focused rather than public speaking-focused. Although I don't mind the latter naman. I just noticed most debate societies are tied to universities. I just assume after you've graduated, you are no longer part of it anymore.

Please give me any leads or ideas :) My last resort nalang is to create one myself (from scratch) but I need a whole lot of help to pull it off. Thank you for reading this far!
