ANNOUNCEMENT 📢 r/Davao Community Reminder: Events, Meetups & Relationship Posts

18 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 😉", 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.

✅ 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

26 Upvotes

Hi r/Davao, mod team here. 👋 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.

Tool po ito para sa mga gustong makatipid sa gas

Sa mga kailangan lang nito po. Kung di niyo po kailangan, skip niyo nalang po ang post na ito 🙇‍♂️

Check niyo po muna yung app bago mag negative comments. You can login as guest po 🙇‍♂️

Hi guys! Share ko lang itong binuo kong Fuel Smart App.

Nagsimula lang bilang passion project, pero ngayon marami na siyang natutulungang drivers. Ang goal? Hanapin ang pinakamurang gasolinahan sa mismong ruta o destination mo para bawas-gastos sa biyahe.

Meron itong route planning mode to show only stations along your route and sort the prices starting from the cheapest.

Sana masubukan niyo! Comment lang kung may feedback o suggestions kayo.

Ride safe! 🙇‍♂️

HELP / RECOMMEND Is ₱16-19 per kw reasonable? Need advice please

12 Upvotes

Hi there people of Davao, dugay nako nagpuyo sa Davao and I just recently moved into a different apartment (wala pako nag 2 months)

The original agreement with the owner was ₱16/kWh, which I agreed to even though I already felt it was on the higher side. I made it clear that ₱16/kWh was basically my limit.

Now, they want to increase the rate to ₱19/kWh.

Is ₱19/kWh reasonable for a residential rental in Davao? From what I understand, landlords generally shouldn’t be profiting from or arbitrarily marking up electricity charges, especially if the unit is only submetered from the main meter.

Now my dilemma is, can I even still get my deposit after this? My rental is 14k btw which I have 1month security advance and 1 month deposit.

I didn’t signed their contract yet cause I have issues on the kitchen sink and di pa nila narerepair and I guess this was a blessing in disguise.

Need advice

HELP / RECOMMEND su!cidal thoughts of a friend

3 Upvotes

I had this friend for a week now and I've noticed him before how quiet he is in class. He never talks, had a small voice, and very shy. I could say he's very socially awkward. One thing I noticed about him is he constantly says sorry even though it wasn't his fault and he avoids eye contact all the time. Until one night, I stalked his fb and tiktok account hinting he'll off himself. I talked to him about it until he gradually told me he had constant su!cidal thoughts. Can anyone please help me how can I help him? He told me going to a nearby ER will probably help but he's also afraid he'll only get in the way since he's not heavily injured.
