Title: Please advise on the rules to the forum
Post by: warlock72 on November 19, 2014, 07:51:20 PM
Hi I posted links to to faucets I found that where paying 2000 and 3x 1000 but the post was deleted. Is that against forum rules? I cant find  the rules to the forum so thought I would ask. As it is the faucet that was paying 2000 satashi last night is now only paying 100 for the time being today. something about problems with google adwords.  ??? So nobody is missing anything.

Just want to be clear on what I can and can't post. Or if someone would be good enough to point me to the rules page. Thank you :)

I'm sure if I'm wrong the others will correct me on this but I'm pretty sure giveaways and faucets get deleted now because they get spammed around too much and it's for such a small amount of money as well really.

I think they can be put in the announce or OP's of their respective coins and in your sig. Same for pools and other coin services.

Did you use referral links? If so, there's your answer.

i think you just need to remove any referral links and you should be fine.

if its promotion, you can check the gambling sub section that does give aways.

i think the rule on refferal links need to changed a bit to something like thebotnet use. for example referral links are allowed alsong as a non refferal link is also provided

but yeh anything with referal links gets deleted.

Don't make threads just to post your referral link, we've all seen the sites a hundred times, it's just spam.

That still will cause people to spam the threads all over in the hope that people will click on their links. Do we really need newbs creating several threads a day about how you can get 200 satoshis an hour or whatever on freesatoshis.org?
