Giveaway threads are not allowed

[yusuf98]

Seems like a good idea. It was getting out of control and it's encouraging them even more to create and market 1000000 new cryptos that just saturate the market...

If it's good that not all coin is going to trade it for new coins

why the giveaway thread is not allowed and allow reviews major forget.
create and market new cryptos new 1,000,000 saturating the market

you do not own this forum you are not a stockholder in the company that owns this forum and there's no one here that is interested in your opinion in any way shape or form.

A lot of new projects are doing giveaways while calling them airdrops.

A lot of new projects are doing giveaways while calling them airdrops.

Though they are linking them off-site which is what you are allowed to do.

Most are hosted on other Forums as you would see & they are spammed hard, hence why Bitcointalk made away with it.

Does this also include bounties for translations (example)?

Bounty for work done (e.g. translations) are not giveaways.  In loosest context it's more like contract work being done on spec.  I do think some of the newer "airdrops" fall very close to being giveaways and I'm a little perplexed at how some recent sig/bounty campaigns have been clamped down on whilst some VERY sketchy airdrop threads are able to run unchecked.

I don't like being a dick, but i think i'm going to start reporting up more of those threads to the mods.  Recently some long running ANNs were locked due to relatively minor infractions, and I fear many scam airdrop threads go unattended.

It's okay to ban the giveaway, To learn earn own strategy. There are some threads in bitcointalk that will teach you how to earn. Just read the threads ''how to earn''

[richard7777777]

I'm a noob here, trying to understand how all is working. Following some threads here and you get invited to post in this forum in exchange for some new coins. That sounds appealing, right?  But it paid posts makes a forum weak, because it encourage spamming. I still like to make some new coins, but I hate spamming, so it is a good initiative!

Why would ppl even rely on giveaway if they can mine their own future...

[casey.anthony195]

That is good to know, not that I planned to start any giveaways myself, but some of my partners will find this information rather useful.

I also think that they both bouties and giveaway create events held by certain parties (usually coin developers etc) to share their coins for free and legal.

I heard there are new policies for all signature campaigns(people can post wherever they want now, bounty managers can't force users to post in specific threads or sections anymore) but I don't know where we can find these new policies.
Does anyone know where we can find that please?

It is good that the altcoin giveaway related post volume and program are put under control in other to avoid insubstantial post or spamming the forum. I check the OP page of this topic and I found out that this rules was created since January 27, 2014. I would like to know if this rule is still active due to what I'm seeing lately.
