Giveaway threads are not allowed

[mprep]

We are thinking about doing a bounty campaign. Is there a post where is explained, what is exactly allowed in a giveaway?

See https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3953664.0:

Accepting signups or requiring proof of participation for tasks requiring substantial effort (e.g. signature campaign signups, weekly social media campaign reports, media (videos, images, articles, etc.) bounty signups, etc.) via a thread posted in Bounties (Altcoins) is allowed though.

I'd recommend checking out the other pinned thread on the Bounties (Altcoins) board.

So if I'm expected to promote, and grow the community for using this campaign as a basis - https://superb.games/campaign am I still allowed to create a thread in the bounty section? We're raffling x amount of the things you see on the website, and to enter said raffle we expect members to complete tasks directed at growing said community.

What am I allowed to do and what am I not allowed when interacting with the forum here?

If entering your raffle doesn't require users to post on a Bitcointalk thread (no "post in our ANN thread" task, accepting entries off-forum (e.g. via Google Forms)), there are no restrictions on whether the task is low effort or not. If you do accept raffle entries via your Bitcointalk bounty thread, you are not allowed to accept entries for "low effort tasks (e.g. signups or proof of participation for liking, following, subscribing, retweeting, tweeting a single tweet, joining a channel or group, etc.)" (from https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3953664.0).

The name doesn't matter. If it matches the description outlined in this thread's OP or the pinned threads in Bounties (Altcoins) it's not allowed.

Most giveaway threads are no longer allowed in the Alternate cryptocurrencies sections. From now on, posting or replying to such threads could result in being banned. Existing threads will be locked.

Specifically, you are not allowed to give people any incentive to post insubstantial posts in your threads. You can't offer to pay people who post their addresses, usernames, etc. You can do giveaways off-site and link to the giveaway page in a thread, but you can't give people any bonus for replying to your thread.

Similar threads are already restricted to Games and Rounds in the non-altcoin sections, but the giveaway-related post volume is so high in the altcoin sections that I've decided to just ban them entirely here.

Wait.

I've brought more than 500 people in this forum with my twitter giveaways.
What I'm supposed to do now? Tell them BCT owner doesn't like giveaways?

I'm sending a lot of traffic here. Either make a new subforum for forums or find a solution.
Get a new HDD/SSD just for that section, if that's the problem. I'll pay the cost.

I'm not 'paying' them to bump my topic, I'm giving them coins for tasks.


EDIT: From now on I'll name my topics [TASK], instead of [Giveaway].

True most persons have made a fortune or two from this
