Is posting a contest allowed?

[elyorman]

Hello guys.
I would like to ask if I am okay to hold a "signature contest" on bitcointalk? And is it okay if I am going to pay with the tokens? If yes where exactly I would better share it? Thank you in advance! Any hints and extra advises would be more than welcome!

if you are going to pay with anything other than bitcoin you can't post it in services board. you'll probably have to post it in altcoin marketplace board.

it is not clear what you mean by "signature contest", if it is something like make the best bbcode signature and you pay the best which you choose to use later then it has been done before so it is allowed.
but if it is something like "spam the forum with most posts and pay the top ones" then it is not allowed obviously.

You mean signature campaign? If so, Yes to both questions.

If yes where exactly I would better share it?  

If you pay in tokens, then the Bounties (Altcoins) board is the proper section to post it (Link: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=238.0)

If possible, hire a reputable manager to run your signature campaign or better yet have an escrow. Hunters will be more than happy if the campaign they are joining is well managed and that they will surely get paid.

Oh not campaign it was contest for creating a signature of our company. Later yes, we will be using them for ourselves and for bounty campaigns. I know there's service section but I am not sure if I can pay with tokens there. In other words I wanna hire someone to create signatures for my company and will be fine with getting paid with tokens.

If that's the case, I second pooya87's suggestion on where to post (Service Discussion maybe).
It's the first time I've seen someone offering to pay in tokens for sig codes and I'm not also sure if someone will take it but you can still try.

When you do launch your bounty campaign, I still suggest you hire a reputable manager and escrow.

A great designer will probably not accept your offer if your token is not yet on the market. Why not hire and pay somebody for as low as $15 bucks?

None listed tokens you mean I suppose, because in the Altcoins marketplace you can find sig creators accepting altcoins.

Yes, that's what I was thinking. OP already mentioned he/she wants to pay using his/her company tokens.

surely we will do it. Just wanted to check it out first. Maybe someone receives tokens as well.

Check this link, a list of designers of the forum. Some are into tokens, you can ask them if they would love to accept it for the signature.

It would be a hard sell to find someone willing to accept a token for payment for a service, but you say it is being traded, so the designer will have to look at the trading volume to see if it is worth his/her time to accept the token and then to sell it. 

You would be much better off to just offer Bitcoin payment for the service, because people will be more than willing to help you, if you offered a more acceptable payment option.

Good luck with your project.

Just sell some of your tokens and pay the designer in proper currency (e.g. BTC). That's still ethically questionable (dumping your own token) but at least you're not shifting the risk on somebody else.

It's ok as long  as it is posted in the right section, and since you are going to pay with your own token, you should post in the bounty section on the altcoin categories go here to post your bounty https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=238.0

Signature contest sounds new to me I wonder what kind of signature contest is this, but if you have a good project and with potential, you will not have a hard time getting participants.

It is better to edit any subsequent reply after you've posted on a thread into the first one. Posting consecutively on a thread is not allowed.

You need a service and for this you do not need a contest. On the service board lots of users are available to design signatures and they have samples of their work on display and some also show their price range. Look for the one that suits your requirements and reach out to them.
