Forum Advertising

[UNKNOWN ARTIST]

Jason already brought up this issue ..... but the thread got lost before it could be properly enforced so lets clear this shit up once and for all

O.K ..... Everybody who regularly uses the forums are aware of the rules on advertisng your battles ... You all know it's against the rules to send a link by private message or drop a link on peoples profiles because it singles out a specific person that will 9 times outta 10 feel obliged to vote for you ... especially taking into account the fact people only pm the type of person who will vote for them if they feel there's a chance of a return vote.... But advertising battles can't be competely outlawed because plenty of battles are genuinly slept on due to the fact people can't always reply straight away ... so the ONLY place you can advertise and leave a link to your battle is the forums ... because it's aimed at a wide range of people so hopefuly reduces the risk of biased votes...

but here's the issue that needs to be addressed

A lot of people make their advertising thread but leave a comment along the lines of

"fair votes will be returned"

Some of the people who make these threads may have the best intentions and are only offering the chance to give somebody else's slept on battle the chance to get some votes .... but .... if this is acceptable all it does is offer a way for people to keep on riding for votes and flaunt the rules.

obviously this needs to be taken care of

So i'm gonna sticky this and just to be fair the first time i see somebody leave a "fair votes will be returned" comment on a battle thread i'll link them to this .... but if it happens again you will receive infraction points which will end up in an automatic ban if the problem persists

don't be too worried if your names on this list ... it's just so i can keep track of who's aware of the rule ... so it can't be used as an excuse

Nah just playin man, thanks for posting this. I myself can't deny i have used the phrase "Fairs will be returned", but only with the intentions of voting FAIRLY on somebody's battle.

well ..... now you know ..... how'd u feel if you were battling the biggest rider on the site and he dropped a thread saying "all fair votes will be returned "

without a set in stone rule we'd have to let that shit slide which would make a total mockery of the original pm for votes rule

Finally this is enforced haha. Idea's been out there for almost a year now. I'm still in favor of the be able to pm FVC members thing though. The people in the FVC are obviously honest enough to not just vote for the person who'd send otherwise they wouldn't have been mod approved for the list. I get pm's once or twice a week asking for a fair vote and I always vote unbiased. I don't really even go into the thread anymore because it's basically link spam and there's not a ton of motivation to dedicate a ton of time voting on pages of battles. There could even be a modify to the list where next to the name of the member it says whether they will accept pm's or not if anything as to not force every member into this idea if it's an issue. Just throwing this out there.

You can move this post from this thread if you want since it's kind of irrelevant.

MASTR has a good point about PM'ing the FVC for battles getting slept on. The FVC are obviously trusted, i think they can be seen as another set of Mods, but obviously with less power.

Battles getting slept on is a BIG problem, and what are FVC and mods there for? Fixing problems, I.E - FVC take care of the problem where there have been hate votes, riding votes or just no votes at all.

But yeh, thats another story ^

Nah .... the FVC can't be pm'd for votes regardless of how fair they are with their voting .... i don't know if you've noticed but half the site put "FVC" after their votes so it'd lead to far too much confusion .... so anybody pm'ing you to vote on battles should get a response telling them it's against the rules ... either that or a screenshot and an auto loss .... but as for the FVC thread being "basicaly like spam" .... no matter how bogged down with comments it is ... any time i've went through it to vote on battles there's only around 5 or so battles still actualy open for votes ..... so if everybody in the FVC looked though the thread it'd easily serve it's purpose
