Advertising, Self Promotion, or Begging
General Advertising or Self Promotion
Sharing external Discord invites or inviting others to a different server is grounds for an immediate ban. Our community is not a conduit for other servers, and exploiting it in this manner goes against the purpose of the server and is considered highly disrespectful. This includes indirect invites such as, "DM me to join my server." or urging others to join an alternative server within public channels.
Users are prohibited from self-promoting their content. This encompasses social media, Twitch, YouTube, and similar platforms. Exploiting the community in this manner, particularly by newly joined members, may result in a strict mute or immediate ban. However, sharing general artwork or other content (with discretion) is generally permitted and acceptable to post.
Transactions
ANY attempts to sell, trade, or buy anything is a permanent ban. This does not include, for example:
User1: posts picture of some thing
User2: wow cool, where can I get that?
User1: I found it on eBay, <link>
In this scenario, no one is directly engaging in selling, trading, or buying. This involves an exchange of information that would constitute an off-platform transaction, not directly associated with our members.
User1: who's trying to play my ark server, dm me for invite
Despite no response, User1 is to be banned for attempting to poach members for their server, clearly they have their own server so there's no reason for them to stay other than to poach.
User1: Does anyone have a Discord account I can buy?
User2: Yes, dm me!
In this example, both User1 and User2 are to be banned for facilitating a transaction on the server. Account buying is also specifically against Discord ToS.
User1: Selling Carch eggs high dmg for $3 Paypal
Despite no response, User1 is to be banned for attempting to facilitate a transaction on the server. Nobody should be paying or be paid to play the game.
User1: yeah just got some sick gear on Bams Ark
User2: hell yeah same here, tryina tribe up?
User1: sure thing hmu when you get on
In this scenario no one is specifically poaching members, they both play on another server so its okay to mention it as long as they're not obviously trying to bring more members to it.
Shameless Begging
Absolutely no begging for games, DLC, money, VC, or any form of labor is permitted. Likewise, soliciting payment for trades, whether sending or receiving, is strictly prohibited. Engaging in such activities will result in a ban. In essence, the server is not to be used for any form of real world transactions.
