From the announcement of Sportsbet.io team, here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.52100140
People kept spamming in their ANN thread.
I suggested them to open threads in Games & Rounds:
I think such above posts belong to Games & Rounds.. I am not sure, because in fact I don't have too much experience in this one, but it seems already mentioned here:
To be specific, I'm referring to "Post in this thread for free x". That belongs in Games and Rounds. Though it isn't limited to that, in general you shouldn't be giving people incentives to post in your thread, it's disruptive to actual discussion.
So, how do you all think about that?
Personally, I do think it is safer to have a new thread in Games & Round for this promotion.
Sporstbet.io likely agreed with my suggestion, but not yet started threads in Games & Rounds; and people kept spamming in that thread.
Hello,

I see the point you are trying to make, and I don't disagree with it.

We want this particular promo to be eligible and visible to the users on this thread who have been here engaging with us and individually with each other.

Further promos down the track we may consider the link you provided.

Thanks for the question/suggestion.

Regards,
Steve,
Sportsbet.io
I read the rule, and its seems that promotions/give aways in ANN threads are not allowed, right? I don't offend Sportsbet.io team, because I like them. Just want to understand more about forum rules a little bit, from this real case.
