WATCH OUT!!! (Little things that will cost you an infraction)

[YJOB]

---

Swearing, cursing and posting harsh comments could get you an infraction but there are other violations that you may not be aware of.

These little things may look innocent but they can cost you 1 infraction point. You may have thought that you have read and understood the rules, yet there are some things that you may have missed out.

I'll be posting this on other sections as well.

-----

• Max of 3 smiley's with post. Use smileys as scarcely as you possibly can. Posts which contains nothing but smileys are discouraged and will be deleted on sight. Each smiley serves a particularly specific purpose, but also can be a tad annoying if used in excess.
• Senseless and irrelevant posts are discouraged. If you don't have anything to say, don't post anything at all. This refers to "No Comment" or "Wala lang pahipi lang ko" type of posts. only 3 successive OT's are allowed.
• Do not sell/advertise outside Buy / Sell / Trade / Classifieds. Some of you may have thought that the entire Commerce forum is Buy & Sell. No, it's not. Business & Economics is not part of BSTC either, therefore, no selling or advertising should be done there or in any other section of this website aside from BSTC. One of the most common practices is making Career Center a business center. You can't advertise your trainings, seminars or services in Career Center especially if it comes with a price. If you plan to bump your training/seminar topic later, then you better post it under BSTC.
  
• Needless bumping / Bumping out of Buy & Sell - Bumping of topics without any valid or justifiable reason is strictly prohibited. You are only allowed to bump your own threads when in the Buy / Sell / Trade / Classifieds forum. There are so many threads outside BSTC that are being bumped every now and then. Always keep in mind that you are not allowed to "Up ta ani!, Up for today!" your thread if it is not inside Buy & Sell. In other words, only those threads that sell or advertise may be bumped. For threads inside BSTC, a maximum of 1 bump every 12 hours is allowed. By the way, bump is short for "bring up my post".
  
• Thread Hi-Jacking / Advertising in another's thread - Newbies, please wait until you become a Junior member. Do not hitch a ride in another thread to sell or advertise your stuff. Others may even use ninja tactics to inject their ads into innocent looking replies.
• Thread crapping will not be tolerated. If you are not interested in buying or selling, or you have nothing to say, stay out of the thread. If you think the asking price is too high, or you want to make a lowball offer, contact the seller through his/her contacts.

Hi, bro Yjob.

I have a question regarding "Advertising" sa Destinations Section sa Forum.

Ako friend nagpost ug info sa mga resorts na amo naadto-an ug naganahan. nagbutang cya pictures, location, contact and price information sa mga resorts para makatabang sa uban nga ganahan muadto or sa kato nga interesado sa lugar. Is this already considered as advertising?

Naka-receive man gud cya infraction, and i think it was for violating the rule na dili mag-advertise gawas sa Buy and Sell Section. But naghatag ra man sa cya ug information. kay naa man jud mangutana ug pila, unsaon pag adto, naa contact number sa establishment, etc.

Thanks

[YJOB]

It depends.
We review the thread and if ever proven that the poster is somehow connected to the said establishment/s being discussed we will give an infraction.

Thank you, Sir YJOB,for clearing that up. The mountain resort which my friend featured in the thread she started for which she received an infraction is owned and run by Ouanos. My friend is neither an Ouano nor is she closely connected with them. The place was recommended to one of our friends (not the TS) and nangadto gani mi na wala mi katultol sa lugar. We just really liked the place and the friendly service mao to gi-recommend pud dinhi sa akong friend to other iSTORYANs.

I think the way nya gi-post mura jud cya ud AD tan-awon. Pero if you check the other threads she started featuring other resorts, especially Batong Malunhaw, which is run and operated by the local government of Alegria, ana lang jud cya mu-post.

I hope ma-review ang infraction kay i think it was disheartening on her part. I assure you, Sir YJOB, that my friend is not connected with the establishment other than being a very satisfied customer.

This account I'm handling right now is owned by one of our personnel here in the resort before.
and as far as I know this account was muted for infractions.like advertising out of buy and sell.

Right now I'm running and reading all the forum rules in this website. Hope you can help me with it.

Right now the resort is under new management. So we change also our marketing aspects.

Posting pictures and rates in destination forum is illegal?
Why some are posting pictures and prices? isn't that considered advertising?


Hope you can help me educate with this rules. My account is not a newbie but I am consider myself one.

Thanks. Hope to hear from you soon!.
