Are members allowed to sell sigs for minerals? Like asking for minerals. If no, then I shall rename the "Request/Offer/Sell My Signatures" topic and invisibilize the posts asking for minerals. I shouldn't fine them because the topic says that they can sell stuff there.
Anyway, educate me.
I do it. (Although Nuke just said to put that in and can't really pay me.)
I thought the rule was you can't ask for minerals unless you are giving something; selling sig space is giving advertisement space.
Lets say Bob wants to advertise his map, but Bob doesn't post every 5 seconds so nobody really pays attention to him.
Now lets say Joe comes along and posts every 5 seconds so everyone knows Joe, and Joe happens to be selling sig space. Bob can (hopefully) buy the space and advertise his map.
I don't see any problem with that. Its just a simple trade.
Can I get a clear answer please. I'm for trading sigs, so I'm just wondering.
Well before the hacking attack the offer/request/sell thread was Yoshi's, so I assume we're aloud. There's no rule expressly forbidding it.
No, they shouldn't be sold. Technically you don't "own" them, and signature editing powers can be revoked at any time.
So, should I kick in and stop the market from running?
Uh, if they're selling signature IMAGES as a service to make signatures, that's fine. But if they're selling actual SPACE WITHIN THEIR SUGNATURE, that's bad.
They
were selling already made signatures for 75-100 mins per piece. Well, they won't anymore.
I don't think you understand what I'm saying, I have no problem with what they're doing. If they're putting "YOUR AD HERE FOR 50 MINERALS PER WEEK" in their signature, that isn't fine. Putting up an image with "Your name here for 100 minerals", there's nothing wrong with that.

I think that you mean "your' ad here isn't fine."
Bah, I though we're talking about selling sig images. Sorry.
