Resolved Giveaways & Discounts

[Spy]

We have a section for Giveaways & Discounts (https://officeoutlaw.com/forums/giveaways-discounts.47/), but I want to specifically address the "Discount" aspect. It could be exploited by spammers who offer extra discounts just to promote their services even if they are not traders?

To prevent this Z, you might need to set some rules to regulate discount promotions. What do you think?

I was under the impression that it would be only for Traders with active threads, but yeah would definitely need to sub forum rulings for that section!

You make an excellent point! We should add a rule in there that it can't be for your own products and services. @Impulse is working on this right now.

Still, we'll sort something out for traders so they have an option to offer their own discounts.

I just published our rules for that section: https://officeoutlaw.com/threads/giveaways-discounts-section-rules.229/

As you pointed out, the discoutns option could have been exploited, so self-promotion is prohibited for that section.
